Purpose: The speech motor system uses feedforward and feedback control mechanisms that are both reliant on prediction errors. Here, we developed a state-space model to estimate the error sensitivity of the control systems. We examined (a) whether the model accounts for the error sensitivity of the control systems and (b) whether the two systems…

Introduction: As the number of people with visual impairments (that is, those who are blind or have low vision) is continuously increasing, rehabilitation and engineering researchers have identified the need to design sensory-substitution devices that would offer assistance and guidance to these people for performing navigational tasks. Auditory…

Following the integration of an online homework tool -- MyEnglishLab (MEL) -- into their English courseware products, Pearson sought to explore how one of these products, Top Notch, was being implemented with MyEnglishLab and perceptions about the impact it was having on learning. Top Notch is a six-level communicative course that aims to help…
