Towards a Vision and Essential Steps in the Digital Transformation of Product Service Systems: A Scenario based Approach
Authors: Frings Sandra , Kett Holger
Published: October 2023

For traditional product manufacturers, digital transformation of products and services means dealing with challenges with which they have not dealt before. Especially the different measures to be taken on a business, organizational, technical and IT level and the competencies needed when advancing from traditional to smart products and services are often unclear for strategists in those companies. In our work, focusing on the early phase of smartification, we propose a support method for small and medium sized enterprises to formulate an ambitious product vision and derive a path of useful steps to go ahead from a traditional product without smart elements to the developed product vision using a scenario based approach. Our scenario framework was developed by analyzing and clustering characteristics of appropriate approaches resulting from a literature review, using two fundamentally different approaches which either develop products with a business model or a technical/functional perspective. In order to apply and support the product development with a maturity model of smartifying product service systems, the two different approaches were merged for elaborating a common product vision and three essential steps leading the path towards the vision. Starting with a product having no smart components, in the first step the product and services are digitalized and connectivity is added. The second step covers, next to further smart components, the enhancement of using AI technology in data processing. The third step brings innovative business models into play.

Authors: Flores Abner , Ziakkas Dimitrios , - Francois Delisle Jean
Published: October 2023

AAM (Advanced Air Mobility) is an emerging field in aviation that focuses on developing AAM / electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft for urban air mobility. Human-centered design can be used in AAM to provide an advanced emerging environment of the eVTOL aircraft and its operating environment, allowing for a more efficient and cost-effective development process – focusing on the human factors/ergonomics, training, certification, and qualification. Purdue School of Aviation and Transportation Technology proposed a research case study for digital twins in AAM that aims at designing and remote testing prototypes - eVTOL aircraft simulator devices. By creating a digital twin of the AAM flying/simulator device, designers (Purdue Human Factors team – CAE network) and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) aim to test different configurations and scenarios, allowing the research team to identify human factor – certification – training issues and optimize performance (Training – Certification requirements) before the physical prototype is built. Results were analyzed and evaluated the Artificial Intelligence (AI) certification and learning assurance challenges.
The role of Digital Twins in future transportation challenges
Authors: Ziakkas Dimitrios , Pechlivanis Konstantinos , Dillman Brian
Published: October 2023

Students enrolled in technical education programs, such as Aeronautical Engineering Technology, pursue careers in aviation, aerospace, and commercial space industries, encompassing physical and digital work environments. Gaining knowledge in a broader range of subjects, including digital twin settings, is crucial for contextual learning and generating graduates with the level of proficiency the industry demands. Crow and Dabars (2020) highlight the significance of instructional innovation in their analysis of the fifth-wave history of American colleges. There is a demand for the modification of conventional academic processes in order to better cater to the external needs of retraining and upskilling both current workers and recent graduates. The aviation and aerospace sectors have consistently incorporated the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Digital Twins, Big Data frameworks, automation, and robotics in diverse capacities into their routine operations over an extended period. The rapid progress in computer and sensor capabilities has facilitated the widespread adoption of many data science methods, such as the digital thread, digital twin, edge computing, machine-to-machine learning (M2M), and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Educational institutions, including prominent colleges like Purdue, must integrate digital thread and digital twin technologies into the learning framework beyond the introductory levels. For graduates to possess the necessary skills to join the workforce with a high level of preparedness, it is imperative to integrate Digital Twins into the learning cycle. The Purdue University CREATE approach for Augmented, Virtual, and Mixed Reality Simulation and Digital Twins is centered around enhancing the efficacy and efficiency of aviation training programs on a global scale, specifically the Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBTA) framework. This approach aims to achieve this by offering a more authentic and immersive learning experience proposal, streamlining the training and certification processes, and facilitating the transition to an Artificial Intelligence (AI) – Digital Twins environment. The present study also focuses on reducing residual risk within the 'AI black box.' The analysis and evaluation of the difficulties of implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) were conducted within the framework of Digital Twins.

