A “Self Experience” From the Gamified Literary Cards of Shakespeare’s Work: A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Based on the gamified Literary Cards of the Shakespearean work A Midsummer Night’s Dream,we intend to observe,analyze,and verify in what ways the practices of reading and rewriting create effects of meaning,providing the subject reader/player to live an“experience of oneself”,being led to observe oneself,analyzing oneself,deciphering oneself,recognizing oneself as a domain of your own truth and,in this regard,your subjectivity can build your understanding of what sexuality is or highlight the repression of misunderstood desires.The reflection is based on Discourse Analysis of the French“line”,Foucaultian Studies and Freud-Lacanian Psychoanalysis,in which the postulates are about the historical determination of the processes of signification,considering that the senses are constructed in a singular way.It is understood that the gamification,used in Literary Cards,comprises an educational technology aimed not only at the apprehension of a dynamic and interpretive reading practice of oneself,but also as a facilitating resource for teachers to promote formal sexual education from elementary school on.

A qualitative study of nurses’experiences of self-care counseling in migrant patients with heart failure

Objectives:This study aims to enhance researchers’and nurses’understanding of how to best support migrant patients with heart failure in self-care management.Previous research on self-care in heart failure patients has highlighted its importance,particularly among migrant populations.Nurses play an important role in informing and engaging patients with chronic conditions like heart failure to support their active participation in self-care.However,nurses’experiences of providing self-care counseling to migrant populations with heart failure have not been studied.Methods:A qualitative study was conducted.Nurses working with migrant patients with HF(n?13)from different types of facility in Western Sweden were interviewed between October and December 2020.Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and analyzed using inductive thematic analysis.Results:The main theme that emerged from the interviews was the difficulty for nurses“to find balance”in self-care counseling.The nurses during self-care counseling had:“to accept challenges,”“to use creative strategies,”faced“problems related to health literacy,”and“to work according to their(the nurses’)obligations.”It was evident that nurses faced several challenges in counseling migrants in self-care,including language and cultural barriers,time resource constraints,low levels of health literacy,and experienced disharmony between the law and their professional norms.They perceived building caring relationships with their patients to be crucial to fostering health-promoting self-care processes.Conclusions:To increase self-care adherence,nurses must become more sensitive to cultural differences and adapt self-care counseling to patients’health literacy.The findings of this research support and challenge nurses in providing the best counsel to migrant patients with heart failure living in Sweden’s multi-ethnic society.Policymakers in the health care organization should act to facilitate mutual cultural understanding between all involved partners for patient-safe self-care counseling.
