“…This number rose slightly in 2010 to 82%, and the most recent national data indicates that 85% of first-time test takers passed the exam in 2012, which closely aligns with pass rates prior to the exam structure change (see Figure 1) (NBCOT, 2013b(NBCOT, , 2013c. interaction between a person's previous knowledge and experience and the learning environment (Sutinen, 2008). This view of learning aligns with the modern, holistic approach set forth by OT models of practice, such as the PersonEnvironment-Occupation Model (Law et al, 1996).…”

The AOTA and ACOTE have discussed a transition to a mandated entry-level clinical doctorate degree (Harvison, 2013). Following the move to the entry-level master's degree in 2007, the overall national pass rate on the national certification examination fell from 88% in 2006 to 77% by 2009 (Harvison, 2011Harvison, 2012). This study sought to determine if the number of graduate credits offered or the class size of an entrylevel master's program impacts student outcomes on the national certification examination. Publicly available data was mined from all accredited entry-level master's programs. Data were imported into the SPSS for statistical analysis. The results indicated no significant relationship between the number of graduate credits offered and pass rates (p = 0.919) or between average class size and pass rates (p = 0.640). Further study is warranted to determine if there are any curricular characteristics that can be used to predict student performance on the national certification examination.

Background: Nowadays, young people face several health challenges. As children and teenagers spend most of their time in the classroom, schools may have the opportunity to positively influence students’ quality of life, playing a crucial role in fostering their health. The aim of this review was to analyze evidence that demonstrated why school is the ideal setting for thepromotion of young generations’ wellbeing. Methods: We have reviewed the available literature about health promotion in school setting, searching for articles and books published from 1977 to 2020. A total of 74 articles and 17books were selected and assessed. Results: The promotion of students’ wellbeing could reduce the prevalence of measurable unhealthy outcomes and improve their academic achievements. At least 80% of all cases of heart diseases, strokes, type 2 diabetes and one third of all cancers can be prevented through health education. In this perspective, primary prevention and health promotion should start as early as possible, finding in the school the ideal setting of action. Effective school-based preventive approaches should raise students’ motivation towards a personal interiorization of health knowledge and develop in young people a critical thinking about harmful consequences of the most common risky behaviours. Educators should receive adequate training concerning health topics and become expert in the most innovative approaches to effectively engage students in adopting healthy lifestyles. Conclusion: As primary educational institution, school should integrate students’ health promotion in its ordinary teaching and learning practices in the perspective of "better health through better schools".

“…Based on this assumption, the students of the Educational Informatics subject had to carry out an exhaustive analysis and study of it in order to design -, in groups of 4 people -, an innovative project in the educational use of digital tools for a school context very defined and close to reality. [14] Once the teachers established the bases of the project, they had to translate them into a document, following defined guidelines in the classroom, which were called Model 5Q. This model consisted of several sections, from which the students presented the delimited project by answering 5 fundamental questions ( Fig.…”

This article develops the proposal of a disruptive innovation in learning methodologies based on active activity through digital transformation. The vertiginous changes that have taken place a few decades ago with respect to the advancement of knowledge and technology, encompass educational processes. Traditional teacher-centered teaching has led to student-centered learning, seeking to develop the skills necessary for performance beyond the professional field. There are tools or supports based on current knowledge that can set trends in the educational process. The portable tool for universities to quickly and up-to-date access to information are digital devices, the use of which is becoming popular in education.
