Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund und Ziel Letzte-Hilfe-Kurse können Bürger befähigen, mehr Menschen ein Sterben zu Hause zu ermöglichen. Ziel der Studie ist die Evaluation der neu etablierten Letzte-Hilfe-Kurse für Kinder und Jugendliche.
Materialien und Methoden Neun Letzte-Hilfe-Kurse für Kinder und Jugendliche mit insgesamt 128 Teilnehmern von 9–17 Jahren wurden durchgeführt. Die Evaluation basiert auf mixed-methods und erfolgte mittels eines Fragebogens.
Ergebnisse 120 von 128 Teilnehmern (94 %) nahmen an der Evaluation teil. Die Teilnehmer schätzten die Möglichkeit, über Tod und Sterben zu reden. 94 % fanden den Kurs hilfreich für alle und 92 % wollen ihn weiterempfehlen. 89 % fanden die Kursinhalte leicht zu verstehen.
Schlussfolgerungen und Ausblick Die Kurse für Kids/Teens werden von den Teilnehmern sehr gut angenommen. In Zukunft sollten die Kurse weiter verbreitet und in die Schulcurricula aufgenommen werden, um Informationen und Austausch zu Sterben und Begleitung am Lebensende zu ermöglichen.
In order to empower citizens to care for seriously ill and dying people at home Last Aid Courses have been started in Norway, Germany and Denmark in 2014/2015. The main aims of the Last Aid movement are to raise citizen’s awareness and knowledge of Palliative Care and to empower them to care for seriously ill and dying people at home. As children do often have contact with seriously ill and dying people in their families a Last Aid Course for children aged 8-14 years was established. The first pilot course has shown that the children appreciate the Last Aid Course concept and suggests that children want to talk open about death and dying. Scientific evaluation should be an integrated part of the further work and implementation of Last Aid Courses for children and teenagers in different countries
In this article, we examine several important issues for special educators in the implementation of cooperative learning. To address effectively the needs of students with mild disabilities in regular classrooms and curricula requires a multi-faceted approach that incorporates the dynamics of reciprocal collaboration, cooperative learning, teaming, and effective instructional support technaques. The need for a collaborative ethic among general and special educators is descrihed. The efficacy of cooperative learning that focuses upon achievement outcomes especially related to students with mild disabilities is reviewed. The components of a cooperative approach that enhances the integration of students with mild disabilities and fosters high achievement levels are discussed, as well as a schoolwide restructuring model designed to embrace student diversity and enhance the achievement of all students, including students with mild disabilities, in regular classrooms.