Published: October 2023

At the dawn of Urban Air Mobility (UAM), namely the introduction of eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-off & Landing) vehicles, we have been pioneering in designing a certifiable flight training programme for those pilots who will be the first in the world to operate such vehicles.This paper will discuss our training design path we pursued, the research and development work behind it and finally the resulting training design. Emphasis is laid on the analysis of the training needs, our design approach based on human-factors research and development, the requirements for the design of new flight simulators, and how a close cooperation with OEMs and aviation authorities made us validate this flight training programme course, which will prepare future eVTOL pilots for a safe and sustainable operation in Urban Air Mobility in just one year from now.
Effects of reflective writing for students in the design project
Authors: Chen Pan Yen , Chen Hsi-Jen
Published: October 2023

In the field of design, experts employ flexible design methods and resources to solve problems, which would be the learning goal that learners might be able to accomplish step by step by reflection. Efficient learning requires more than just accumulating knowledge. It necessitates proper organization, internalization, and reflection. In this study, we integrated the adjusted empathy maps as reflection tools into the "Archaeology and Design" course to assess the students‘ reflective states in the design process. This course involves a design project centered around indigenous culture, guided by the four stages of the Double Diamond design model (2003). The research focused on the students' thinking process and their reflective abilities. With the aims mentioned above, this study used qualitative data based on the empathy maps on students' reflections on the design process and their own reflection status on the four design stages from the Double Diamond design model (2003). We instructed students to journal down the circumstances they encountered and the feelings they experienced. They had to do the reflection by answering the questions on the empathy map at every stage of the design process. Aside from that, we also did the reflection questionnaires having been designed by Kember et al.(2000) and Sobral( 2001), which could demonstrate the change before and after the 4 stages of reflection. For the analysis, the reflective texts were analyzed based on the model created by Terry Borton (1970), which consisted of three key questions: what, so what, and now what. And, the results of the questionnaires would be analyzed with Wilcoxon signed rank test by using SPSS 19.After the analysis, we not only observed an increase in the amount of reflective content, but also identified three main points that appeared in the texts of the reflective writings. These points included the integration of information, fostering more creative thinking, and developing a heightened awareness of student designers themselves and their peers. Based on these ascertainments, we concluded that through this form of reflective writing, students are able to retrospect the past and contemplate their next steps. By engaging in reflective practices, students not only enhance their design and reflective abilities, but also develop a deeper understanding of themselves and others throughout the design project, which are significant in the process of becoming an expert. Additionally, the study aims to promote design reflection and extend the impact of this research by sharing its results.

Published: October 2023

Engaging students in research is a high-impact practice shown to increase graduation outcomes and sustain their pursuit of careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). However, research opportunities for students early in their undergraduate studies are not widely available at most colleges or for most students. To overcome this barrier, we developed three online resources designed to introduce students to what research is and direct them on how to get started with the search for research opportunities. These resources consist of (a) two introductory videos to inspire students to learn more about research, (b) online modules on a variety of topics, including getting started with research, transferable research skills, and publications and presentations, and (c) a searchable research faculty directory. We found these online resources to be an effective way to reach and engage a large number of undergraduate students who are accustomed to obtaining information on the web. These online resources can also serve as useful supplemental resources for advising staff and faculty who wish to introduce students to research.

Repetitive and monotonous work is often associated with neck pain, potentially resulting in sick leave and reduced productivity. Establishing appropriate muscle activity patterns, including duration and frequency of breaks that can prevent development of neck pain is important for providing workplace guidance. While several smaller studies of monotonous neck-loading work have indicated that such breaks can reduce the risk of neck pain, studies with a higher number of participants are necessary to confirm an association, and if so, to improve the precision of a possible association. The purpose of this protocol is to describe and discuss the background, methods and challenges of a study pooling several datasets with measurements of upper trapezius muscle activity during work and associated measurements of neck pain. Methods: Seven Scandinavian research institutes provided surface electromyographic (EMG) data of upper trapezius muscle activity recorded during working hours along with questionnaire data with information about neck pain and other health-related factors, from a total of 750 participants. The different data sets of the EMG data will be merged into a common format. Various questions on neck pain will be harmonized. Associations between EMG variables and neck pain will be examined with linear mixed model regressions controlled for various confounders. Discussion: Aiming to provide further insight into the possible association between trapezius muscle activity pattern and neck pain, this study protocol highlights the challenges that arise when creating a pooled data set. Solving these challenges may help to increase the knowledge about appropriate muscle activity patterns during work.
The Effect of Automated Agents on Individual Performance Under Induced Stress
Authors: Singh Lokesh , Ramchurn Sarvapali
Published: October 2023

