Background: To facilitate adherence to adaptive pain management behaviors after interdisciplinary multimodal pain treatment, we developed a mobile health app (AGRIPPA app) that contains two behavior regulation strategies. Objective: The aims of this project are (1) to test the effectiveness of the AGRIPPA …

Er iets paradoxaals aan de hand met het leren van leraren. De complexiteit van het beroep neemt toe en docenten opereren onder grote onder druk. Die complexiteit vraagt om levenslang lerende leraren en staat tegelijkertijd dat leren in de weg. Terwijl er steeds meer oog is voor de sleutelrol die de leraar …

Diversification of flood risk management strategies (FRMS) in response to climate change relies on the adaptive capacities of institutions. Although adaptive capacities enable flexibility and adjustment, more empirical research is needed to better grasp the role of adaptive capacities to accommodate …

Een korte Nederlandse uitleg over het concept 'Whole Systems Approach' op basis van het promotie onderzoek van Anu Manickam van het Lectoraat Duurzaam Coöperatief Ondernemen

Abstract: Sedentary behaviour in children, four years of age and older, has increased over the last decades. These children become physically less skilled, which demotivates them for regular sports activities. They become susceptible to health risks such as obesity and have a heightened chance to develop …

Formative assessment can be understood as assessment for learning rather than of learning. Research has demonstrated that formative assessment/feedback is strongly and causally related to students’ achievement in higher education. At Avans University of Applied Sciences, the first-year course Mechanics …

Abstract The automotive market shows rapid, sometimes disruptive innovations. Curriculum innovation in the professional higher education, such as the HAN Automotive Institute, could be an adequate response to changing labour market requirements. Most research done on the cooperation between professional …

Exhaust emissions from motorized vehicles are not only harmful to the environment but also on human health. At the same time, motorists are not necessarily aware of the adverse health effects resulting from their emissions. In this work, we use the health aspect as a primary motivation factor in the …

From single-cell organisms to complex neural networks, all evolved to provide control solutions to generate context- and goal-specific actions. Neural circuits performing sensorimotor computation to drive navigation employ inhibitory control as a gating mechanism as they hierarchically transform (multi)sensory …

Digital technologies permeate and transform organisational practices. As a society, we need means to explore the uncharted terrain that lies ahead and the desirability and consequences of possible courses of action to move forward. We investigate a design approach, called ‘future probing’, to envision …
