The JWST captures the imagination of the world, inspiring all both young and old. From technological challenges and its ‘origami mirror’ to its powerful cameras looking deeper into the universe than ever before, JWST is fascinating on all levels. With the MIRI-instrument being built in the Netherlands, …

Research into automatic text simplification aims to promote access to information for all members of society. To facilitate generalizability, simplification research often abstracts away from specific use cases, and targets a prototypical reader and an underspecified content creator. In this paper, we …

Building on the Minds-On project, this study developed the online module “Celestial Bodies” to enhance hands-on and minds-on learning, providing students with individualised feedback prompts to monitor and identify weaknesses in their understanding. The lesson centred on classifying 14 celestial bodies …

This study examines the effect of seat assignment strategies on the transfer time of connecting passengers at a hub airport. Passenger seat allocation significantly influences disembarkation times, which can increase the risk of missed connections, particularly in tight transfer situations. We propose …

Learning by creating qualitative representations is a valuable approach to learning. However, modelling is challenging for students, especially in secondary education. Support is needed to make this approach effective. To address this issue, we explore automated support provided to students while they …

In this paper, we focus on how the qualitative vocabulary of Dynalearn, which is used for describing dynamic systems, corresponds to the mathematical equations used in quantitative modeling. Then, we demonstrate the translation of a qualitative model into a quantitative model, using the example of an …

System-shifting design has been presented as a research stream in systemic design in which different ways of impacting sociotechnical systems can be discussed and developed. One important aspect of this field is to explore collaboration and co-design with diverse system stakeholders in and across projects …
