Summary: The rise of students as prosumers of educational content is a new development that has received little research attention, especially in the context of digital content generation for online and hybrid education. This article examines patterns of behavior and perceptions associated with different groups of students in their roles as producers and/or users in active learning in hybrid university education systems. The findings indicate higher levels of involvement and appreciation among students who produce content compared to those who only consume it, but their environment and personal attitudes may influence their interest and appreciation for these creative and demanding activities.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the effects of viewing nature-related soothing images, listening to soothing sounds, and a combination of both on mood. The findings showed that all interventions led to a decrease in negative affect and depressive mood, as well as an increase in serenity affect. Exploratory analysis revealed that individuals with higher levels of depressive and anxiety symptoms at baseline experienced greater improvement in mood. These findings suggest that images and sounds depicting nature can potentially be effective tools for improving mood and well-being.

Summary: This study examines the intricate relationship between care experience, mental health, and exclusion from school, as well as how young people negotiate these experiences and identities. Through a secondary analysis of interviews with 19 care-experienced young people in Scotland, informed by symbolic interactionist theory, the study challenges assumptions of vulnerability and explores the contexts and relationships that facilitate or disrupt pathways to exclusion. The findings suggest that these young people are actively seeking alternative identities beyond the roles assigned to them.
