“…From a perspective of IT's contribution to development [15,50], economic benefits come from the improvements achieved in operational efficiency and resource management, resulting in the reduction of administrative costs and the possibility of greater investment in strategic areas. The implementation of AGHU has contributed to decision-making by health managers based on concrete information, improving strategic planning and resource allocation in each hospital and globally in the hospital network.…”

Governments around the globe are paving the way for healthcare services that can have a profound impact on the overall well-being and development of their nations. However, government programs to implement health information technologies on a large-scale are challenging, especially in developing countries. In this article, the process and outcomes of the large-scale implementation of a hospital information system for the management of Brazilian university hospitals are analyzed. Based on a qualitative approach, this research involved 21 hospitals and comprised a documentary search, interviews with 24 hospital managers and two system user focus groups, and a questionnaire of 736 respondents. Generally, we observed that aspects relating to the wider context of system implementation (macro level), the managerial structure, cultural nuances, and political dynamics within each hospital (meso level), as well as the technology, work activities, and individuals themselves (micro level) acted as facilitators and/or obstacles to the implementation process. The dynamics and complex interactions established between these aspects had repercussions on the process, including the extended time necessary to implement the national program and the somewhat mixed outcomes obtained by hospitals in the national network. Mostly positive, these outcomes were linked to the eight emerging dimensions of practices and work processes; planning, control, and decision making; transparency and accountability; optimization in the use of resources; productivity of professionals; patient information security; safety and quality of care; and improvement in teaching and research. We argued here that to maximize the potential of information technology in healthcare on a large-scale, an integrative and cooperative vision is required, along with a high capacity for change management, considering the different regional, local, and institutional contexts.

“…This causes students to be unfamiliar with direct collaboration and communication activities. Students' study habits during a pandemic differ from in-person learning activities (Beveridge et al, 2021;Weber, 2021;Yim & Gomez, 2021). When learning activities are carried out offline, there needs to be habituation and adaptation again.…”

The Covid-19 pandemic hit almost all parts of the world, including Indonesia. It has been almost two years since the pandemic hit and has had an impact on various sectors including education. During the pandemic, learning was carried out online and felt less effective. Various government efforts have been made for faster recovery, especially in education. One of the government's efforts is through the KDS program (Lecturer-Teacher Partnership in Schools) through Lesson Study activities. This study aims to see the implementation of Lesson Study carried out together with junior high school teachers in partner schools. Through KDS (Lecturer-Teacher Partnership in School) activities by implementing Lesson study, compiling and implementing differentiated learning. The research method used is descriptive qualitative method. The subjects of this research were students of SMP. Lesson Study stages, namely planning (Plan), implementation (Do), reflection (See) which are carried out with lecturers as facilitators and teachers in partner schools as model teachers and observers have been carried out properly in accordance with Lesson Study guidelines and the learning objectives can be achieved planned. The results of research conducted through Lesson Study conducted with teachers in schools by implementing differentiated learning of student learning outcomes are mostly complete
