Development of off-axis photoemission for 4-dimensional ultrafast electron microscopy
Ultrafast Electron Microscopy (UEM) is a novel technique for imaging which features generation of ultrashort electron probes to achieve on the order of femtosecond-nanometer spatiotemporal resolutions. In typical TEG based UEM architectures, photoemission is carried out from an on-axis LaB6 conical …

Improving the Teaching Staff Capacity to Integrate EdTech in the Teaching and Learning Processes at Eduardo Mondlane University
Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM) has been implementing training courses in the use of technologies in the teaching and learning process. However, despite the efforts made by the university, the use of these technologies by lecturers at UEM is limited, particularly in faculties outside the main …

The role of educational technology as an enabler for women's inclusion in the STEM fields: case study: Eduardo Mondlane University
… two decades. At Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM), women make up only 15% of engineering students. This underrepresentation is linked to deep-rooted social injustices, making it a systemic issue. Scholars argue that technology can promote more inclusive education by providing greater …

Beyond problem identification: valuing methods in a ‘system usability practice’
Historically, usability evaluation methods (UEMs) have been evaluated on their capability for problem identification. However, the relevance of this approach has been questioned for applied usability work. To investigate alternative explanations of what is important for method use a grounded theory …

Universities, Communities, and Service-Learning for Urban Development: Rethinking the Work of Kaya Clínica in Maputo, Mozambique
… the work of Universidade Eduardo Mondlane (UEM) in the Mozambican capital of Maputo and its relationship with the informal communities of the George Dimitrov neighborhood through a service-learning organization called Kaya Clínica. Kaya Clínica aims to address housing and urbanization …

Usability Problem Description and the Evaluator Effect in Usability Testing
Previous usability evaluation method (UEM) comparison studies have noted an evaluator effect on problem detection in heuristic evaluation, with evaluators differing in problems found and problem severity judgments. There have been few studies of the evaluator effect in usability testing (UT), …

The constitution of the field of higher education institutions in Mozambique
… 1986, joining the University Eduardo Mondlane (UEM) founded in 1962. The second stage is characterised by the emergence both of more public higher education institutions, but particularly by the emergence of a new type of higher education service supplier, the private higher education …

Using game design elements in Moodle to enhance student engagement at a Mozambican University
… the intervention at Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM), in Mozambique. The intervention consists of design principles informed by the Laurillard's Conversational Framework for applying gamification in the Moodle platform to motivate student engagement. Overall, three teachers and 112 students from …

Algorithms for structural learning with decompositions
… called Unified Expectation Maximization (UEM) [Samdani et al., 2012a] that covers several seemingly divergent versions of EM e.g. hard EM. To efficiently add domain-specific declarative constraints into learning, we use a dual projected subgradient ascent algorithm which naturally …

Does Participation in a Multi-Modal Activity-Based Program Impacts on Functional Recovery, and Quality of Life in Adults with Spinal Cord Injury?
… performed with mixed ANOVA's on measures of ASIA UEM and LEM scores, EuroQol, and SWLS to compare their means. The study proposed that participation in a multi-modal activity-based training program would be associated with greater functional recovery, less dependency on others for ADLs, fewer …

Comparative Study of Synchronous Remote and Traditional In-Lab Usability Evaluation Methods
… and less expensive usability evaluation methods (UEMs) have been developed over the past decade. One such UEM is the Remote Usability Evaluation method. Remote evaluation is a relatively new area and lacks empirical data to support the approach. The need for empirical support was addressed in this …

Investigating the Effectiveness of Applying the Critical Incident Technique to Remote Usability Evaluation
… evaluation is a usability evaluation method (UEM) where the experimenter, performing observation and analysis, is separated in space and/or time from the user. There are several approaches by which to implement remote evaluation, limited only by the availability of supporting technology. One …

A Usability Problem Inspection Tool: Development and Formative Evaluation
Usability inspection methods of user interaction designs have gained importance as an alternative to traditional laboratory-based testing methods because of their cost-effectiveness. However, methods like the heuristic evaluation are ad-hoc, lacking a theoretical foundation. Other, more formal …
