This paper presents the dataset collected from student interactions with INQPRO, a computer-based scientific inquiry learning environment. The dataset contains records of 100 students and is divided into two portions. The first portion comprises (1) "raw log data", capturing the student's name, interfaces visited, the interface…

Presents the results of a detailed study of errors in a musical database. Provides an equation for estimating the effect of an overall error-rate on arbitrary analytic measures derived from the database. Examines four methods of error detection: manual proof-reading, double-entry method, programed syntactic checking, and programed heuristics. (GEA)

A Data Element Dictionary/Directory (DED/D) is a software tool that is used to control and manage data elements in a uniform manner. It can serve data base administrators, systems analysts, software designers, and programmers by providing a central repository for information about data resources across organization and application lines. This…

This report documents the development of three major products: (1) a Los Angeles County Dual Independent Map Encoding (DIME) File to which community college district boundaries have been special area coded; (2) a book-like listing of all house number ranges and street names and the college district and census tract they are found in; and (3) a…

This is the second of four reports representing an effort to develop a system of indicators of scientific technical information. This particular report is concerned with the data analyses which led to the system of statistical indicators described in the first report. It includes a discussion of the overall framework upon which the study was based…

In this study the advantages and problems involved in using Generalized Data Management Systems (GDMS) to expand the capabilities of information retrieval (IR) systems are investigated. In particular, the design of a Data Manager-1 (DM-1) based system for the Reliability Analysis Center (RAC) at Griffiss AFB, Rome, New York is studied. A design…

An effort to construct a model of the thermal properties of materials based on theoretical thermo-electromagnetic models, to construct a data base of the dense cultural hospital scene according to Defense Mapping Agency Aerospace Center (DMAAC) specifications, and to design and implement a program to evaluate the tonal model and generate imagery…

This report documents the second-year progress of the Community College Data Base Team in their efforts to build a geographically based data system for use by college researchers and administrators. The primary purpose of the 1973-74 team effort was to expand the 1972-73 data base by adding internally generated district items, aggregated to the…
