System Dynamics-Based Interactive Learning Environment for Formative (Self-)Assessment
An online system dynamics-based interactive learning environment (ILE) can be designed to assess the trainees' capabilities, in accordance with the formative assessment paradigm. Through a simulated business environment, trainees have the opportunity to virtually manage their own company (system) while taking on various roles that mirror real-life scenarios related to the phenomenon analyzed by the ILE. The ILE has a feature that allows the assessment of such capabilities by measuring key indicators that determine the feasibility, effectiveness, and efficiency of their decision-making when running a firm within a specific operational context. From this standpoint, implementing a practical approach that enables trainees to confidently evaluate their capabilities in a protected environment (simulations) would produce the following different benefits for them: a) Personalized Learning: Interactive learning environments can adapt to suit trainees' individual learning styles, making the learning experience more personalized and effective; b) Interactive Learning Experience: Interactive learning environments offer learners the opportunity to engage actively in the learning process, facilitating better retention of knowledge; c) Real-time Feedback: Interactive learning environments provide learners with instant feedback, which helps them to identify gaps in their knowledge and improve immediately; d) Collaborative Learning: Interactive learning environments encourage learners to work collaboratively, which has proven benefits for memory retention and enhanced peer learning.

Empowerment Dynamics in Health Management and Entrepreneurship
Empowerment dynamics refer to the processes and factors that enhance individuals' capacity to control their personal and professional lives. This concept is especially significant in various contexts, such as the health management of chronic patients and entrepreneurship, particularly in post-crisis scenarios like the COVID-19 pandemic. It encompasses access to resources, support, and opportunities that help individuals overcome challenges and achieve their objectives. A theoretical framework was developed through PhD research, elucidating the mechanisms behind these challenges and their implications for fostering diversity, social innovation, and sustainability. This approach not only compares chronic patients with entrepreneurs and validates the theoretical framework in a group of chronic patients but also proposes practical strategies to harness diversity, innovation, and entrepreneurship in post-crisis contexts.
