This paper investigates four different mobile robots with respect to their drivingcharacteristics and soil preservation properties in an agricultural environment.Thereby, robots of classical design from agriculture as well as systems from spacerobotics with advanced locomotion concepts are considered to determine theindividual advantages of each rover concept with respect to the application domain.Locomotion experiments were conducted to analyze the general driving behavior,tensile force, and obstacle‐surmounting capability and ground interaction of eachrobot. Various soil conditions typical for the area of application are taken intoaccount, which are varied in terms of moisture and density. The presented workcovers the specification of the conducted experiments, documentation of theimplementation as well as analysis and evaluation of the collected data. In theevaluation, particular attention is paid to the change in driving characteristics underdifferent soil conditions, as well as to the soil stress caused by driving, since soilquality is of critical importance for agricultural applications. The analysis shows thatthe advanced locomotion concepts, as used in space robotics, also have positiveimplications for certain requirements in agricultural applications, such as maneuver-ability in wet conditions and soil conservation. The results show potential for designinnovations in agricultural robotics that can be used, to open up new fields ofapplication for instance in the context of precision farming.
Der Bericht stützt sich auf Informationen, die von Zertifizierungsstellen und Experten in den einzelnen Ländern durch per E-Mail übermittelte Fragebögen und anschließende Telefoninterviews eingeholt wurden.
Es gibt große Unterschiede zwischen den Ländern in Bezug auf die Zertifizierung der (öffentlichen) Lebensmittelausgabe. In Dänemark gibt es ein freiwilliges System mit einer Bronze-, Silber- und Goldmedaille, die für zunehmende Mengen an Bio-Lebensmitteln vergeben werden. In Finnland gibt es keine obligatorische Zertifizierung der öffentlichen Bio-Lebensmittelausgabe, aber ein gut entwickeltes freiwilliges System mit fünf Stufen, die einen steigenden Anteil an Bio-Lebensmitteln vorsehen. Das System umfasst Beratung und ein Zertifikat, das bei der Vermarktung verwendet werden kann. In Italien ist die Zertifizierung nicht verpflichtend, aber es laufen Aktivitäten zur Einführung eines freiwilligen oder verpflichtenden Systems. In Norwegen und Deutschland ist die Zertifizierung der öffentlichen Bio-Lebensmittelausgabe obligatorisch.
Die befragten italienischen Experten begrüßten künftige gemeinsame Standards in diesem Bereich, während die anderen Länder mit besser etablierten Systemen keinen Änderungsbedarf sahen. In Bezug auf die Schulverpflegung wird die Zertifizierung von Bio-Lebensmitteln einen gewissen Mehraufwand bedeuten. Eine Zertifizierung wird jedoch dazu beitragen, das Vertrauen der Menschen in die Verpflegungsdienste zu stärken, die Nutzer zu informieren und so die Bemühungen zur Steigerung des Verbrauchs von Bio-Lebensmitteln zu vermitteln.
Jede Ernährung hat Auswirkungen auf den Gesundheitszustand des Einzelnen, auf die Umwelt und auf soziale Belange. Eine wachsende Zahl von Mahlzeiten wird in der Außer-Haus-Verpflegung eingenommen, in der eine systematische Nachhaltigkeitsbewertung nicht zur gängigen Praxis gehört. Um diese Lücke zu schließen, wurde im Rahmen des NAHGAST-Projekts ein Instrument entwickelt. Nach mehr als einem Jahr des Einsatzes des NAHGAST-Online-Tools soll nun überprüft werden, welche positiven Umwelteinflüsse durch den Einsatz des Instruments realisiert werden können. Aus diesem Grund befasst sich dieser Artikel mit der Frage, ob ein Online-Tool Akteure aus dem Bereich des Außer-Haus-Verzehrs in die Lage versetzen kann, ihre Mahlzeiten im Hinblick auf Aspekte einer nachhaltigen Ernährung zu überarbeiten. Darüber hinaus wird die Frage beantwortet, wie sich konkrete Rezeptüberarbeitungen der beliebtesten Mittagsgerichte auf den materiellen Fußabdruck sowie auf den Carbon Footprint auswirken.
Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass ein Online-Tool individuelle Nachhaltigkeitspfade für Akteure im und ermöglicht eine eigenständige Rezeptüberarbeitung für bereits bestehende Gerichte. Mahlzeiten. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass bereits geringfügige Änderungen in den Rezepten zu Einsparungen von bis zu einem Drittel führen können beim CO2-Fußabdruck sowie beim Materialfußabdruck führen können. Bezogen auf den Außer-Haus-Verzehr Außer-Haus-Verzehr ergibt sich daraus das Potenzial für erhebliche Multiplikationseffekte, die den Weg für die Verbreitung von nachhaltiger Ernährung ebnen.
