At the beginning we would like to provide a short description of the new theory of learning in the digital age called connectivism. It is the integration of principles explored by the following theories: chaos, network, complexity and self-organization. Next, we describe in short new visual solutions for the teaching of writing so called multimodal literacy 5–11. We define and describe the following...
Technical culture is the value of each historical period. It is the subject of the ongo-ing development. While it is a value which is associated with different categories of values, mainly material, cognitive, social. Between culture and these three categories of values there is a cognitive effect. Technical culture determines the quality of hu-man axjosphere. The aim of this study is to show the...
In this paper I present a program Maxima, which is one of the best computer algebra system (CAS). The program is easy to use and offers many possibilities. In the text the interface, basic commands, and various examples to facilitate complex calculations in almost every field of mathematics are preented. I prove that the program can be used in secondary schools, upper secondary schools and college...
The paper discusses the structure and principle of operation of programs for integrated modelling of the processes of heat treatment of porous-structure steel charges, such as long product bundles or strip or wire coils. Consideration is given to the specificity of these models in respect to porous charges. This is associated with their untypical thermal properties, which are expressed using the concept...
Applications of Cloud Computing in enterprises are very wide-ranging. In opposition, educational applications of Cloud Computing in Poland are someway limited. On the other hand, young people use services of Cloud Computing frequently. Utilization of Facebook, Google or other services in Poland by young people is almost the same as in Western Europe or in the USA. Taking into account those considerations,...
This paper shows how GeoGebra can be helpful in teaching mathematics. GeoGebra is an interactive geometry, algebra, statistics and calculus application, intended for learning and teaching mathematics and science from primary school to university level. It can be used for active and problem oriented teaching and fosters mathematical experiments and discoveries both in classroom and at home. In this...
The article includes an analysis of the results of research on the influence of visualization on the effectiveness of training. It analyzes the application of visualization in engineering education with a particular focus on visual design principles. Examples of the use static and dynamic visualization in multimedia learning in technology and computer science are presented.
The world of technology can be a tool to support development processes, primarily cognitive, emotional and motivational. Adoption issues shaping the image function in the technical thinking of students is justified in many ways: a – impact on the develop-ment of human image; b – multidimensional image and diversity of its media resourc-es; c – the influence of the image on shaping the attitudes and...
Wireless sensor networks have attracted attention of researchers considering their abundant applications. One of the important issues in this network is limitation of energy consumption which is directly related to life of the network. One of the main works which have been done recently to confront with this problem is clustering. In this paper, an attempt has been made to present clustering method...
The aim of this work is to investigate a theoretical study of a vertical junction silicon solar cell capacitance under monochromatic illumination. By solving the continuity equation and using a one dimensional model in frequency modulation, we derive the analytical expressions of both excess minority carrier density and photovoltage. Based on these expressions, the solar cell capacitance was calculated;...
Computer 3D modelling allows designing or mapping objects and then their photorealistic visualization. In the programs for creating 3D graphics a user often loses judgement as to which technique to use during the process. It is also a major problem in teaching graphics, because the final result can be obtained by various methods using tools available in the programs. This paper presents and discusses...
The subject of this article contains selected methods of optimization of educational work using selected computer tools, such as e-learning. The use of information technologies is a common feature of teaching methods, which include e-learning. Through a distance learning, teaching and learning process became accessible from anywhere, at any age and time. Virtual contact between the teacher and the...
The article presents the possibilities of virtualization technical thinking within the information technology. This question expresses the need for virtualization of existing information systems to improve the conduct of business by the company. In resulting virtualization of the technical-computer thought on against existing needs of the functioning of 16-bit systems in 64-bit systems. Enables cost-effective...
Wireless sensor network consists of numerous small and low cost sensors which collect and transmit environmental data. These nodes are spatially distributed and capable of measuring their ambient. Sensor node is responsible for collecting data in regular intervals, converting the obtained data into electronic signals and transmitting data to sink node or base station through reliable wireless communications...
The specificity of the yard work requires the particularly careful treatment of the issues of scheduling and budgeting in the production planning processes. The article presents the method of analysis of the assembly sequence taking into account the duration of individual activities and the demand for resources. A method of the critical path and resource budgeting were used. Modelling of the assembly...
Preparation of Polypropylene ternary nanocomposites (PPTN) was accomplished by blending multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) in polypropylene/clay binary system using a melt intercalation method. The effects of MWCNT loadings (A), melting temperature (B) and mixing speed (C) were investigated and optimized using central composite design. The analysis of the fitted cubic model clearly indicated that A...
Distributed databases were developed in order to respond to the needs of distributed computing. Unlike traditional database systems, distributed database systems are a set of nodes that are connected with each other by network and each of nodes has its own database, but they are available by other systems. Thus, each node can have access to all data on entire network. The main objective of allocated...
The technique comes in almost all areas of human life, tying a person inextricably, which requires a change in the concept of the practice of thinking and acting. Thus, forcing a man to actively explore new technologies, equipments, machines, tools and use them in everyday life. It is important that this knowledge is structured, grounded and connected not only with practical action, but with technical...
The article presents the results of studies on the effect of technological parameters of vibration shot peening upon the shape of bearing curves and the parameters of that curve. The topography of surface formed in result of vibration shot peening and pre-machining, which was grinding, were analyzed. The material used in the studies was alloy steel 30HGSA. The shot peening process was performed on...
The paper presents the results of studies on the effectiveness of the shot peening process for thin-walled parts based on the diameter of impressions produced by the impact of shot media. It is also described the current applications of this treatment for the thin-walled parts. The authors described an innovative measuring device which was used in the research. The material used in the studies was...
