Handbuch für Lehrende von Lehrenden N2 - Das vorliegende Handbuch ist im Rahmen des EU-Projektes "Energyducation" (Förderkennzeichen KA2 2018-1-ES01-KA202-050327) entstanden und von Berufspädagogen, überwiegend praktizierenden Berufsschullehrerinnen und -lehrern, aus Deutschland (Institut für Berufliche Lehrerbildung an der FH Münster), den Niederlanden (Alfa-college in Groningen), Norwegen (NTI-MMM AS in Oslo) und Spanien (CIFP USURBIL LHII in Usurbil) verfasst worden. Vorlage war eine englische Fassung die umfangreich überarbeitet und im Hinblick auf die im deutschen Sprachraum vorherrschenden Begrifflichkeiten und Konzepte hin geschärft wurde. Es dokumentiert die mit dem projektbasierten Lernen gesammelten Erfahrungen aus der Sicht von Praktikern. Die Besonderheit ist, dass die Erfahrungen untereinander abgeglichen wurden und damit länderübergreifende Erkenntnisse zusammengeführt wurden. Das vorliegende Handbuch versteht sich dabei nicht als wissenschaftliches Werk, greift aber Erkenntnisse aus der Lehreraus- und -fortbildung auf und stellt diese vor dem Hintergrund der gesammelten Erfahrungen dar.

Dies gilt sowohl für den Bereich der Forschung und Entwicklung, als auch für die Industrie und Wirtschaft. So werden beispielsweise Modelle zur Planung und Optimierung von Energiesystemen umgesetzt. Eine Open Source Veröffentlichung ist in diesem Forschungsfeld besonders wichtig, um die Überprüfbarkeit von Modellannahmen sowie der Vergleichbarkeit verschiedener Modellansätze zu garantieren. Einer Open-Source Veröffentlichung stehen jedoch häufig die Hürden von hohem Fristendruck, fehlender Finanzierung und fehlendem Detailwissen der Publizierenden entgegen. Deshalb bleiben diese Softwareprodukte meist im Entwurfsstadium und sind daher schwierig wieder zu verwenden. Mithilfe des neu erarbeiteten Schritt-für-Schritt Leitfadens zur standardisierten Implementierung einer Open Source Software, wird die Hürde und der zeitliche Aufwand zur Standardisierung von Open Source Repositories weitestgehend reduziert. Hierbei wird für jedem Bestandteil des zu standardisierenden Repositorys eine umfassende Erklärung der üblichen Standards sowie eine Empfehlung für unterstützende Softwarelösungen ausgesprochen. Der Leitfaden orientiert sich an den aus der ISO 12207 resultierenden Phasen des Softwarelebenszyklus und ermöglicht einen Einstieg zu jedem Entwicklungsstand der Software. Seine grafische Aufbereitung in Form eines Prozessablaufplans erleichtert die Einschätzung des individuellen Status der Standardisierung eines vorliegenden Open Source Projektes. Als Treiber der Standardisierung eines Open Source Projektes sind insbesondere die bessere Lesbarkeit, Wartbarkeit und Testbarkeit der standardisierten Open Source Software wichtig. Bei der Anwendung auf das bereits bestehende Open Source Projekt des Spreadsheet Energy System Model Genarators fiel auf, dass ein verspäteter Einstieg in ein systematisches Vorgehen (wie er mit dem Leitfaden dieser Arbeit gegeben wird) zu erheblichen Mehraufwand bei der Standardisierung führen kann. Dennoch konnten im Zuge der Umsetzung des erarbeiteten Leitfadens weitreichende Verbesserungen des Projektes vor dem Hintergrund der Standardisierung erreicht werden (z. B. Versionierung & Wartbarkeit). Insgesamt lässt sich festhalten, dass eine frühestmögliche Standardisierung der Open Source Repositories durchgeführt werden sollte, um spätere Mehrarbeit zu vermeiden und die frühstmögliche Wiederverwendbarkeit für Dritte zu gewährleisten.

