The importance of the international and social dimensions of learning in the post-COVID higher education: The case of ESCP business school

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has undoubtedly affected some trends in an irreversible way but will probably not impact significantly on certain aspects of cross-border higher education. Old and new challenges are reshaping the concept of international education, posing particular stress on the social dimension of the learning experience. This chapter uses the case of 'ESCP Business School', a truly international business school, headquartered in Paris, with seven campuses across six different European cities. The analysis of the multi-campus model of ESCP, as well as its innovative and unique pedagogical model with a specific focus on its approach during and immediately after the COVID-19 pandemic, could suggest potential paths to enhance student learning, and intercultural and social experience in a hybrid pedagogical setting for the next-normal. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

Remote intervention, in childhood and adolescence neuropsychiatry: Limits and effectiveness. Some clinical cases

The UOC of Neuropsychiatry of Childhood and Adolescence (NPIA) during the lockdown for the COVID-19-19 pandemic had to modulate the therapeutic and rehabilitative activities in progress, in order to adapt to current regulations. Only patients in charge of the service, already with diagnosis and treatment started, were treated remotely. Some remote interventions were effective, managing to overcome the outcome of on-site treatments, in terms of short-term goals achieved and generalizability of the results. The following work highlights the potential and limitations of this new methodology, which made it possible to educate caregivers, reorganize and adapt the home setting to the purposes of the intervention, ensuring the generalizability of the results. By evaluating the resources and limits of each taking charge, it was possible to assess the effectiveness of the methodology remotely, considering it functional, if integrated with on-site activities.

Sono stati trattati in modalita da remoto solo i pazienti in carico al servizio aventi gia una diagnosi e un trattamento avviato. Alcuni interventi da remoto sono risultati efficaci in termini di obiettivi raggiunti a breve termine e di generalizzabilita dei risultati, riuscendo a superare l'esito dei trattamenti in sede. Il lavoro che segue evidenzia le potenzialita e i limiti di tale nuova metodologia, che ha consentito di istruire i caregiver, di riorganizzare e di adattare il setting domestico alle finalita dell'intervento, garantendo la generalizzabilita dei risultati. Valutando le risorse e i limiti di ogni presa in carico e stato possibile vagliare l'efficacia della metodologia da remoto, ritenendola funzionale, se integrata con l'attivita in sede.
