2010 Project Consultant, “MEET THE BEATIES: A MULTIMEDIA ENTERTAINMENT-

EDUCATION SERIES AND ONLINE COMMUNITY TO PROMOTE TREATMENT

ADHERENCE AMONG DIABETIC CHILDREN AND TEENS,” A Concept Paper by

Renee Hobbs and David Cooper Moore, Temple University School of Communications

& Theater. Overview: We seek grant funding to support phase 1 research associated with the

development of an online multimedia education program designed to help type 1 and type 2 diabetic children ages 9 to 14 better manage their disease. Working in an interdisciplinary context with experts in communication, pediatric nursing, public health and medicine, we will develop a theoretical model that specifies why online multimedia education programs may improve treatment adherence, conduct formative research to understand the specific emotional and social needs of children and young teens who are diagnosed with diabetes, and develop collaborative relationships with leading researchers in pediatric psychology who specialize in research on adherence and its relationship to psychosocial dimensions of treatment for diabetic youth. Then, working with a team of musicians, animators and online software developers, we will create an online multimedia program consisting of short animated music programs embedded in an online community. Finally, we will conduct a small controlled experiment to measure the impact of participating in the program on children’s adherence to treatment, self-concept, quality of family communication and other variables associated with socioemotional control in children and teens. In phase 2, extramural funding will enable us to develop the complete multimedia project.

2009, Spring Semester: Dickey, S.B., Finestone, A.J. & Mahoney, K.R. (Grant proposal

From Dr. Dominique Kliger:

Distance Learning Program new

Student Webinar Series initiative.

I really appreciate reviewing the sessions created by you and found the topics addressed to be very

interesting.

I'm sorry that it took us a while to add your videos to our web site, but we wanted to make sure we had

transcripts for all videos (Genomics video will have transcripts uploaded by next week).

I'm listing below the URL created for the webinars and would like to invite you to also share this URL with

your students or add it to your web sites too.

http://www.temple.edu/distanceandsummer/studentseminarseries.html

We aim to continue to upload new webinar sessions to this site on a monthly basis, so if you have new ideas

and would like to contribute to this project again, please do not hesitate to contact me or Carly about it.

Thank you again :-) !

was originally conceived as an Independent Study in partial fulfillment of the student’s MSN.

She was awarded funding for the project from the Nurse Practitioner Healthcare

Foundation/Sanofi Pasteur “Health Through Immunization” Award in 2010, and extended for

completion after the student completed her MSN and passed her CRNP certifying exam. This

award was issued on the basis of gathering information and presenting it in the form of a


poster. Laurie continued to request that I serve as her advisor, even after she had graduated.

Project was not completed due to lack of time for recipient to carry out the data collection and

analysis, so she never realized her funding.

Consultant to Master’s Theses & Projects; Master Level Independent Studies

Spring, 2010 Project Advisor for Anthony George Giannoumis, MPH student, for

CHPSW Research Symposium, entitled, “Providing a Global Perspective to Nursing Students.”

This project was initiated during Summer Session 1, 2009, when Mr. Giannoumis was a student

in N-5555, “Health Policy for Diverse Communities.”

The purpose of this project is to persuade the two accrediting bodies for nursing

education in the United States to incorporate curricular innovations that include content

and process educational standards for nursing care of international persons. The current

nursing education standards provided by the National League for Nursing Accreditation


Commission (NLNAC) and the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE)

have limited or no recommendations for curricular provisions related to international

nursing. A review of evidenced based research on institutions providing such coursework

in nursing education shows positive benefits to practice, professional scope, and future

policy involvement. Such work indicates that the NLNAC and CCNE include specific

provisions requiring schools of nursing to demonstrate that their curricula meet standards

of inclusion of international nursing components for diverse populations. By

implementing such standards, schools of nursing may choose to leverage the existing

infrastructure, utilize opportunities for interdepartmental collaboration, or incorporate

additional recommended coursework and demonstration of proficiencies as requirements

for meeting terminal curricular objectives. Please view a presentation of this report at

http://www.vimeo.com/6927280.

Spring, 2010-2012 Laurie Tillery-Russell, (MSN Program) was awarded the 2010-2012

Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation/Sanofi-Pasteur "Health Through Immunization"

award. This award was issued on the basis of gathering information and presenting it in the

form of a poster. This project will need to be completed within 2 yrs. The targeted audience

will be health care professionals. She will have the opportunity to present the poster

nationally with the possibility of it becoming publishing, and has asked me to be her faculty

advisor for this project.
