Failure cases are very important for failure analysis. So how to deduce the failure mode of a new failure case based on existed failure cases will be discussed in this file. Firstly, according to the collection of large accident case, summarized how to deduce the failure features and failure information of each failure modes may have. Then identify the possibilities of the new failure case belong...
Gardner's multiple intelligence theory provides a new thought for the colleges' cultivation of talents by its rich educational content. The multiple intelligence theory enlightens us that the intelligence structure of the creative talents is an integrated system where various intelligence essential factors are realigned, maintaining close ties with each other and make the mode of thinking diversified...
Metaphor as part of the cognitive linguistic theory has penetrated into different fields and different styles of discourses. It can be found in almost all kinds of styles of writing discoursed. By studying the developing stages of metaphor, especially by analyzing different kinds of usage of the conceptual metaphor in cognitive linguistics, this paper finds that conceptual metaphor in cognitive linguistics...
Technology mediated support is very crucial for the lifelong education students in the National Open University of Nigeria. This paper is therefore focused on giving account of the concept of lifelong education in this university and how technology is being used to transmit knowledge, reduce distance between learners and the facilitators, support the learners academically and psychologically and ensure...
Parametric studies have been carried out for the quartic-polynomial regression problem demonstrated in the Genetic Programming (GP) v3 toolbox of Matlab. Many classification schemes and modeling issues are polynomial based. Every possible combination originating from all available options between the two genetic parameters namely ?elitism? and ?sampling? has been analyzed while keeping all other parameters...
English proficiency is playing an important role in nearly every aspect of life: further education, job-huntng and career development. Lexical competence is regarded as one of the key factors to English learning. With traditional teaching method, students focus mostly on memorization of individual words and usage, which turn out to be boring and ineffective. The corpus-based data driven learning (DDL)...
Video has become an important element in e-learning. Comparing with text and picture, video is more difficult and important in navigation design because learners know about its real meaning only through playing linearly. The authors consider that the navigation system of instructional video can be divided into two categories: outer navigation and inner navigation. Based on two kinds of Inner navigation...
In today's education scenario, educators intentionally and unintentionally use stories as part of their teaching tool to increase students' understanding. While storytelling is widely recognized tool in classroom teaching, its implementation and acceptance in higher education institution in Malaysia is still unclear. This paper reports a case study that explores the perception of educators in the...
This paper is to elaborate on the factors that influence the learners' language acquisition in multimedia environment. It first describes a course-support hypermedia language- learning environment based on computer-assisted language learning (CALL) system. And then it does some research to identify positive and negative factors influencing the effectiveness of CALL system. The factors considered in...
Assessing leaner's answers is very time consuming for educators and limits them to be involved in other activities. In many cases, exam papers comprise of questions that require learners to write at least one or two sentences toe express their understanding. However, there are not many computer-based assessment tools due to limitations in computerized marking technology. Our research attempts to address...
Cognitive stimulation (CS) is a non-pharmacological intervention to treat individuals with mild to moderate dementia. CS aims to improve and maintain overall cognitive functions through activities in sessions of active stimulation. Results of an empirical study and an observational study of CS sessions show that (1) the interaction mechanisms to perform assisted CS activities can leverage the benefits...
The forecast system of water atomized alloy powder's quality is an incomplete information system because of its incomplete original data. In view of the incomplete system, based on the analysis of variable rough set and set pair analysis, a new kind of generalized rough set based on set pair situation tolerance relation was proposed in this paper, and was used in the system modeling. By regulating...
Recently, more and more game designers begin to develop games for a wide range player group to meet the increasing competition. The attention female players attracted to game designers is growing day by day. This essay discusses the characteristic of female-oriented games from the aspect of instinct, thinking mode and so on, and proposes some principles of the interaction design for the female-oriented...
In this paper, we present the process of modeling for the virtual tobacco growth, which is the abstract and summarize of our group previous work. Then we discuss the three key parts of the modeling: geometrical structural model, topological structural model and ecophysiological rules model. Especially for the topological structural model, we introduce quanta theory to obtain more precise topological...
This paper describes our goal of creating a set of narrated dynamically worked-out problems for the electric circuits students using a Tablet PC. The examples are intended to improve problem-solving skills by enhancing understanding of the key concepts and the way that they should be utilized in solving circuits' problems. Improvement in understanding will be measured through carefully aligned course...
Preparation process of computer instructional program (KIP) differs from classic programming. In some classic computer programs, description appears to be first. Despite importance of the description in KIP, it is supposed to be useless when it is separate. Instead, easiness in usage of this program possibly appears to be more important compared to other programs in the KIP. Since above mentioned...
We explore which engineering disciplines are most effective at attracting undergraduates from various race and gender groups at matriculation and graduation. Women and men choose different disciplines within engineering at matriculation, Industrial Engineering is notable for attracting women and men, and the largest disciplines, Electrical and Mechanical, have the largest enrollment gender gap.
ECE 110 is a required course for freshmen majoring in electrical engineering or computer engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign. ECE 110 students may choose to attend optional supervised study sessions, which implement peer-led team learning workshops. In the sessions, students work on difficult problems from previous semesters' exams under the supervision of a team leader...
Object-oriented programming is difficult for novice not only for the abstract concepts but also for the construction application using object-oriented knowledge. As a result, some students might lose confidence and interests bit by bit just in a few weeks' study. To avoiding this, we implement a learning cycle mode program in object-oriented programming course to activate novice's learning and motivate...
