Why do we continue to cause traffic jams? How do we promote the use of active means of transport? Behavior is a complex concept, trying to influence behavior is even more complex. Still, governments use campaigns to steer people's behavior in the 'right' direction. Suppose the government gives you the assignment to draw up an intervention for a traffic- or mobility-related problem, how do you tackle this? Through the use of Intervention Mapping a framework is provided for the development of intervention programs. This framework consists of several steps starting with a problem analysis. In doing so, existing literature and suitable theories are used. The idea is that developing an intervention program is based on scientific evidence. The majority of your learning will be done through self-study, based on the course material that is made available online. You will have access to a range of useful online learning materials such as online lectures, reading materials, as well as access to thousands of e-books, online journals and other resources via our online university library. Approximately mid-semester, an online interactive Question and Answer session will be organised, where students can meet the course lecturer and fellow students online and have the opportunity to go deeper into the course material. All evaluations will be done online, whether by submission of assignments or by taking written or oral exams online, or a combination of assignments and exams. Written exams will be done with online proctoring (exam supervision) to retain the integrity of a supervised exam, while providing the flexibility of an online platform. For the online exams, distance learning students should ensure to have a laptop/pc with a working webcam and microphone, a charged mobile device (phone/tablet) and a stable internet connection (minimum upload speed of 1.5 MB/second), as well as a quiet, secluded room to take the exam in.
