Purpose: The aims of this study were to investigate how a variety of research methods is commonly employed to study technology and practitioner cognition. User-interface issues with infusion pumps were selected as a case because of its relevance to patient safety. Methods: Starting from a Cognitive …

In the medical community, X-rays are an important tool in imaging the human body. In principle X-ray images are 2 dimensional images. By measuring such X-ray images at multiple angles, one can construct the 3 dimensional inner structure of the sample. This 3 dimensional structure is created by applying …

The strengths of design-based research (DBR from now on) is that it teststheories in the real word of practice and in doing so generates newknowledge and artifacts useful to both the scientist and the practitioner.However, DBR’s strength might also be considered its weakness; becausethe research takes …

This study investigates what pupils aged 10-12 can learn from working with robots, assuming that understanding robotics is a sign of technological literacy. We conducted cognitive and conceptual analysis to develop a frame of reference for determining pupils' understanding of robotics. Four perspectives …

Laser Doppler perfusion imaging (LDPI) has been proven to be a useful tool in predicting the burn wound outcome in an early stage. A major disadvantage of scanning beam LDPI devices is their slow scanning speed, leading to patient discomfort and imaging artifacts. We have developed the Twente Optical …

The web is widely used by museums as a low-barrier platform to inform people on activities in the museum and publish their collections online. It is not uncommon that this publishing consists of an simple web interface connected to a database that holds records with limited information about the artifacts; …
