Laboratory education is very important and plays a vital role in science and engineering courses. The cost needed for the setting up of a good laboratory can be huge and expensive to institutes that are heavily resource constrained. The rapid development of information and communication technologies, on the other hand, has had a remarkable change in the education system. This paper provides a comprehensive...
It is currently available on the Internet a lot of teaching materials and virtual learning environments that can be useful for learning chemistry. These tools support learning from one of two main perspectives: i) communication and ii) information. In this work it´s presented a series of design ideas to support the development of applications that support the independent learning of chemistry from...
There is a trend in Thai education that many students prefer having an extra class. However, private tutors have to pay a fee in a high price to recommendation agencies in order to find students. For this reason, we have designed and developed a system called “FindMyTutor” on the Android operating system for students and tutors for free of charge. This system includes essential functions for recommendation...
We present a general-purpose software framework, which allows different multi-disciplinary communities to take advantage of a distributed computational infrastructure. The ultimate goal is to provide organizations that need to exploit resources with CPU-intensive loose-parallel tasks with a software service capable to offer a user-friendly, standard and highly customizable access to the Grid. The...
With the development of ICT, a new kind of distance education institute-virtual school is coming into being, which has a great effect on the development of education. Researching the development and discussing the conduction and features of virtual schools in America and Canada maybe bring our education an enlightenment.
This paper explores the advantages and characteristics of internet-based chemistry teaching at rural agriculture universities. The specific execution programs, including the arrangement of course contents, teaching methods, enhancement of self-learning capability of the students, and development of an effective evaluation systems, are illustrated. The authors declare that to fulfill the internet-based...
This paper presents the results of the implementation of pre-laboratory questionnaires in different subjects taught in technical degrees. We studied the main variables for the design and application through e-learning platform. This type of questionnaire allows each student assessing his/her knowledge before a practical session. It promotes student interest and thus, better use of resources. The effectiveness...
This paper proposes a simple but powerful approach for obtaining technical term translation pairs in patent domain from Web automatically. First, several technical terms are used as seed queries and submitted to search engineering. Secondly, an extraction algorithm is proposed to extract some key word translation pairs from the returned web pages. Finally, a multi-feature based evaluation method is...
Along with the rapidly development of the information retrieval and web technology, web entity retrieval has become a new popular way for getting specific information, such as looking for a book or a movie. Like document retrieval, generally there are too many results returned for a query, so ranking is still a necessary step during the entity retrieval process. This paper will focus on the ranking...
Scientific collaboration needs efficiently communication within a team. At the same time, instant messaging (IM) is a popular real-time communication technology on the Internet. Whereas, chemists need to exchange information of chemical structure and chemical-reaction formula in time when doing their research work collaboratively. Thus, an instant messaging system named eChemIM is introduced in this...
Pakistan has a population of over 160 million people out which nearly 30% people comprise of young boys and girls who need to select various academic majors after completion of their high school studies. Development of technologies, businesses and other fields leads to in difficulty in decision making for career selection for these youngsters. Present research is focused on evaluating the performance...
We present DiVE into Alcohol, a virtual reality (VR) program that can be used in chemistry education at the high school and college level, both as an immersive experience, or as a web-based program. The program is presented in the context of an engaging topic--the oxidation of alcohol based on genetic differences in metabolism within the liver cell. The user follows alcohol molecules through the body...
E-learning is one of the emerging needs of the information age. Therefore a lot of potential is seen in distance learning development. Virtual environment interface to E-learning systems have recently appeared on the Internet. Using virtual reality environment, the applications appear to be promising to E-learning tasks more nature and interactive. Also using this technology, it is possible to get...

Informatics is the study of the application of information technology. The focus of studies within an Informatics program is on particular problem domain areas, including scientific domains like biology or chemistry, but also nonscientific domains like music, fine arts, or business. In this paper we describe our experience with the development of a capstone course for undergraduate Informatics students...
By combining automatic environment sensing and experimental data collection with broker based messaging middleware, a system has been produced far the real-time monitoring of experiments whilst away from the lab. Changes in the laboratory environment are encapsulated as simple messages, which are published using an MQTT compliant broker. Clients subscribe to the MQTT stream, and perform a data transform...
