The gap between knowledge and application has long been a widely-discussed topic in Taiwan, and finding solutions thus remains critical in the academic field. With the educational experiment on the upswing, integrating internships into regular college courses has demonstrated itself to be an effective way of closing that gap. With 37 participants taking an internship course called Bilingual Education in a local university in Taiwan, this empirical study covered a 20-week class experiments under the monitoring of action research in 2017. Surveys are administered to elicit the information about the relationships between the implementation of the internship management platform and the students’ reactions. The result shows that 3 out of the 5 paths calculated by the statistic tool are significant (*** 0.001). Students’ self-concept toward the subject, the implementation of the internship management platform, and internship outcome positively affect each other, but students’ English learning emotions, self-concept toward the subject, and internship outcome do not significantly affect each other. It suggests that the internship management platform plays an essential role in promoting students’ self-concept toward the subject and internship outcome. This study provides a new perspective on how college internships can be used as highly credible indicators of student’s learning outcome.

The teaching profession has one of the highest numbers of workforce grappling with heavy workload. Excessive lecturers‟ workload causes adverse effects to both employer and employee. Lecturers are assigned lectures in multiple independent universities and there is no platform to foster inter-university communication regarding the shared lecturers‟ employment state, tenure and lecturing obligations. Kenya‟s Commission for University Education has guidelines set to limit the maximum lecturer workload and yet there is no way in which Commission for University Education monitors and regulates inter-institution lecturers‟ teaching workload. There is the need to employ technology to address this problem. Hence this study examined quantitative factors used in evaluation of a lecturers‟ teaching workload. A critical survey of previous studies and current technologies associated with lecturers‟ workload management helped establish the technological gaps to be filled by a web-based model for monitoring inter-institution lecturer‟s teaching workload in institutions of higher learning. The methodology adopted by this research is the triangulation methodology while a proof of concept methodology was applied to develop and test the model. The research questions were answered through engaging industry experts in a validation exercise. The model‟s properties validated included confidentiality, integrity, availability, user interface and viability. During focus groups, the model‟s confidentiality attribute received the lowest rating of the five evaluated attributes. Participants acknowledged the need to monitor lecturers‟ workload to help in policy formulation and ultimately improve lecturers‟ competency. Management, human and technical challenges are anticipated during the adoption phase of the model. Feedback received from part of the participants also indicated that the model would be an efficient tool in safeguarding lecturers against burnout arising from heavy workload.

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has morbidity due to bile duct injuries about 0.3% to 0.5% [1]. The main technique used for gallbladder dissection is infundibulum technique. Critical view of safety method is identification of the cystic duct and cystic artery during laparoscopic cholecystectomy and it is used to minimize risk of bile duct injury.
