ACA-bot

ACA-bot is an engaging chatbot designed for Automated Conversational Assessment (ACA). Drawing inspiration from traditional oral exams, this text-based conversational agent transforms assessment into a dynamic learning experience. It supports both formative and summative evaluation by offering students personalised feedback and guidance at every step of their learning journey. The first ACA-bot prototype focuses on assessing students’ understanding of basic statistical concepts, but its flexible design allows for easy adaptation to a wide range of subjects and learning contexts. Through interactive dialogue, students can practise explaining ideas clearly under exam-like conditions, apply their knowledge to new and challenging questions, and refine their reasoning as they respond to follow-up prompts. They gain valuable insights into their own understanding, identify areas for improvement, and gradually build confidence for both oral and written assessments. For educators, ACA-bot offers a powerful way to scale oral examinations and enhance formative assessment without increasing workload. It automates parts of the assessment process, provides structured and actionable insights into student performance, and opens the door to more personal, interactive feedback at scale. By combining the strengths of conversational AI and educational assessment, ACA-bot turns evaluation into a collaborative, insightful process. It empowers students to think aloud, reason more effectively, and grow, while giving educators a smarter, more innovative way to understand and support learning. ACA-bot is een slimme en inspirerende chatbot die onderwijs en Artificial Intelligence samenbrengt. Geïnspireerd door het klassieke mondelinge examen tilt deze tekstgebaseerde gespreksagent Automated Conversational Assessment naar een nieuw niveau. Studenten krijgen via natuurlijke gesprekken directe, persoonlijke feedback en begeleiding, waardoor leren en toetsen samenvloeien in één boeiende ervaring. Het prototype van ACA-bot is ontwikkeld om kennis over statistiek te beoordelen, maar dankzij het flexibele ontwerp kan het systeem eenvoudig worden aangepast aan andere vakgebieden en toepassingen. Tijdens interactieve dialogen leren studenten helder uitleg geven, hun kennis toepassen op nieuwe vragen en hun redenering aanscherpen. Ze ontdekken waar hun begrip nog verdiept kan worden en groeien zichtbaar in zelfvertrouwen — waardevolle voorbereiding op zowel mondelinge als schriftelijke examens. Ook voor docenten biedt ACA-bot een slimme oplossing. Het maakt mondelinge toetsing schaalbaar, ondersteunt formatieve beoordeling via gesprek, en vermindert de werkdruk door delen van het beoordelingsproces te automatiseren. Bovendien geeft het gestructureerde inzichten in de voortgang en denkwijze van studenten, waardoor elke dialoog bijdraagt aan beter onderwijs. ACA-bot laat zien hoe Automated Conversational Assessment het leren persoonlijker, interactiever en effectiever maakt. Studenten denken hardop, verkennen hun eigen begrip, en verbeteren met vertrouwen — terwijl docenten op een innovatieve, datagedreven manier inzicht krijgen in hoe kennis werkelijk wordt begrepen.

Systems Thinking Pressure Cooker

What – This pressure cooker is an introduction to systems thinking. This pressure cooker can be used to quickly familiarize a group of people with what the characteristics of a system are and have them experience various examples of using systems thinking to explore a topic or question. For whom – The format can be used (and adjusted) for a team of teachers that are not yet familiar with systems thinking, as well as a group of students (all levels; any group size). Why – Guided training in integration of systems thinking in a research project. How long – Approximately 2-2,5 hours in class and a 10 minutes pre-class video.

An analysis of the current developments and scenarios for the transition to a fossil-free energy society this century

This century, greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrogen oxides must be significantly reduced. Greenhouse gases absorb and emit infrared radiation that contributes to global warming, which can lead to irreversible negative consequences for humans and the environment. Greenhouse gases are caused by the burning of fossil fuels such as crude oil, coal, and natural gas, but livestock farming and agriculture are also to blame. In addition, deforestation contributes to more greenhouse gases. Of the natural greenhouse gases, water vapor is the main cause of the greenhouse effect, accounting for 90%. The remaining 10% is caused from high to low by carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen oxides, chlorofluorocarbons, and ozone. In addition, there are industrial greenhouse gases such as fluorinated hydrocarbons, sulphur hexafluoride, and nitrogen trifluoride that contribute to the greenhouse effect too. Greenhouse gases are a major cause of climate change, with far-reaching consequences for the welfare of humans and animals. In some regions, extreme weather events like rainfall are more common, while others are associated with more extreme heat waves and droughts. Sea level rise caused by melting ice and an increase in forest fires are undesirable effects of climate change. Countries in low-lying areas fear that sea level rise will force their populations to move to the higher-lying areas. Climate change is affecting the entire world. An estimated 30-40% o f the carbon dioxide released by the combustion of fossil fuels dissolves into the surface water, resulting in an increased concentration of hydrogen ions. This causes the seawater to become more acidic, resulting in a decreasing of carbonate ions. Carbonate ions are an important building block for forming and maintaining calcium carbonate structures of organisms such as oysters, mussels, sea urchins, shallow water corals, deep sea corals, and calcareous plankton.

Week 3: Creating and Selecting Options

Around this video, a lesson has been built with specific learning objectives, activities, and supporting materials for students. The next steps in the case-solving cycle are being explained: generating and selecting solutions. Students explore ideation techniques like brainwriting and mind mapping to develop creative, practical ideas. Ground rules help keep the process focused, collaborative, and open. To evaluate ideas, the SFA framework (Suitability, Feasibility, Acceptability) is used to shortlist the most promising options. A real-world example shows how these tools lead to well-founded decisions. Finally, students learn to apply a decision-making matrix to compare options using relevant criteria. This lesson helps students move from insights to action by developing structured, team-driven solutions.

Week 2: Analysing a Case

Around an inspiring video, a lesson has been built with specific learning objectives, activities, and supporting materials for students. Essential case-solving techniques to help students tackle complex real-world problems, are being introduced and trained. The instructors explain that effective analysis goes beyond listing facts—it’s about uncovering insights that address the “so what” question. Key methods covered include critical thinking, analytical frameworks (like VRIO, Porter’s 5 Forces, and GAP analysis), and the 5 WHY technique for identifying root causes. Using a concrete case example, they show how a deeper issue—ineffective communication—was the true cause of low user engagement. By the end of this lesson, students understand how to structure their analysis, avoid common mistakes, and use insights to drive solution development.

Week 4: Creating an Implementation Plan

Around an engaging video, a lesson has been built with specific learning objectives, activities, and supporting materials for students. The focus is on a key phase in the case-solving cycle: turning strategy into action through effective implementation. The instructors introduce a six-step framework that guides students in building a clear, realistic plan to bring strategic solutions to life. From setting SMART goals and allocating resources (using the MMM framework) to creating timelines, assigning responsibilities, and assessing risks, this lesson shows how to structure implementation at different levels. Using a case example, students see how thoughtful planning ensures feasibility and alignment across business functions. By the end of the lesson, students are equipped to translate ideas into impact with a well-structured roadmap.
