Although learning with Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) has been well studied, little research has investigated what role teachers can play, if empowered with data. Many ITSs provide student performance reports, but they may not be designed to serve teachers’ needs well, which is important for a well-designed dashboard. We investigated what student data is most helpful to teachers and how the...

In North Norway no routine home telemonitoring services for chronic heart failure has yet been established and hence no investigations in the field have been published, although large distances and a sparse population are causes for extra public and private expenditure on travelling for patients when they make a visit to the hospital. In this paper we describe the ePoint.telemed platform for ho...

In this paper, we present some of our ongoing, as well as more recent work designing, implementing, and improving three tools to help university instructors and department leaders make evidence-based improvements to instruction. The first tool, Know Your Students, is a very early prototype that helps instructors tailor their instruction based on characteristics of the students they would not ot...

We develop a context-sensitive dashboard to assist knowledge workers. The term context in our scenario defines explicit categories used to group observed native operations (NOPs) performed, and these NOPs correspond to actions undertaken during work. The dashboard consists of several small applications, widgets, that permit quick access to such entities as files, bookmarks, persons, and notes a...

BACKGROUND The behaviour of doctors and their responses to warnings can inform the effective design of Clinical Decision Support Systems. We used data from a University hospital electronic prescribing and laboratory reporting system with hierarchical warnings and alerts to explore junior doctors' behaviour. The objective of this trial was to establish whether a Junior Doctor Dashboard providing...

This paper presents the motivation, design and evaluation of an interactive dashboard, supporting reflective learning for daily activities. Based on gathering data from a 4-week field trial in which 24 participants used a Fitbit and a GPS tracker, design and interaction recommendations were made by taking the Fitbit dashboard as a starting point. A dashboard was developed according to the visua...

The ‘Maternity Dashboard’ is a clinical performance and governance score card which enables monitoring of various pre-selected parameters at a regular (monthly) interval. Local, regional or national goals or benchmarks are used to compare the current performance against expected standards. This would help not only to identify and promote areas of good clinical practice to safeguard patient care...
