Aim: The study aimed to investigate what characterizes the use of digital technology in bachelor-level practice placements in health programs.
Background: Practice placement for health students in higher education is complex and suffers from a lack of personnel and scant resources. However, the requirements and expectations of the students in managing an evidence-based practice are increasing. This decade, digital transformation in society and higher education can potentially improve students learning in higher education and practice placement due to increased availability for closer communication and collaboration.
Design: A systematic review of reviews was conducted based on Joanna Briggs Institute Framework.
Methods: Bibliographical databases were searched for studies published between 2010-2022. Out of 4891 screened articles, 15 met eligibility criteria and were included in this review.
Results: The analysis revealed three main topics that elucidate what characterises the use of digital technology in placements: Leveraging digital solutions for enhanced practical learning; Empowering student learning and confidence in practice placement; and The value of interactive collaboration.
Conclusions: The findings show that digital technology used in a structured pedagogical framework may support and enhance students learning in practice placement. However, further work needs to be done to keep up with the rapid development of digital technology in practice placement in health work environments.

In this research, a green approach utilizing deep eutectic solvent liquid-liquid microextraction is combined with smartphone digital image colorimetry for the determination of boron in nut samples. A smartphone camera was used to capture the image of the analyte extract located in a custom-made colorimetric box. Using ImageJ software, the images were split into RGB channels, with the green channel identified as the optimum.

The analysis of repetitive hand movements and behavioral transition patterns holds particular significance in detecting atypical behaviors in early child development. Early recognition of these behaviors holds immense promise for timely interventions, which can profoundly impact a child's well-being and future prospects. However, the scarcity of specialized medical professionals and limited facilities has made detecting these behaviors and unique patterns challenging using traditional manual methods.

In the present study, the taxonomic position of Salisediminibacterium haloalkalitolerans was evaluated by determining the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, genome relatedness, and phylogenetic analyses. The 16S rRNA gene sequences extracted from the genomes of Salisediminibacterium haloalkalitolerans 10nlg and Salisediminibacterium halotolerans DSM 26530 showed 100% similarity, supporting their classification as the same species. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between S.

Pathology has benefited from the rapid progress of image-digitizing technology during the last decade. However, the application of digital whole slide images (WSI) in forensic pathology still needs to be improved. WSI validation is crucial to ensure diagnostic performance, at least equivalent to glass slides and light microscopy.

Intellectual property laws were not originally designed to address digital classrooms and shared online learning environments, but these concerns are now relevant to many educational institutions. The recent expansion of technology utilization in health professions education presents educators with the challenges to accurately interpret copyright law and implement best practices under the tenets of fair use. Discerning legal and ethical parameters relevant to copyright law will encourage the implementation of best practices in disseminating information and creating appropriate learning activities in the age of digital education.
