<bold>Introduction:</bold> Stereotypes about generational cohorts have been spread widely among current literature; this study challenges those stereotypes and provides a simple method for managers to learn how to effectively communicate with, motivate, and retain employees, no matter what cohort they belong to. <bold> Research questions:</bold> (1) Do people in a particular...
A computational tool for overcurrent protection coordination in electric power distribution systems, with exclusively radial characteristics is developed in this paper. The tool is called Visual Protection System for Assisted Verification (VPSfAV). It is designed to provide students with a simple and visual program capable of verifying protection scheme projects, and to encourage students to develop...
English language has been considered as the global language and it has become the most important language for all second language learners around the world. Therefore, there are several problems occur as the second language learners, especially Thai students, start studying English when they were young but they are not influenced in using English language. Two main problems are that they cannot remember...
Team-based learning (TBL) is a form of student-centered active learning which will help to develop various professional skills, problem solving, interpersonal team skills, and self-directed independent learning. The success of TBL approach depends on its design comprising Team formation, Project identification and distribution, monitoring the progress, maintaining open discussion in every phase and...
Enrolments in North American undergraduate computer science have been booming in recent years, and many CS departments have been struggling to meet student demand. We surveyed 78 CS professors, instructors, staff, and administrators to see how the enrolment boom has been affecting their practice; and to see how departments are responding in terms of policy. We asked participants to tell us what factors...
In this study, an educational decision supporting system regarding the issue of extending the length of Chinese national compulsory education policy is presented. In this system, the compulsory education funds are analyzed and calculated using the official Chinese statistical data. Integrated with the cloud computing technology, the system can forecast the school-age population and educational funds...
As a forerunner of the principles and the canons of the mechanical didactics, we analyze the whole system of educational norms inherent in the technical domain. Through the force/power of the written word we always try to rebuild worlds and mirrors of the surrounding reality. The world is invested with an omnipotent force. It can create theories and visions which may change the traditional optics...
Collaborative and inquiry learning in the Virtual Learning Community is a new kind of online learning. The learners construct their own knowledge by interactive learning in the community. Some log records and related learners' learning behavior information is generated in the experimental platform of the virtual learning community. Statistical tools of SPSS and Excel are used to explore the learning...
In this paper, the solution of limit problems, which is an important subject of high school and university mathematics is presented by using JavaCC code generation tool and symbolic computation methods. Although JavaCC is generally used for generating programming language interpreters, in a similar way it can also be used in the evaluation of mathematical expressions. In this work, first the general...
Being “digital natives”, contemporary students are already enabled to use almost any kind of technology in the classroom. Due to that fact, teachers should focus on choosing the right tools to help them develop their competences — basic skills, knowledge and attitudes necessary for personal fulfilment and employability in a knowledge society. Critical thinking, creativity, initiative and problem solving...
It is common for medical oral English classroom to be teacher-centered instruction. But the weakest point of this method is that the students lose their autonomy in this learning environment and feel difficult to stimulate their interest in oral English learning. A new approach to oral English classroom is therefore required. Recently, a growing number of scholars home have focus their attention on...
In concept of contemporary space design education, 'artistic concept' and its education thought are gradually paid attention and produce a certain degree of influence. Using means of digital media, the eastern and western designers reveal their different interpretations of 'artistic concept space' in the work. With today's rapid development of new media technology, new teaching means also emerge in...
New knowledge evaluation should be based on a gain from plan refinement with taking into account new information connected with such new knowledge - value of perfect information (VPI). Therefore, knowledge discovery (KD) using text mining (TM) is an ontology learning (OL) where ontology structure provides planning means of expression.
This research contends that the use of Interactive Media Apps with Talk; i.e. chat, whatsapp, comments, FB, Tweet etc. approach in or out of the classroom is developing learners' psychological and cognitive advancement. The Talk means the social undertaking learning style - a socio-cultural environment of Talk and learning that can be developed into activity learning. The activities in learning are...
This paper first analyzes the necessity of the reform and innovation of art education in China. Then it analyzes the problems of art education reform in our country by using the game theory and evolutionary game theory, and obtains the optimal strategy for the government and relevant departments. Finally, through AHP analysis, we find out the difficulties in the process of art education reform in...
The Examination System Based on the Word-VBA is developed based on Word software platform and uses the VBA programming language embedded in Word platform. Users can easily enter the examination system and complete test. The system can automatically judge right and wrong. In the system, it is more convenient for teachers to teach and assess the students. And it is also can save teachers' time and improve...
TRIZ solves difficult problems by finding contradictions in the problem itself. In TRIZ, a technical contradiction occurs when one function of a system is enhanced, the other function is deteriorated at the same time, and vice versa. On the other hand, a physical contradiction appears when two opposite properties are required from the same part of a system. Among TRIZ components, the ARIZ, algorithm...
Teaching quality value is the key point in valuing teaching quality in universities. This paper introduces the model design and evaluation index, web design and work flow, etc, and it is combined with Teaching Evaluation System (TES) of the Yuxi Normal University. It can remedy the defects in traditional teaching evaluation. Now the TES has been adopted in practice and the results show that it can...
The aim of this study is to prove that non-business organizations (among them the universities) — increasingly often facing the effects of lack of sources and operating in fierce competition — need to use such marketing systems and IT telecommunication technologies which are applied by profit-oriented sectors. Changes and processes in the field of information technology and telecommunications are...
Computational and data intensive processes are increasingly driving collaborative research in science and technology. Large amounts of data are being generated in experiments or simulations and require real-time, or near real-time, analysis and visualisation. The results of these evaluations need to be validated and then published quickly and openly in order to facilitate the overall progress of research...