The quantification of CHNO was achieved by using the Rayleigh and Compton scattering spectra of an Rh X-ray tube from 84 different polymers. Concealed differences of the corresponding scattering spectra could be utilized to quantify CHNO in a multivariate manner. It was shown that the developed model was capable of determining these commonly non-measurable matrix elements in polymers using WDXRF. Furthermore, the influence of spectral resolution, which is given by the collimator and the crystal, on the prediction of CHNO was explored in this study. It was found that minimal spectral resolution led to the most accurate CHNO predictions. Information about matrix composition could be used to improve so-called semi-quantitative XRF methods based on fundamental parameters (FP) for the analysis of plastics, soil or other samples with high organic content.

For the planning and optimization of energy systems, an understanding of the temporal energy consumption is necessary. This paper discusses tools for estimating these load profiles. Load profiles for electricity, space heating and domestic hot water (DHW) are investigated. A total of ten tools were applied. It turns out that the selected load profiles are dependent on the field of application. Load profiles influence the results of energy system modeling and therefore it is important to differentiate load profile tools. Standardized load profiles are well suited when a large number of buildings are considered. Stochastic load profiles, behavioral load profiles and the reference load profiles are well suited for building-specific simulations. Physical load pro- files are well suited for single building models, but as soon as several buildings are considered, the input effort for a sufficient accuracy is high.

If individuals want to use health information from the Internet, they need Digital Health Literacy (eHL), which in addition to HL also includes, for example, media literacy. If information cannot be found or understood by patients due to low (e)HL, patients will not have the opportunity to make informed decisions. In addition, many health apps for self-management or prevention also require (e)HL. Thus, it follows that active participation in healthcare, in terms of Person-Centered Care (PCC) is only possible through (e)HL. Currently, there is a great need to strengthen these competencies in society to achieve increased empowerment of patients and their health. However, at the same time, there is a need to train and improve competencies in the field of healthcare professionals so that they can counsel and guide patients. This article provides an overview with a focus on HL and eHL in healthcare, shows the opportunities to adapt services and describes the possible handling of patients with low (e)HL. In addition, the opportunities for patients and healthcare professionals to improve (e)HL are highlighted.

The paper develops the ResourcePlan as (i) legal and (ii) a planning instrument to support the efficient use of resources in urban neighborhoods. The integrative, multi-methodological approach addresses the use of natural resources in the building and infrastructural sectors of (i) water (storm- and wastewater) management, (ii) construction and maintenance of buildings and infrastructure, (iii) urban energy system planning, and (iv) land-use planning. First, the development as legal instrument is carried out, providing (i) premises for integrating resource protection at all legal levels and (ii) options for implementing the ResourcePlan within German municipal structures. Second, the evaluation framework for resource efficiency of the urban neighborhoods is set up for usage as a planning instrument. The framework provides a two-stage process that runs through the phases of setting up and implementing the ResourcePlan. (Eco)system services are evaluated as well as life cycle assessment and economic aspects. As a legal instrument, the ResourcePlan integrates resource protection into municipal planning and decision-making processes. The multi-methodological evaluation framework helps to assess inter-disciplinary resource efficiency, supports the spatial identification of synergies and conflicting goals, and contributes to transparent, resource-optimized planning decisions.

Electronic medical records (EMRs) play an important role in documenting such complex processes. Despite their benefits, they can introduce unintended consequences if future users are not involved in their development. Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the acceptance of a novel module for nursing documentation by nurses working in the context of PPC. Methods: An observational study employing concurrent think-aloud and semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with 11 nurses working in PPC. Based on the main determinants of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), data were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Results: The main determinants of UTAUT were found to potentially influence acceptance of the novel module. Participants perceived the module to be self-explanatory and intuitive. Some adaptations, such as the reduction of fragmentation in the display, the optimization of confusing mouseover fields, and the use of familiar nursing terminology, are reasonable ways of increasing software adoption. Conclusions: After adaptation of the modules based on the results, further evaluation with the participation of future users is required.

Results: Requirements from the user’s perspective could be identified as possible influences on acceptance and actual use. Requirements were grouped into the categories “performance expectancies” and “effort expectancies”. Conclusions: The results serve as a basis for further development.

