Janssens, LiisaVerkerk, Maarten J.2020-02-182020-02-182016https://mediarep.org/handle/doc/14333This essay discusses the idea of wisdom coaches for end-of-life dialogues. It is shown that end-oflife discussions are dominated by the medical-technological imperative that results in a widespread overtreatment of patients. It is argued that end-of-life dialogues have to revolve around the meaning of dying. The question is: how do we facilitate end-of-life dialogues? The idea of a mixed-reality wisdom coach that uses gaming principles is explored. The complexity of the design is understood and supported by the ontology as developed by Dutch philosopher Herman Dooyeweerd.engCreative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 Genericwisdom coachend-of-lifemixed realityspiritualitymeaning of dying004700Herman Dooyeweerd10.25969/mediarep/134119789462984493https://doi.org/10.25969/mediarep/13454