Induced stress is a phenomenon commonly experienced across different fields such as emergency services, healthcare, air traffic control, sports, and business - which necessitates the development of effective coping strategies and resilience for individuals or teams performing under pressure. This study aims to examine the effects of automated agents on individual performance during high-stress conditions. The design of these agents ensures they carry out identical tasks as participants based on predetermined frameworks. Participants underwent an experimentally designed task that aimed at inducing stress while measuring their performance amidst time pressure and auditory distraction. Results indicate that working with automated agents causes individuals to alter their approach by focusing narrowly on immediate concerns - making it challenging for them to consider several options or see broader contexts accurately. Regardless of ability level participants' performances were influenced by these automated agents. Future research will explore how these findings interact with physiological signals. This study highlights the importance of developing effective coping strategies and the potential impact of social factors on individual performance under induced stress.
Workload analysis of courier trolley push and pull for express couriers
Authors: Cheng Hong-in , Jie Deng Jun
Published: October 2023

Express couriers typically move packages by pushing and pulling trolleys as part of their duties. Rolltainers and hand carts are the most common courier trolleys. As a result of COVID-19, online shopping has expanded dramatically around the world and express courier services have become a part of everyday life. Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are prevalent occupational diseases caused by repetitive pushing and pulling activities. This study investigated the physical and subjective workloads associated with straight and curved pushing/pulling of hand carts and rolltainers for express delivery. There have been many ergonomic studies conducted on pushing and pulling tasks, however, little research has been conducted on the effects of pulling and pushing directions on hand carts and rolltainers. Twenty-three professional express delivery workers participated in the study. A push and pull delivery trolley task was assessed using EMG and subjective perceived exertion in this study. A general observation was made that BIC and UT are less activated than TRI and ES when pushing and pulling delivery trolleys. Pushing a trolley is more effective than pulling one in reducing WMSD risk. A rolltainer would be preferred over a hand cart to reduce workload. The study found that hand carts generate more muscle activity when moved in a straight direction than when moved in a curved direction.
A novel stimulation protocol for vestibular rehabilitation
Authors: La Scaleia Barbara , Lacquaniti Francesco , Zago Myrka
Published: October 2023

Vestibular hypofunction due to aging or disease can be severely debilitating for daily life, causing dizziness, space disorientation, imbalance, limited mobility, and increased risk of falls. Current methods and techniques for vestibular rehabilitation often fail short of achieving stable, effective results due to the lack of physiologically-based, ergonomic approaches. Here we propose a novel approach based on the application of small-amplitude random displacements of the head and body, which can lead to enhanced vestibular function. The phenomenon we studied is akin to stochastic resonance, whereby the application of a given, optimal level of noise during periodic or non-periodic stimuli can determine an increased sensitivity in nonlinear systems, such as the vestibular perceptual system. The idea is that an appropriate level of noise can raise subthreshold stimuli above threshold, thereby making them detectable by the brain. We tested the protocol in a series of experiments involving 30 healthy young participants who were asked to discriminate the direction of whole-body motion imparted by a MOOG platform. Blindfolded subjects were presented with the discrimination of forward-backward single-cycle sinusoidal motion in a two-alternative forced-choice paradigm. The procedure followed an adaptive staircase. Vestibular threshold (i.e., minimum amplitude of applied motion that was discriminated by the subjects) was then computed from the slope of the psychometric function fitting the individual performance. We compared the vestibular threshold between the baseline condition (no external noise) and the conditions when band-limited white-noise was applied by the platform in the forward-backward direction. We found that in 26/30 participants the discrimination threshold was better with at least one noise level than that at baseline. The overall response curve roughly obeyed the bell-shaped function typical of stochastic resonance. We conclude that small-amplitude noise can ameliorate vestibular perception even in healthy young subjects. The advantage of this approach is that it is non-invasive and ecological, since it involves the application of small oscillations to the patient. Moreover, the task is easily understood since it consists of a classical discrimination paradigm.
Development of an ontology that connects clinical psychology knowledge and Top Ontology
Authors: Oshiyama Chiaki , Nishimura Takuichi
Published: October 2023

