This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This critical interpretivist case study explored students' experiences of an HIV/AIDS service learning module run in the School of Psychology at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. The study was originally initiated in response to a request from CHESP to evaluate this module. It has since become an independent study with the purpose of exploring the kind of learning (HIV specific) that students gained from the module. A number of studies have attempted to explore students' experiences of service learning through students' evaluations, or have focused on the effects of the community intervention on the community. These are often of a quantitative nature and do not engage with students' experiences on a deeper level. They also tend to focus on measuring students' knowledge and understandings of HIV/AIDS. The objective of this study was to qualitatively explore whether students had experienced a genuine engagement in the service learning module, focusing on their level of reflection on their identities, their understandings of self and other, and their understandings of their own location within the HIV/AIDS epidemic.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current research study was a qualitative investigation to explore and describe how students, registered for the Education 364 module, experienced the HIV/AIDS teacher education pilot programme (TEPP), implemented at the University of Pretoria. The availability of in-depth interview transcriptions, as raw data, permitted analysis of existing data from a different perspective. Transcriptions of a focus group interview and two individual interviews with Afrikaans students were purposefully selected and inductively analysed. Two main themes emerged following the thematic analysis of interview transcriptions. Findings indicate that the content of the HIV/AIDS TEPP provided students with a solid HIV/AIDS-related theoretical basis. Findings furthermore suggest that the HIV/AIDS TEPP could be adapted for different levels of knowledge and teaching phases. Appropriate and sufficient resource materials, in accordance with the explicit needs of each teaching phase, could be developed. Practical examples and clear guidelines may be incorporated into HIV/AIDS programmes to equip teachers to deal with difficult situations. In addition, sufficient time allocation to and early implementation of HIV/AIDS programmes seem necessary. The value of a range of teaching and learning methodologies and the role of HIV/AIDS programme presenters were emphasised. Since existing teacher training may not adequately prepare teachers to address HIV/AIDS challenges, the need for continuous development, lifelong learning as well as support for teachers were also highlighted. Finally, findings indicate that engagement in affective and identity-construction domains may reduce HIV/AIDS fatigue and encourage students to take on active roles to address HIV/AIDS-related challenges.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary aim of this study was to explore the manner in which contextual factors influence the implementation of HIV & AIDS programmes in schools, by investigating the lived-experiences of teachers who were responsible for the implementation of such programmes. The findings of this study mainly add to the vast body of knowledge on the implementation of the school's curriculum. In addition to this, the study highlights the manner in which educational policy can become a workable instrument by setting parameters for the development of an HIV & AIDS school policy, and for effective implementation of an HIV & AIDS programmes in schools. Furthermore, this study will contribute to addressing the barriers that negatively influence HIV & AIDS programme delivery in schools. Another outcome of this study could be the possible improvement of the training of teachers and curriculum developers. The conceptual framework of the study dealt with the following: a description of the HIV & AIDS pandemic (as a background), the impact of the pandemic in the South African context, expectations and responsibilities of schools and teachers with regard to the implementation of HIV & AIDS programmes, and theories that underpin behaviour change, and form the basis of HIV & AIDS prevention programmes. The important role of the school as a societal agent, and its important role in the prevention of HIV & AIDS infection, emerged clearly in this study. The study was conducted according to a qualitative research approach, guided by the interpretivist and constructivist epistemologies. An instrumental case study design was utilised, during which semi-structured interviews, as the main data collection strategy, were conducted with purposively selected participants from three schools (cases). The individual semi-structured interviews were supplemented with observations, a reflective journal and visual data collection and documentation strategies. Four prominent themes emerged subsequent to an inductive data analysis that was done, namely: teachers' perceptions and experiences of the HIV & AIDS programme, managerial factors in the school, societal and community influences, and HIV & AIDS as a topic in the school subject Life Orientation. These identified and structured themes broadly categorised the empirical