Adapted physical education programs for psychomotor development in school settings for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities: a systematic review / 中国康复理论与实践

ObjectiveTo analyze the effect of physical activity in an adaptive physical education program on the psychomotor development of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the school setting. MethodsLiterature related to adaptive physical education programs and psychomotor development for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities were retrieved from EBSCO, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and CNKI, from the establishment of the library to May, 2023, and systematically reviewed. ResultsSeven English literatures of randomized controlled trials were included, from four countries, involving 236 subjects, aged six to 18 years. The main sources were journals in the fields of sport and psychomotor, developmental disorders, adapted physical education, and children's psychomotor, with publication dates centered after 2016. Physical activity components of adaptive physical education programs in school settings primarily included muscle and balance training, perceptual-motor training, walking up and down stairs, aerobic exercise using equipment (e.g., treadmills, steppers, cross-trainers, and stationary bikes), sit-ups, jumping exercises, rhythmic activities, simultaneous static and dynamic balancing activities while focusing on visual inputs, changing positions at different rhythms and moving through space, breathing and stretching exercises, adapted table tennis motor skill training, ball control exercises, and hand-eye coordination exercises, with an intervention of light-moderate intensity, 45 to 60 minutes a time, one to five times a week, for eight to 24 weeks. The health benefit maily included the enhancement of rhythmic perception as well as the improvement of integrated visual, auditory, and tactile perception; improving muscular strength and endurance, total locomotor capacity and fine-motor capacity such as fine-motor integration, running speed and agility, and balance; improving physical flexibility and coordination, such as upper limb coordination, static balance, strength and flexibility; improvement of correct response, sustained response, and theoretical level of reactivity, and motor flexibility and agility; significant improvements in self-care (eating, dressing, and self-direction), increasing in the number of sit-ups to standard, increasing success in jumping for a ball, and improving motor skill proficiency and executive functioning. ConclusionThis systematic review constructed a PICO for the psychomotor development of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities participating in physical activity in the school setting with an adaptive physical education program based on the PRISMA guidelines. The adaptive physical education program may promote psychomotor development in children with intellectual and developmental disabilities in five main areas: perception, motor control, coordination, reaction time, and movement planning and execution.

Application of scientific research materials such as endemic diseases in the ideological and political education of "Environmental Hygiene" course / 中华地方病学杂志

"Environmental Hygiene" is one of the professional courses for undergraduates majoring in preventive medicine, which plays an important role in cultivating students' patriotism and consciousness of reform and innovation. However, due to the limitations of the traditional teaching mode of professional courses that focus on teaching professional knowledge and skills and pay little attention to ideological and political education, it fails to inspire students' consciousness of reform and innovation, and it is difficult to build a high-quality team of preventive medicine professionals with patriotic feelings. In this study, the classroom teaching and practical teaching of this course are fed back by scientific research achievements, expert's example demonstration, scientific research progress and scientific research practice of scientific researches such as endemic diseases, aiming to cultivate high-quality public health talents with firm ideals and beliefs, patriotic feelings, innovation ability and solidarity and collaboration spirit. This study can also provide reference for the study of ideological and political teaching of relevant professional courses.

Exploration and Practice of "Three-dimensional Teaching Concept Based on FACT" for Biochemistry / 中国生物化学与分子生物学报

Biochemistry is one of the basic disciplines of life sciences‚ and plays an important role in the undergraduate teaching of biology. However‚ the biochemistry course system is huge‚ and the knowledge is numerous. How to improve students' interest in learning‚ improve teaching effect‚ and promote course construction are important questions faced by many biochemistry teachers. Here the authors put forward the " three-dimensional teaching concept based on FACT" ‚ and take the biochemistry course construction of the School of Life Sciences‚ Sun Yat-sen University‚ as an example to analyze the connotation and practice of this teaching concept. " Three-dimension" is inspired by the " seemingly identical but actually different" concept of biological chiral molecules‚ which not only reflects the need for universities to carry out course construction based on their own actual situation and seek truth from facts with distinct characteristics‚ but also emphasizes the construction of a multi-dimensional course construction system. The authors will introduce the concept of " three-dimension" in “form” ‚ “angle” ‚ “content” and “team” in an all-round way. Moreover‚ the authors also conduct in-depth analysis from aspects such as teaching methods‚ second classroom‚ knowledge point logic‚ ideological and political education for courses‚ and teaching team construction‚ which has certain reference significance for peer teachers to carry out biochemistry course construction.

