Het kritisch denken van studenten bevorderen is een belangrijke doelstelling van het hoger onderwijs. Docenten spelen een cruciale rol in het realiseren hiervan. Desondanks is er weinig bekend over hoe zij hierin ondersteund kunnen worden. Hoofddoel van het promotieonderzoek van Eva Janssen was om een …

It is essential that higher education students are trained to become critically-thinking professionals. Critical thinking (CT) is crucial for succeeding in future careers and, moreover, is an important life skill (Davies, 2013; Facione, 1990; Halpern, 2014; Van Gelder, 2005). More specifically, students …

A challenge in digital content marketing is to create meaningful messages on meaningful moments. To do so, brands frequently align social media messages with topical moments, also known as Real-time Marketing (RTM). While RTM aims to make meaningful connections, the creative development is subject to …

Commonly used game and decision theoretic models fail to explain the empirics of deterrence. This has unjustly led many theorists to criticize the (rationality and other) assumptions underpinning of such models. No serious game theorist will contend that his theoretic model will possibly take account …

This paper describes a calibration method for inertial and magnetic sensors using a batched optimization procedure. Well estab- lished sensor, motion and constraint models are applied which include sensor gains, biases, misalignments and inter-triad misalignments. For the magnetometer, hard and soft …

Teachers play a crucial role in attaining a major objective of higher education: fostering students’ critical thinking (CT). Yet, little is known about how to foster teachers’ own CT-skills and attitudes towards teaching CT. In a quasi-experimental study (N = 54), we investigated whether a three-session …

Critical thinking is considered to be an important competence for students and graduates of higher education. Yet, it is largely unclear which teaching methods are most effective in supporting the acquisition of critical thinking skills, especially regarding one important aspect of critical thinking: …

Traditional IMU based PDR systems suffer from rapidly growing drift effects due to the inherent bias of the inertial sensor. Many existing solutions to mitigate this problem use aiding sensors or information as heuristics or map data. We propose a new optimization framework to solve the PDR estimation problem …

This online STS muhabbet, friendly but critically engaging conversation that took place between Yetiskin and Lovink will walk you through the stages of identifying the problems, threats, and possibilities that media technologies have brought to the table of not only users but also social science researchers …

Doelstelling: Er is wereldwijd een toename van de prevalentie en progressie van myopie. Naarmate de myopie toeneemt, wordt het risico op slechtziendheid veroorzakende aandoeningen groter. In dit literatuuronderzoek wordt gekeken naar het effect van multifocale zachte contactlenzen op de progressie van …