In clinical psychology, various techniques are used to improve the mental state of subjects.．In clinical psychology, there are areas for each technique, and problem-solving cases have been reported for each area. There are various approaches to solving the same problem. Some of these elements are common and some are different. However, because they have been reported separately, knowledge sharing beyond each domain has not been carried out. In recent years, ontologies related to clinical psychology have been developed. Clinical medicine ontology CONAND (Clinical Ontology in Anatomaical Structure and Disease) and The Behavior Change Intervention Ontology (BCIO) are ontologies related to medicine and behavioral change. These are very useful for searching clinical medicine and methods for behavior modification. However, it is not possible to retrieve the specific contents of actual problem solving in clinical psychology. In order to solve these problems, it is first necessary to extract knowledge from clinical psychology cases and clarify their relationships. So far, we have extracted and structured knowledge from several case studies and the practice of one psychotherapy technique, and by conducting workshops based on this knowledge, we have elaborated the structured knowledge and formalized tacit knowledge that can be verbalized. I have made knowledge and arranged it in the structure. By structuring the knowledge and actions taken to solve the problem in a goal-oriented manner, we clarified the relationship between the procedure to achieve the goal and the practice action to clear each stage. Through these activities, clinical psychologists were able to realize the meaning of actions in the activities and practice methods that they had unconsciously performed so far, and to acquire metacognition in practice. Next, we extracted important words from this knowledge and created an ontology based on them. By having this ontology scrutinized, we would like to connect it to existing ontologies related to clinical psychology, such as CONAND and BCIO. Our ultimate goal is to make it possible to retrieve structured knowledge that visualizes how problems were solved in cases from the system. There are various techniques in clinical psychology. At present, it largely depends on the ability and intuition of clinical psychologists to determine which technique is better for solving the problem. In the future, we would like to develop AI that can propose more appropriate methods by incorporating various information into this system.

Published: October 2023

Integrating sensors and screen interfaces directly into mobility devices offers individuals living with mobility issues, and medical providers, the opportunity to monitor health data and offer patient-specific therapeutic feedback in real time. This paper presents a series of prototypes that were developed in order to assess how these features can be optimally integrated into common mobility devices such as the walking cane. The early prototypes explored strategies for mounting a smartphone to a cane, as a low-cost strategy for improving mobility and reducing isolation by making use of smartphone apps for wayfinding, gait tracking, and video-conferencing. The later prototypes focused on the non-invasive integration of physiological sensors, in particular a pulse oximeter, to provide instantaneous physiological data to both the user and healthcare providers. Through a process of prototyping and critique, and integrating feedback from users, we developed an iterative series of designs that explore new strategies for affordable and easily accessible assistive technology. We conclude with a discussion of how these design strategies might be further developed and combined in order to provide more opportunities for seniors living with mobility issues to age in place.
Behavior-based Understanding of Elderly People with Dementia: A Hierarchical Classification of Daily Object Use
Authors: Shimada Natsuki , Noto Kota , Kitamura Koji , Nishida Yoshifumi
Published: October 2023

Providing individualized daily living care is quintessentially important to ensure the quality of life for elderly individuals, especially in nursing homes. Such care involves facilitating independent living, supporting social participation within nursing home settings, and preventing unintentional injuries such as falls. To effectively implement this, caregivers need to thoroughly understand the daily living activities of elderly people and to improve their living environments. The purpose of this study is to develop a system that can assist in planning residents' daily living care through automatically summarizing the daily activities in their rooms using depth cameras that respect privacy. The developed system consists of a function for extracting how elderly individuals use daily objects and another function for classifying behaviors based on the object use activities through hierarchical clustering. This system allows caregivers to understand the daily routines of the residents without predefining behaviors to be identified. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, the authors applied the method to analyzing 9 days’ worth of activities of an 87-year-old female resident in a nursing home. The experimental results demonstrate that the system was able to detect abnormal behaviors such as the repeated, unnatural use of drawers, without any predefined criteria for abnormal behaviors. The caregivers confirmed the utility of the system in summarizing daily behavior patterns and automatically detecting abnormal behaviors typically seen in elderly individuals with dementia.

Published: October 2023

In Japan, more than 1 million cataract surgeries were performed in 2009, mainly for elderly persons. Moreover, ICL (Implantable Contact Lens) surgery is getting popular among the young. One of the authors’ mother had cataract surgery in 2015. When the author asked her about the experience during the surgery, the author was told that it was painless because of the anesthesia and that the surgery was completed in about 15 minutes.However, in the summer of 2022, the author underwent surgery on both eyes. The author's experience as a patient was different from what he had get from his mother. During the surgery, visual information continued to enter the brain through the optic nerve, and at the same time, auditory information entered the brain through the ears, such as the doctor's instructions to change the patient's posture and the progress of the surgery, filling the patient's consciousness with this combined information. Although this was the same as the explanation given by the doctor during the preoperative informed consent, the author could not imagine in advance what kind of visual and auditory information the patient would receive and how he would feel during the approximately 15 minutes of the surgery.As a result, although there was no pain during the surgery, the visual information was uninterrupted, and the patient felt very scared and overloaded. After the patch over my eye was removed the day after the surgery, everything seemed brighter than before, so the author felt very happy to take that surgery. However, the author would like to inform the visual and auditory information experienced during the surgery to patients who are ready for operation using simulator. Therefore, we started to develop “EYES” which generate visual and audio information using VR goggles and headphones. In the paper, we will describe the system overview of EYES, and we will demonstrate the system at poster and demonstration session.
Exploring the Influencing Factors of Personal Loyalty to Health Passbooks: Extending the Perspective of Consumption Values
Authors: Hsieh Pi-jung , Lai Hui-min , Yang Yung-ching
Published: October 2023

