Neuro-critical care is a complex environment where clinicians have to deal with a great variety and amount of data on a daily basis. The different types of medical equipment and software often pose challenges to clinicians as they are separate systems and lack long data storage which is necessary to trend patient health over time. An observational study has been conducted, followed by the first step of a Cognitive Work Analysis approach to understand and visualize key components of this field in more depth. This so-called Work Domain Analysis shows findings for relations between the different abstract levels of neuro-critical care monitoring and treatment, as well as the nervous system and cognition. The abstract representation shapes the basis of designing an Ecological Interface.

Work Domain

Cognitive work analysis (CWA) is gaining recognition as a promising approach for the analysis, design, and evaluation of complex, sociotechnical systems. However, the successful and widespread application of work domain analysis (WDA), the first phase of CWA, is limited by the lack of a coherent theoretical approach. This paper addresses a number of theoretical issues relating to WDA, including differences in the approaches of Rasmussen, Pejtersen & Goodstein (1994) and Vicente (1999), and it illustrates these theoretical issues with a work domain of a home — a 'system' that will be highly familiar to everyone. This research will help to: make WDA more accessible to researchers and practitioners who were not involved in the development of WDA or who cannot be apprenticed to experts in WDA; reduce the amount of time and effort it takes to perform WDA even for experts in the area; and facilitate the application of WDA to large-scale, industry projects.

Cognitive work analysis (CWA) is gaining recognition as a promising approach for the analysis, design, and evaluation of complex, sociotechnical systems. The successful and widespread application of CWA, however, is limited by the lack of a well-defined methodology. This paper proposes a methodology for performing work domain analysis (WDA), the first phase of CWA, and it illustrates this methodology with a work domain of a home — a 'system' that will be highly familiar to everyone. This research will help to: make WDA more accessible to researchers and practitioners who were not involved in the development of WDA or who cannot be apprenticed to experts in WDA; reduce the amount of time and effort it takes to perform WDA even for experts in the area; and facilitate the application of WDA to large-scale, industry projects.

Pedagogical Methods

A systematic research program is described that utilizes cognitive work analysis as an integrative framework within which pedagogical methods based on principles of cognitive science can be systematically harmonized with pedagogical objectives arising from the structure of course content. The test bed for the program was a course in introductory psychology. A work domain analysis was conducted which included both course content and pedagogical methodology. These analyses allowed a clear specification of learning objectives and a corresponding pedagogical to meet these objectives, along with a framework for employing appropriate technology and assessing effectiveness.
