Belief is Agents' cognition of surrounding. Due to the dynamics of the environment, the new received belief may be conflicted with the original belief set when an agent got new information. Belief revision is to make sure the new belief set is a conflict-free set in this moment. This paper proposes a combined with debate way of belief revision, which use certainty-factor based argumentative framework...
We are exploring whether and how “Digital-Storytelling” can be used to a) attract and engage student apprentices otherwise estranged from STEM-linked career or education pathways b) help student apprentices address the complexities of ill-formed or “wicked” design problems typical of sustainable engineering. Building on preliminary evidence from a pilot 2014 study we hypothesize that apprentices who...
Seeing helps us understand better is an old saying. In engineering sciences, with the flurry of multimedia technologies, teaching and learning paradigms have shifted, problem-solving methods have evolved, optimization is the new buzzword and mathematical and scientific analyses have taken the front row for working. In this work we have explored the objectives of studying and understanding the elements...
Constructivism theory reveals the regularity of human cognition. According to constructivism theory, students will learn best by trying to make sense of something on their own with the teacher as a guide to help them along the way. Discrete mathematics is a very important course for computer majors. As discrete mathematics has quite rich contents and it is very abstract, it is not easy for students...
Learning forum, as Web-based education, is a popular research and development domain in educational technology. In recent years, a number of research groups have put a lot of efforts in developing suitable methodologies, approaches, tools, and practical systems to support Web-based education. There were also several introductory and papers covering the ontology or semantic annotation. However, there...
Digital Earth (DE) is a virtual presentation of the planet based on geographic coordinate, and is an information system with tremendous amount of multiple resolutions and multiple scales data as shown in multiple dimensions. It can visualize the real earth and represent historical phenomena in digital way by using the large amount of data of the earth, and utilizing the computer techniques, image...
