BACKGROUND: Prevention programs can encourage parents to take safety measures to prevent burn injury in children under 5 years of age. The PRECEDE-PROCEED model of Green and Kreuter is a frequently used tool for stepwise development of effective prevention programs. In a previous study the first 2 phases …

Introduction: Several barriers, such as lack of time, knowledge and support, hinder clinicians from providing an individually tailored physical activity (PA) prescription and referral to their patients. As a result, “exercise is medicine” (E = M) is not systematically implemented in clinical care today. …

Building on the metaphor of teachers as “knowing locations,” this contribution explores how teachers impact the socio-material learning environments. We illustrate how they influence teaching/learning making by zooming into two distinct settings: secondary school educational labs (E-labs) and art academy …
