Teachers are expected to tailor their instruction to accommodate differences between students, in order to give all learners the opportunity to develop to their full potential. This is also called differentiated instruction (DI), and it requires teachers to continually monitor students’ progress towards …

BACKGROUND: Advanced interventions to enhance the mental health literacy (MHL) of educational professionals are now available, though their effectiveness varies, likely due to contextual differences. To adapt these interventions for use in other countries, a systematic and tailored approach is required …

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector, shifting to rail transport is crucial. This transition will increase the demand on existing rail infrastructure, necessitating large-scale monitoring to maintain its resilience. Point cloud data are an ideal candidate for this purpose, as …

Het Micro Compact Natural Intelligence Configurator (mCONIC) project vertegenwoordigt een gede tailleerd technisch onderzoek naar de haalbaarheid van het implementeren van natuurlijke taalverwerkingsmogelijkheden op microcontrollers met beperkte rekenkracht. Dit onderzoek maakte gebruik van een gemengde …

Objective: In the context of a programme to improve people-centered care, launched by the Tanzanian Ministry of Health, an international project (HEALCARe) was initiated to enhance the health literacy (HL) and respectful compassionate care (RCC) competencies of Bachelor’s nursing and midwifery students. …

Manual crack inspection is labor-intensive and impractical at scale, prompting a shift toward AI-based segmentation methods. We present a novel crack segmentation model that leverages the Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM 2) through transfer learning to detect cracks on masonry surfaces. Unlike prior approaches …

Introduction: Nursing education traditionally teaches skill acquisition in isolated practice drills and guided by step-by-step protocols. While these approaches may seem to provide a solid foundation, they do not adequately bridge the gap between a controlled learning environment and the reality of nursing …

There is a wide range of literature suggesting that implicit learning is more effective than explicit learning when acquiring motor skills. However, the acquisition of nursing skills in educational settings continues to rely heavily on detailed protocols and explicit instructions. This study aimed to …

Purpose Engineering knowledge continuity is crucial for the life cycle management of long-lived and complex assets, such as nuclear plants, locks and storm surge barriers. At the storm surge barriers in the Netherlands, engineering knowledge continuity is not yet fully assured, despite long-standing …

Accurate localization in autonomous robots enables effective decision-making within their operating environment. Various methods have been developed to address this challenge, encompassing traditional techniques, fiducial marker utilization, and machine learning approaches. This work proposes a deep-learning …