Energy system models are used to optimize, benchmark and compare such energy systems with the help of energy sustainability indicators. We discuss several indicators for their basic suitability and their response to changing boundary conditions, system structures and reference values. The most suitable parameters are applied to four different supply scenarios of a real-world urban energy system. Results: There is a number of energy sustainability indicators, but not all of them are suitable for the use in urban energy system optimization models. Shortcomings originate from the omission of upstream energy supply chains (secondary energy efficiency), from limited capabilities to compare small energy systems (energy productivity), from excessive accounting expense (regeneration rate), from unsuitable accounting methods (primary energy efficiency), from a questionable impact of some indicators on the overall system sustainability (self-sufficiency), from the lack of detailed information content (share of renewables), and more. On the other hand, indicators of absolute greenhouse gas emissions, energy costs, and final energy demand are well suitable for the use in optimization models. However, each of these indicators only represents partial aspects of energy sustainability; the use of only one indicator in the optimization process increases the risk that other important aspects will deteriorate significantly, eventually leading to suboptimal or even unrealistic scenarios in practice. Therefore, multi-criteria approaches should be used to enable a more holistic optimization and planning of sustainable urban energy systems. Conclusion: We recommend multi-criteria optimization approaches using the indicators of absolute greenhouse gas emissions, absolute energy costs, and absolute energy demand. For benchmarking and comparison purposes, specific indicators should be used and therefore related to the final energy demand, respectively the number of inhabitants. Our example scenarios demonstrate modeling strategies to optimize sustainability of urban energy systems.

The objective of this study was to relate surgical patients’ characteristics to the use and perception of several digital health technologies. In this single-center, cross-sectional survey study in the outpatient department of a university hospital in Germany, 406 patients completed a questionnaire with the following three domains: general information and use of the internet, smartphones, and general digital health aspects. Analyses were stratified by age group and highest education level achieved. We found significant age-based differences in most of the evaluated aspects. Younger patients were more open to using new technologies in private and medical settings but had more security concerns. Although searching for information on illnesses on the web was common, the overall acceptance of and trust in web-based consultations were rather low, with <50% of patients in each age group reporting acceptance and trust. More people with academic qualifications than without academic qualifications searched for information on the web before visiting physicians (73/121, 60.3% and 100/240, 41.7%, respectively). Patients with academic degrees were also more engaged in health-related information and communication technology use. These results support the need for eHealth literacy, health literacy, and available digital devices and internet access to support the active, meaningful use of information and communication technologies in health care. Uncertainties and a lack of knowledge exist, especially regarding telemedicine and the use of medical and health apps. This is especially pronounced among older patients and patients with a low education status.

This field is well known and established. But, an approach based on time-varied supply flow rates might improve indoor air quality, comfort, and energy consumption. Typical time-scales of the variation are in the order of seconds or minutes. Until now, the effects of unsteady ventilation scenarios are not fully described and so, reliable dimensioning rules are missing. Hence, with a better understanding of the flow in unsteady ventilation, systems can be calculated and optimised. To understand the effective mechanisms and derive functional relations between the flow field and variation parameters, full-field optical flow measurements are executed with a particle image velocimetry (PIV) system. Experiments are conducted under isothermal conditions in water in a small-scale room model (1.00 m × 0.67 m × 0.46 m) with two swirl ceiling diffusers, Reynolds-scaling assures similarity. In a series of experiments, the effects of different unsteady ventilation strategies on the flow fields are investigated and compared to steady conditions with the same mean exchange rate. Mean exchange rates, signal types, periods, and amplitudes are varied. Time-averaged normalised velocity fields already indicate notable differences between steady and unsteady cases especially for lower exchange rates: the distribution is more homogeneous in unsteady scenarios compared to steady conditions, and low-velocity areas are reduced while the mean velocity of the room increases. So, unsteady ventilation might be beneficial in terms of improved ventilation and energy savings in partial-load operation. Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) analyses of the mean velocity for each field over the whole series detect the main frequency of the volume flow variation. By dividing the velocity field into smaller areas, this main frequency is still detected especially in the upper part of the room, but side frequencies play a role in the room as well.

