Learning analytics, as a means to visualize learning, has been repeatedly suggested to enhance learners’ and teachers’ self-reflection in online learning processes. Departing from this notion, we propose a combination of this visual approach to learning analytics with the concept of social presence, thereby acknowledging social aspects of online learning processes that are often overlooked. Mor...

Introduction / objectives Viral culture results (VCT) correlates well with the intensity of clinical services but they are not available real time. Rapid viral tests results (RVT) are available on the same day and can be used for real time predictions. This study reports the use of RVT for such prediction for a period of 145 weeks in Hong Kong (HK). Two acute hospitals successfully use them to ...
