Tracking motion activities through pedometer applications is one of the methods often mentioned for getting information about motion programs and for promoting a healthy lifestyle among adolescents. Similar problems are also addressed in the region of Northwestern Bohemia which is affected by certain structural characteristics. Aim of Study: This study strives to establish indicators of participation...
As threats to migratory birds in the Western Hemisphere, including North America, intensify and bird populations decline, there is a growing interest among zoo biologists in the conservation and management of these taxa. The purpose of this article is to explore the role that Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA)‐accredited zoos and aquariums either are playing or could play in the conservation...
As an emerging approach to support fast delivery of software features with reliable quality, DevOps attracts more and more practitioners and shows the potential to become one of the mainstream approach for software development and operation. Many universities begin to offer DevOps related courses to the students majored in software engineering and computer science. However, as a critical part of a...
In order to improve the management intelligent level and the level of information sharing for higher law college instructors, and improve the efficiency of management of higher law college counselors work, and promote the sharing of college counselors and educational resources and scheduling information, Higher Law College Counselors work management system is developed and designed. The system adopts...
Aimed at abnormal score from evaluation experts, real data from Shanghai double-blind sampling system of graduate dissertation and thesis between 2013 and 2014 have been in depth analysis and mining. Some basic judgment rules of abnormal score are summed up, and monitoring model for abnormal score is proposed. By the least squares method and the multiple regression models, the equation of monitoring...
Communication skills are an integral part of the development of undergraduate students as emerging professionals in rapidly changing, multi-disciplinary engineering fields. However, many engineering educators and industry employers continue to express concerns about the quality of these skills in engineering graduates. Many universities and institutions have enhanced engineering education curriculum,...
Problem Based Learning approach (PBL) is an instructive constructivist method which promotes, as its main feature, the use of real life problems to initiate and motivate the comprehension of new concepts, stimulating the abilities and actions that are needed for the solutions of such problems. PBL is strongly fundamented in well defined principles. Thus, it is fundamentally important that teachers...
Cyber Defense Exercises have received much attention in recent years, and are increasingly becoming the cornerstone for ensuring readiness in this new domain. Crossed Swords is an exercise directed at training Red Team members for responsive cyber defense. However, prior iterations have revealed the need for automated and transparent real-time feedback systems to help participants improve their techniques...
In this paper, we describe a new teaching approach whose objective is to implement entrepreneurship-based learning. The proposed teaching approach is essentially a project-based approach, but, with two novel key components that give it the entrepreneurship emphasis. First, the main idea is to divide students into groups of four or five members and have each team go through the process of starting-up...
Learning Analytics focuses on improving learning process by studying and analyzing data produced during the process itself. It covers the collection, measurement, analysis, reporting and knowledge discovering on data about students, teachers and institutions. Learning Analytics has been widely developed in Anglo Saxon countries. USA, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia are amongst the main contributors...
Several studies have shown the use of digital games in education and their contributions to the teaching-learning process. However, many of these educational games do not have mechanisms to monitor the learner's performance and/or to reconfigure the game to new situations. This article aims to present a digital game environment for support teaching mathematics, integrated with a management tool that...
Student-centered learning environments, including flipped classrooms, are becoming increasingly common in engineering education. Numerous advantages have been ascribed to these approaches, including that they increase student engagement and achievement. Unfortunately, not all students respond favorably to student-centered courses. To understand why, we are studying how students perceive their experiences...
The Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) of Government of India has so far seen only mixed results with nearly one fourth of the children under the age of 6 years are still undernourished. The budgetary allocation has been increasing over the years to strengthen and close gaps in the program and there is increased pressure on policy makers and program implementers to show the results. We argue...
This paper outlines the effects of educational and casual software applications on young children, and defines a framework for monitoring, assessing, and improving their knowledge and skills. It shows how the use of such applications improves children skills in the main learning domains and increases their familiarity with the world. After analyzing specific abilities developed by different categories...
Powerpoint slides have become one of the essential teaching tools in academic for both offline and online modes. It may play a useful role to facilitate discussion and information exchange. However, in our teaching experience, we find many students utilizing Powerpoint slides beyond their traditional functions. Many students fully rely on the slides as the main learning materials and, in some cases,...
A teaching example is built in Simulink, and then, based on the communication between Matlab and LabVIEW, a teaching virtual platform in LabVIEW is realized. This platform is about a wind power generation system and used mainly for the Renewable Energy Sources course of the undergraduate students of electrical engineering major. Compared with Simulink simulation teaching, the virtual platform adopts...
Through the continuous collection and in-depth analysis of the quality monitoring data of colleges and universities, we combine the efficiency processing of big data and data evaluation, monitor the status of higher education normally, and construct a higher education quality monitoring and evaluation platform based on Spark. This platform is teaching centered with schools as its basis, including...
It discusses the necessity of building college Students' Learning Monitoring and Early Warning System (SLMEWS) as well as points out the importance of parents' participation and assistance considering college students' social environment and background with information acquisition media of digital campus as its method and the school cloud as its technology kernel. It also puts forward a dynamic SLMEWS...
This paper proposes a design to implement Intelligent Examination subsystem in the Internet Plus environment, which uses structure model combining B/S and C/S, JSP technology and SSH frames. Student examination terminal facilitates automatic acquisition and maintenance of exam candidate's face image for automatic authentication of its identity, automatically obtaining examination papers' information,...
Recent advances in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) have stimulated the need for adaptation of new models of teaching and learning in educational institutions. Since the beginning, the use of technology in education has gained a lot of attention and has been applied to many areas in the academic domain. The introduction of ICT has motivated scholars to find out how various ICT tools...