As Taiwan’s society ages, chronic disease and long-term care have become more common. The National Health Insurance Administration (NHIA) in Taiwan uses health passbooks as self-health monitoring tools to assist in disease prevention. As a result, the health passbook is widely used, and its user satisfaction and numbers have greatly increased, making it an important self-health management tool. However, a high level of satisfaction does not necessarily translate into continued willingness to use the health passbook. Therefore, this study extends consumption value theory and integrates user satisfaction with subjective well-being to explain which factors affect user loyalty to health passbooks. The subjects of the study are Taiwanese citizens who are over 20 years old and have used health passbooks. The resulting 471 valid questionnaires constituted a response rate of 90.9%. The results showed that functional, emotional, epistemic, and conditional value had positive effects on user satisfaction. Moreover, user satisfaction and subjective well-being had a positive and significant impact on loyalty. The results of this study provide valuable insights into how to enhance the willingness of users to embrace health passbooks, which is helpful for governments and hospitals to increase the likelihood of user loyalty.

Published: October 2023

The roles required of nurses are becoming more diverse and complex, and the number of nurses who feel mentally unwell due to stress is increasing. One of the countermeasures is psychological safety. A workplace with a high level of psychological safety is linked to the revitalization of the organization, such as improved employee engagement and performance. In addition, it is effective in terms of mental health, such as relieving stress for employees. In this study, we examined the relationship between psychological safety and organizational health promotion support for nurses, and examined the organizational climate of health that enhances psychological safety. A web questionnaire was conducted for nurses working in hospitals in Japan, using the items of attributes, health promotion support, and psychological safety. The survey was conducted in March 2022, and the data of 377 people were considered valid responses based on the time required to respond. Respondents were 17.2% male and 82.8% female, with an average age of 43.1±9.6 years and an average of 12.6±8.8 years of service. Psychological safety scores by attribute were highest for those in their 50s, followed by those in their 20s, and those in their 30s and 40s. There was a large gap between executives and staff (F(3.019) = 0.000). Many of the items related to organizational climate of health and health promotion efforts were significantly correlated with psychological safety scores (p<0.05). The items requiring priority improvement were "high interest for health and safety of hospital organizations" and "high interest in creating a healthy working environment for hospital organizations". From the above, it is important to consider how to make the health support system known and how to promote its use so that nurses can continue to work in a healthy and motivated manner. In addition, since the psychological safety of mid-career nurses and, staff nurses without titles such as chief nurse or director of nursing, it is important to consider support specialized for them.

An Investigation of Time Distributions for Task Primitives to Support the HUNTER Dynamic Human Reliability Analysis
Authors: Park Jooyoung , Yang Taewon , Kim Jonghyun , Boring Ronald , Pope Chad
Published: October 2023

As an effort to support data collection for dynamic human reliability analysis (HRA), this study investigates time distributions for task primitives defined in the Goals, Operators, Methods, and Selection rules (GOMS)–Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) method. GOMS-HRA was developed to provide cognition-based time and human error probability information for dynamic HRA calculation in the Human Unimodel for Nuclear Technology to Enhance Reliability (HUNTER) framework. HUNTER is a framework to support the dynamic modelling of human error in conjunction with other modelling tools. In this paper, we investigate time distributions using experimental data collected from the Simplified Human Error Experimental Program (SHEEP) study, which suggests an HRA data collection framework to complement full-scope simulator research as well as collect input data for dynamic HRA using simplified simulators such as the Rancor Microworld Simulator. In this study, time required for GOMS-HRA task primitives to satisfy thirteen statistical distributions is investigated. Then, the time distributions from student operators and professional operators are compared and discussed. As a result, this study identified several time distributions on five GOMS-HRA task primitives at a statistically significant level. According to analyses to date, a greater number of significant time distributions was found in abnormal or emergency operating procedures rather than standard operating procedures. In the future, it is expected that the result of this study can provide objective reference on elapsed time data for task primitives as well as help to realistically simulate scenarios within dynamic HRA.

