Theoretical and empirical underpinning of the concept of guidance in the process of Computer-Supported Inquiry-based Learning in secondary STEM-education Ghent University
This project focuses on the theoretical and empirical underpinning of the concept of guidance in the process of Computer-Supported Inquiry-based Learning (CoSIL) in secondary STEM-education. Specifically, the focus is on the frequency, duration and modality in which multiple types of guidance can work synergistically within a CoSIL-environment in order to support domain-specific knowledge, scientific inquiry skills and motivation for STEM.
Synergistic scaffolding in technology-enhanced STEM learning. How can technology help to balance between autonomy and guidance during scientific inquiry? Ghent University
This project focuses on how Computer-Supported Collaborative Inquiry should be brought into the educational practice of Science, Technology, Mathematics and Engineering (STEM) and how support should be designed to serve a diversity of students regarding the obtainment of deep knowledge construction, problem solving skills and motivation in science. Literature stresses that supporting multiple students in a technology-enhanced classroom ...
Developing and testing the user experience of an interactive health technology-based adherence intervention in solid organ transplantation: know your end-users KU Leuven
Many adult transplant (Tx) patients struggle to adhere to their complex medication regimen and lead a healthy lifestyle, necessitating supportive interventions in order to prevent post-Tx co-morbidities and premature mortality. Based on our systematic review (chapter 2), however, we learned that only 14 experimental or quasi-experimental interventions were published (seven focusing on physical activity, three on diet, two on sun protection, ...
Academic advising analytics dashboards: Towards artificial intelligence for student success KU Leuven
Academic advising is a growing professional practice with a developing scholarly field within Higher Education. Academic advising refers to “the intentional interactions between representatives from institutions of higher education (advisors) and students (advisees), and the ways by which advisors provide guidance and support for students on issues relating to the student's personal growth, academic studies, career, and ...
