Sinopsis

Welcome to this volume of IABS, where we are thrilled to present an exciting and thought-provoking collection of articles that cover various social, technical, and educational topics. We begin with an op-ed that features the mentoring work of military veterans who support student veterans on their journey to obtain higher education degrees.

Our next article focuses on the importance of effectively communicating in a multicultural environment. It highlights the significance of respecting communication in cross-cultural exchange, embracing different heritages, and diverse viewpoints to achieve better outcomes that strengthen society.

In this issue, we also explore the challenges that brick-and-mortar churches face in attracting parishioners. We delve into the dichotomy of modern-day religious institutions that aggrandize and lack a connection to their congregation. We question whether four walls are necessary for prayer and worship in today's society or if other ways are better suited.

Furthermore, we discuss how simulation, virtual reality, augmented reality, and technology are advancing opportunities in healthcare. The healthcare industry realized the need to utilize technology during the COVID pandemic to provide a means to practice, test, and perform training in an isolated environment. Simulation and virtual reality provide the opportunity to bring a surgeon from thousands of miles away into an operation and provide input in real time as if they were present in the room.

Lastly, we introduce two articles that focus on training and mentoring in nursing programs. The articles emphasize the need for leadership skills that promote ethical and critical decision-making, initiating and maintaining effective working relationships, using mutually respectful communication and collaboration within inter professional teams, care coordination, delegation, and developing conflict resolution strategies. These articles feature case studies that highlight the application of Academic Transformational Mentoring (ATM) to students and faculty.