3D GARMENT SIMULATION AS A TOOL TO ACTUALIZE THE DESIGN IDEAS OF FASHION STUDENTS
Authors: BUYUKASLAN OOSTEROM Evrim
Published: October 2023

This study explores how fashion design students perceive using 3D garment simulation to create their

design ideas. As a part of an elective course taught in Fall 2022, twelve students were given a project to

prepare virtual and physical garments of their design. The study had two parts: First was understanding

students' expectations about 3D garment simulation before starting the project, and second was

understanding students’ experience after completing the project and comparing their before and after

project experiences. Accordingly, a structured questionnaire measured on a seven-point Likert scale was

applied to the students before starting their project to see their self-confidence of using 3D garment

simulation, and after the project to understand their self-evaluations of their performance and difficulties

they encountered during the project. The first part of the study presented here shows that students had a

high self-confidence (M=5.16) that they will successfully apply their project digitally and it will be

similar to their physical garment (M=5.50). Still, they were not so confident if the digital garment would

be visually satisfying (M=4.92). Students were highly convinced that using 3D garment simulation is

very useful (M=6.42) to visualize their projects before starting to work on it and they had high intention

(M= 6.00) to use it in the future. After project results showed that students self-evaluated their

performance higher than before project expectations. Students' evaluations for the perceived usefulness

of 3D garment simulation to visualize their project and intention to use it in the future dropped after the

project (M= 6.17 and M=5.75, respectively). Finally, students had the most difficulty creating the

patterns and achieving the correct digital fit.

In the introductory part of this paper, the authors provide a short historical survey of inventions from the simplest computers to contemporary social networks. They state that computerization has become one of the constitutive elements of modern societies and point to enormous advantages in business, communication, education, social transition and interaction. They also notice some less desirable by-products of the informatization process that concern a the personal level of an individual: alienation, exposure, manipulation, possible endangerment of the moral and emotional dimension. Additional ethical challenges of computerization concern children, which the authors have dealt with elsewhere (Kovačević, Vrbanec, Tomić, 2022). With this paper, the authors want to contribute to the debate on the ethical aspect of informatization. They support the education of the social community about the ethical challenges of informatization, as well as the education of information experts about ethics and about possible threats to the rights of individuals. They call for the development of an integrated information policy at the national and international level.

Representation of war experiences in Zoran Žmirić’s novel Blockbuster The paper analyzes the representation of the war experiences of a group of soldiers on the front line of the battlefield during the Homeland War, depicted in the novel Blockbuster (2009) by the writer Zoran Žmirić. The thematization of warrior activities is based on the intertwining of military operations and scouting actions with the presentation of personal moral doubts, psychological traumas of individuals and collectives. In the novel, the characters specific to contemporary Croatian war prose are shaped in an interesting way (figures of warriorsdefenders, enemies, victims, traitors, war invalids). Relying on the theoreticalmethodological assumptions of selected narratological concepts, literary studies of memory and theories of disability, the paper will analyze the narrative strategies used to thematize the war experience in Žmirić's action war novel; the role of retrospective narrative episodes will be investigated, the hint of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), the role of amputation metaphors, and the design and purpose of warrior instruments will be also investigated.

The paper discusses the relationship between assessment in teaching English as a foreign language and students’ competencies. The data collected by this research show that, in recent times, teachers and students are becoming aware that learning based only on the acquisition of facts will not adequately respond to the challenges they will face in the future. An environment in which the learning outcomes are transparently and directly linked to the students’ competencies enables them to take responsibility for their progress, not only during the official period of schooling but also during lifelong learning, which is very important. With this approach, learning outcomes and their connection with the necessary competencies to achieve learning outcomes become the basis for redefining qualifications and curricula in general and professional education. The transparent connection of learning outcomes and necessary competencies to achieve learning outcomes, as well as the shift of focus from teachers to students, enables students to find their way of improving competencies and taking responsibility for their learning. Learning outcomes are best understood by viewing them as a series of valuable processes and opportunities that can be applied in different ways in different areas of teaching and learning. The emphasis is on defining the learning outcomes so that we use the students’ experience and pay less attention to the content of the subjects of a specific curriculum. The data from this research indicate that learning outcomes impact assessment if they are adequately linked to competencies. Students can monitor their progress and take responsibility for it. The primary outcome of this research is that assessment aligned with progress in students’ competencies and their connection to learning outcomes will certainly improve learning.
