Context-aware remote training using LoC systems. (A) Training workflow. In the first lecture (taught to both groups) the students are taught the theory of LoC systems and their applications to pathogen detection. In the second lecture (taught only to the experimental group), the students are taught how to program LoC systems. Both lectures are taught in the students’ native language. The students in the experimental group are then assigned a project detecting bacteria in water samples. They then complete the assignment, upload their code and receive feedback. The LoC system is then run with their code and the data is produced, analyzed and returned to the students. (B) Example of detection of E. coli in the samples of one of the groups. Left: Detection of E. coli over 8 s. Right: Individual peak detected and corresponding E. coli bacterium that emitted the peak.