JF - International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health N2 - University students’ mental health and well-being is a growing public health concern. There is a lack of studies assessing a broad range of mental health domains by sex and academic level of study. This cross-sectional online survey of BSc, MSc, and PhD students (n = 3353, 67% female) enrolled at one university in Germany assessed a wide scope of mental health domains, covering positive (i.e., self-rated health, self-esteem, student engagement) and negative aspects (i.e., perceived stress, irritation, and screening positive for depression, anxiety, comorbidity, and psychological distress). We evaluated differences in mental health by sex and academic level. Overall, although self-rated health did not differ by sex and academic level, females and lower academic level were associated with less favorable mental health. Males reported higher prevalence of high self-esteem, and higher engagement (all p ≤ 0.04). Conversely, mean perceived stress and cognitive/emotional irritation were higher among females, as were rates for positive screenings for anxiety, anxiety and depression comorbidity, and psychological distress (p < 0.001 for all). Likewise, lower academic level (BSc) was associated with lower rates of high self-esteem (p ≤ 0.001), increased perceived stress (p < 0.001), and higher prevalence of positive screening for depression, anxiety, comorbidity, and psychological distress (p ≤ 0.002 for all), while higher academic level (PhD) was linked to increased student engagement (p < 0.001 for all). Although the effect sizes of sex and academic level on student mental health were modest, these findings support a need for action to establish and expand early detection and prevention programs, on-campus advisory services, and peer counseling that focus on the sex-specific and academic-study-level-specific factors, as well as mental health and career development resources for students. Academics and policy makers need to consider multipronged intervention strategies to boost confidence of students and their academic career.

However, interactive teaching poses a particular challenge, especially in large group formats. Various strategies are used to promote interaction, but there is little known about the results. This article shows different strategies and evaluates their influence on the interaction rate in a large group course over two terms that teaches digital medicine. Log files and participation in surveys as well as participation in chat were quantitatively evaluated. In addition, the chat messages themselves were evaluated qualitatively. For the evaluation, relation to the total number of participants was particularly relevant in order to be able to determine an interaction rate in the individual course sessions. A maximum average interaction rate of 90.97% could be determined over the entire term while the participants wrote an average of 3.96 comments during a session in the chat. In summary, this research could show that interactive elements should be well planned and used at regular intervals in order to reap the benefits.

Grundwasser- und Oberflächenwasserbeschaffenheit sowie Aquifer- und Deckwerksmaterial, unter denen die Ockerbildung in geotextilen und mineralischen Filteranlagen auftritt, noch nicht systematisch untersucht. Im Rahmen des vorliegenden Beitrags werden im ersten Schritt aus theoretischen Untersuchungen und Datenanalysen von Grundwasser- und Oberflächenwasseruntersuchungen Kriterien zur Bewertung der Verockerungsneigung abgeleitet. Diese Kriterien bzw. DOCP (decisive ochre clogging parameters) zeigen in den Ästuaren Ems, Weser und Elbe Beträge an, die Verockerungserscheinungen begünstigen bzw. ermöglichen. Auf Basis dieser Untersuchungen werden im zweiten Schritt Randbedingungen für zukünftige systematische in-situ Untersuchungen an wasserbaulichen Filteranlagen sowie im experimentellen Modell abgeleitet.

Through transparent on-packaging communication with consumers, organic producers have the opportunity to show attributes of organic production system and build a strong market position. The aim of the study was to analyse voluntary packaging information on organic milk from four European markets in the context of organic food quality, i.e., Germany, the Netherlands, Italy and Poland. More specifically, the textual content of 106 organic milk packages was analysed and voluntary information on each package was categorized according to process- and product-related organic milk attributes. The assortment and content of voluntary packaging information varied across the four countries. The largest number of products was found on the German market (37) and the smallest on the Polish market (14). Dutch milk had the greatest amount of voluntary information on animal welfare, product locality, environmental protection, quality confirmation, naturalness and nutritional value. German milk had the most information on enjoyment and conditions of processing, while the Italian milk on the social perspective. The products available on the Polish market had the least voluntary information. Pasteurized organic milk had noticeably more information about organic quality attributes than micro filtrated and UHT milk.