Analysis on the Connotation and Practice Path of Ideological and Political Construction of Medical Courses / 中国医学伦理学

The ideological and political construction of medical courses reveals the educational essence of "truth, goodness, and beauty" in medicine. Scientificity and humanity are the embodiment of "seeking truth" and "advocating goodness" in medicine, and the unity of their content and form reaches the highest level of "advocating beauty". Studying the ideological and political construction of medical courses plays an important role in implementing the fundamental task of fostering virtue through education, and carrying out the Healthy China initiative. In terms of teaching objectives, the goals of ideological and political education in medical courses should not only include the goals of basic literacy goals, such as political literacy, cultural literacy, legal literacy, and moral cultivation, but also include professional literacy goals, such as medical humanistic cultivation. Thus, a "five in one" model of ideological and political education in medical courses will be established. In the practical path, it is suggested to explore from five aspects that changing the educational concept and strengthening the educational awareness, establishing teaching objectives and clarifying education direction, digging deeply into the ideological and political elements and clearing teaching content, innovating teaching methods and improving teaching effectiveness, and constructing evaluation indicators and evaluating teaching effectiveness scientifically.

The integration of the great anti-epidemic spirit into the teaching of Outline of Modern Chinese History is an important content of the education and teaching reform of ideological and political courses in medical colleges in the post-epidemic era. The integration of them is helpful for optimizing the discourse system of "Outline" course, strengthening the political function of "Outline" course, and deepening the value guidance of "Outline" course. It is necessary to carefully study the teaching content of the "Outline" course, find out its similarities and integration with the great anti-epidemic spirit, and then, by basing on the main position of the classroom, building a large platform for practice, making good use of new network media and other specific paths, "genetically" embedded the great anti-epidemic spirit, the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China, the Marxist standpoint and methods, the remarkable advantages of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and the solid national strength of China into the teaching process, so as to improve the effectiveness of the "Outline" course and cultivate medical talents with firm political stance and noble medical ethics in the new era.

Research on the Organic Integration of Chinese Excellent Traditional Time Concept into the Ideological and Political Course Teaching in Medical Colleges and Universities / 中国医学伦理学

The excellent traditional Chinese time concept embodies and highlights the unique whole universe view of Chinese culture, which is harmonious with all things in heaven and earth, the gradual historical development view, and the life struggle view of calm and steady progress, having important value for the formation and shaping of contemporary medical students’ "three views". To organically integrate Chinese excellent traditional time concept, an important excellent traditional cultural resource, into the ideological and political courses of medical colleges and universities, it is necessary to integrate it with time awareness education of cultivating self-control and self-discipline of medical students, with the historical value education of cultivating self-confidence and self-reliance of medical students, and with the enterprising spirit education to strive for progress in stability under the ideological guidance of the Marxist time concept, the theoretical support of the essential statement on "two combinations" by general secretary Xi Jinping, and the mission guidance of the ideological and political course construction for medical colleges and universities in the new era. Promoting the reform and innovation of ideological and political courses of medical colleges and universities from the perspective of time concept can effectively help medical students in the new era build a systematic time consciousness, form a healthy time concept, and practice a scientific time management method, effectively constructing their humanistic rationality, cultural self-confidence, and historic initiative.

Multi-link Linkage Research on Medical Humanistic Education by Integrating Narrative Medical Materials / 中国医学伦理学

Taking the current situation and problems of medical humanities education as the background, the concept of narrative medicine was used to sort out and integrate various course materials of medical humanities, explore the multi-link linkage mode of medical humanities education, and organically integrate medical humanities courses scattered in medical education activities such as medical ethics, health law, doctor-patient communication, and health policy science with teaching stages, teaching resources, and teaching methods, forming vivid narrative medical materials throughout the entire process of medical humanities education, and improving teaching efficiency by sharing and optimizing resources. Through questionnaire analysis, it was found that there are many unsatisfactory aspects of medical humanities education. Further analysis of the issues focuses on the contradiction between learning willingness and time allocation, the lack of synchronization between teaching and social development, the lack of integration between courses, and insufficient innovation in teaching methods. Based on these, countermeasures were put forward to integrate narrative medical materials of medical humanities courses and build a platform for the application and communication of narrative medical materials.
