  • learning opportunities and learning behaviours of small business starters relations with goal achievement Skill Development and satisfaction
    Small Business Economics, 2005
    Co-Authors: Marco Van Gelderen, Lidewey Van Der Sluis, Paul Jansen
    Abstract:

    Learning is a vital issue for small business starters, contributing to short- and long-term business performance, as well as to personal Development. This study investigates when and how small business starters learn. It specifies the situations that offer learning opportunities, as well as the learning behaviours that small business starters can employ in order to learn from these opportunities. In a cross-sectional, quantitative study of recently started small business founders, learning opportunities and learning behaviours are related to three outcome measures: a performance outcome (goal achievement), a personal growth outcome (Skill Development), and an affective evaluation outcome (satisfaction). The results show the importance of learning opportunities and learning behaviours in influencing these outcome variables, albeit not always in the directions we hypothesized.

  • a conceptual model for clinical psychomotor Skill Development in an era of simulated and virtual reality
    European Journal of Endocrinology, 2021
    Co-Authors: Suzanne Perry, S M Bridges, Michael F Burrow
    Abstract:

    Psychomotor Skill Development is central to a beginner practitioner's learning pathway. Curriculum constraints around time, access to facilities and resources in health professions education have prompted the growth in alternative approaches to clinical Skill Development in both simulation and direct patient care. Among these is the increased incorporation of virtual reality (VR) systems with haptic feedback alongside traditional, solid simulations. Given the rapid growth in the adoption of technological affordances to support Skill Development, it is cogent to pause and examine whether the underpinning concepts regarding psychomotor Skill Development that have driven much of the approaches to teach clinical Skill acquisition in dentistry remain fit-for-purpose. This conceptual paper proposes a new taxonomy for clinical simulation psychomotor Skill Development in the era of increasing variety of simulation modalities.

  • does intervening in childcare settings impact fundamental movement Skill Development
    Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 2016
    Co-Authors: Kristi B Adamo, Shanna Wilson, Alysha L J Harvey, Kimberly P Grattan, Pattijean Naylor, Viviene A Temple, Gary S Goldfield
    Abstract:

    AB Purpose: Knowing that motor Skills will not develop to their full potential without opportunities to practice in environments that are stimulating and supportive, we evaluated the effect of a physical activity (PA)-based intervention targeting childcare providers on fundamental movement Skills (FMS) in preschoolers attending childcare centers. Methods: In this two-arm cluster-randomized controlled trial, six licensed childcare centers in Ottawa, Canada, were randomly allocated into one of two groups (three controls, n = 43; three interventions, n = 40). Participants were between the ages of 3 and 5 yr. Childcare providers in the experimental condition received two 3-h workshops and a training manual at program initiation aimed at increasing PA through active play and several in-center "booster" sessions throughout the 6-month intervention. Control childcare centers implemented their standard curriculum. FMS were measured at baseline and 6 months using the Test of Gross Motor Development-2. Results: Groups did not differ on sociodemographic variables. Compared with control, children in the intervention group demonstrated significantly greater improvement in their standardized gross motor quotient (score, 5.70; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.74-10.67; P = 0.025 and gross motor quotient percentile, 13.33; 95% CI, 2.17-24.49; P = 0.020). Over the 6-month study period, the intervention group showed a significantly greater increase in locomotor Skills score (1.20; 95% CI, 0.18-2.22; P = 0.022) than the control group. There was a significant decrease in the object control scores in the control group over the study period. Conclusions: A childcare provider-led PA-based intervention increased the FMS in preschoolers, driven by the change in locomotor Skills. The childcare environment may represent a viable public health approach for promoting motor Skill Development to support future engagement in PA.