findings that were related to the primary and secondary questions of this study. Although the implementation of HIV & AIDS programmes in schools was made compulsory, the study indicated that schools were not adhering to this requirement, due to factors such as a lack of sound management practices in schools, insufficient training of teachers and school managers, uninvolved stakeholders, and the lived-experiences of teachers with regard to the HIV & AIDS programme. Based on the findings of this study, recommendations were made with regard to the role that the Department of Education, school management, teachers and the community can fulfil, in order to improve the implementation of HIV & AIDS programmes in schools. This study also provides a suggested framework for developing and implementing an HIV & AIDS policy for schools, in an effort to prevent HIV & AIDS infection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research which this thesis reports and represents sought to explore, 'The experiences of students Living With or Affected by HIV/AIDS in Trinidad and Tobago". The focus is on the perceptions and experiences of thirteen primary and secondary school students. some of whom were in residential care whilst the others lived with relatives. These perceptions and experiences are also considered in the context of the views of care givers and key informants involved in HIVi AIDS education in Trinidad and Tobago. The primary questions the research addressed were: What had happened to the young people up to the time of the research'? What were their stories with relation to the ways in which HIV/AIDS had impacted their lives? How had they experienced schools and schooling as HIV/AIDS affected students? What were their experiences with regard to the health sector? and, What were their hopes and dreams for the future? The research took a qualitative. auto/biographical approach using interviews and participant observation as the key methods of data collection and narrative/storying and grounded theory as the form of representation and analysis. My own voice both as researcher and as an education professional concerned with young people is acknowledged throughout. My aim has been to present lived experiences - to give voice - and to explore how HIV/AIDS impacted on different aspects of the students' lives, on their health, education. human rights, personal social development, family dynamics and support systems. XI This thesis is an attempt to counter the silence which surrounds students living with or affected by HIV:AIDS as it explores what can be learnt from the perspectives of those students and their care-givers about the cultural significance of the disease, its capacity to alter how we know ourselves and what we can do in the midst of epidemic. Topics addressed within the thesis include: HIV/AIDS in the Caribbean generally and in Trinidad and Tobago specifically; the Medical Disease - transmission. treatment, responses, advocacy; Human Rights: the Social Disease; Local responses of Ministries of Education and Health, The Churches and The NACC; Regional responses - C ARICOM, CAREC, PANCAP; and global response through UNESCO's Commonwealth Chair.

Book excerpt: Gender issues are central to the causes and impact of the ongoing AIDS epidemic. The editors bring together cutting edge contemporary scholarship on gender and AIDS in one volume. They address questions related to gender and sexuality, how women and men live the epidemic differently and how such differences lead to different outcomes. The volume joins research on Africa, Asia and Latin America and illustrates how the epidemic has different gendered characteristics, causes and consequences in different regions. Collectively, the chapters demonstrate the fundamental ways that gender influences the spread of the disease, its impact and the success of prevention efforts. This scholarly, interdisciplinary volume provides a comprehensive introduction to the themes and issues of gender, AIDS and global public health and informs students, policy makers and practitioners of the complexity of the gendered nature of AIDS.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective strategies for identifying people living with HIV and helping them receive ongoing medical care. The availability of combination antiretroviral therapy has changed the lives of millions of people living with HIV (PLWH), for whom a once fatal infection can now be a manageable chronic disease. Yet only 30 percent of PLWH in the United States are virally suppressed, and significant gaps in access to care persist. While programs to boost linkage to and retention in HIV care are critical to improving the health of PLWH, efforts to evaluate these programs are surprisingly scarce. Using cutting-edge implementation science, this book tackles the issue of how to better link and retain PLWH in ongoing primary medical care. A multipart case study examines successful strategies and provides detailed profiles of the organizations involved and their processes for reaching, linking, and retaining PLWH. Barriers to and facilitators of implementation are explored qualitatively, network analysis is used to assess changes in interagency collaboration among organizations serving PLWH, and evidence-based recommendations are offered for improving linkage to HIV care in the U.S.