This report summarizes and discusses the development, main achievements and overall progress of The Interprofessional European eHealth Programme in Higher Education (eHealth4all@EU) project. The project evolved through a strong partnership between members of the consortium, grounding its activities on previous initiatives like TIGER and taking them one step further while looking into the digital health competencies required by graduate students working in health and care and providing teaching approaches and other initiatives to extend further a set of core competencies: Health Information Systems Interoperability, Data Security and Privacy and Data Analytics. Although the project activities underwent during the pandemic period, a condition that forced reorganization and adaptation of the workplan, the main initiatives like the identification of significant areas of interest for digital health competencies and related relevant teaching methods that foster active learning paved the way for the construction of learning content structured around a syllabus aimed at distance learning and faceto- face learning moments developed with the intent for reuse and fostering the development of these set of competences in future Health Professionals. To this purpose, we are convinced that grounding steps have been taken with these eHealth4All@EU activities and initiatives.
IO6 is a report of the evaluation of the online courses and Summer School. The project plan of eHealth4all@EU guides the evaluation. The aim of the evaluation is to present the strengths and developing parts of the project. The main evaluation themes are eHealth, inter-professional education, and problem-based learning. For the funder’s perspective, evaluation focusing themes of digital support, lifelong learning, an active citizen, and the future. Evaluation of the project assign around all these themes and will find out students’ and teachers’ feelings of satisfaction, efficiency, and quality of the learning experience.
In September 2022, the interprofessional European Summer School on the topic “Information in Healthcare – From Data to Knowledge” was held at the University of Porto. This Summer School included the topics Interoperability, Data Protection and Security and Data Analytics and consisted of an online preparation phase and an attendance phase in Porto. The didactic concept involved problem-based learning using a case study. A variety of course materials were developed and used to achieve the learning objectives. There are plans to continue the Summer School concept at participating institutions in the future, starting with a Spring School 2023 in Osnabrück.
Interoperability, Data Protection and Security and Data Analytics are of high relevance for the future of eHealth and interprofessional care. Three online courses were therefore designed and delivered for these topics, all of which followed the same structure. A variety of materials were developed and different tools for knowledge transfer, communication and collaboration were used.
Problem-based learning (PBL) has become established as a successful didactic approach far beyond the field of medicine. Although there is no single concept of PBL, there is agreement on its objectives and implementation. Of central importance is the case that supports autonomous and reflective learning. Even before COVID-19, digital methods were used in traditional PBL. These served to support, for example, the provision of learning materials. As a result of university closures during the COVID-19 pandemic, technical solutions were made available at an unprecedented speed, which made it possible to implement the different requirements of traditional PBL in a digital PBL (DPBL). The present study results based on two scoping reviews demonstrated that PBL can be implemented digitally and that different digital methods, both asynchronous and synchronous, are available for the different steps. They show that DPBL not only leads to comparable student performance, but can also develop further competences, e.g. digital communication. With the findings, a concept for the implementation of DPBL as well as recommendations for the further development of DPBL are available.
The University of Eastern Finland was the responsible partner of IO1: European eHealth Education: Policy and Practice Review. The aim of this intellectual output was to customize and validate the already existing international health informatics recom-mendations. Based on that the aim was also to describe the priorities of core compe-tencies and learning outcomes particularly in the fields addressed by this project. The methods used were a scoping review and focus group interviews. The aim of the scoping review was to explore how education in health informatics (HI) has been taught by evaluating the existing international frameworks and reported ed-ucations in HI. The scoping review was conducted based on the instructions of Joanna Briggs Institute to find English language publications published between 2016 and 2020. All publications found in the bibliographical database MEDLINE via PubMed, Scopus and Web of Sciences were included. The results indicated that education in HI is essential to everyone, and everyone needs skills and knowledge in both technical and non-technical skills in HI. Education in HI should be introduced already in the first year of the education and with time increase the knowledge to a more advanced level. The teaching methods can vary between lectures in class to a more hybrid method. The aim of the online focus group interview was to investigate the needs of HI compe-tencies in health care. To achieve the answers, two main questions were used as a base of the interview. The first question focused on how knowledge and competencies in health informatics could contribute to improving health care. The second question focused on which HI competencies are seen as important to learn and how to achieve them. Online focus group interviews were conducted in each of the three countries. The interviews were done the own languages (German, Portuguese, and Finnish) and later summarized and translated to English. The focus group interviews concluded that there are challenges and possibilities in health informatics. It also highlighted the com-petencies seen as important to have in daily working life. For example, skills in appli-cations in patient care, knowledge in IT-background and IT related management are considered important.
