Contribution: A novel undergraduate course design at the intersection of software engineering (SE) and machine learning (ML) based on industry-reported challenges. Background: ML professionals report that building ML systems is different enough that we need new knowledge about how to infuse ML into software production. For instance, various…

Many teachers report using behavioral management charts in their classrooms as a means of managing student behaviors, but little is known about exactly what behaviors teachers are charting, or specifically how. Misunderstanding over how real-world teachers maintain behavioral charts may cause miscommunication between the teacher and the school…

The methodology used in this study was action-research and the considered activity is been applied successfully for at least five years to undergraduate and to master classes for Industrial Engineering students in Brazil. It showed a significant result in both cases, providing the basis for the deepening in the subject in further lessons.…

This study aims to explore the meaning of the concept of creativity from the perspective of student teachers pursuing a one year teacher training course following their first degree. Seventeen student teachers following a specialist music teaching route in secondary education were selected as the sample for this study to offer their understanding…

This paper presents an interesting teaching experiment carried out at XXX University. The author offered a new course in computational/analytical vehicle dynamics to senior undergraduate students, graduate students and practicing engineers. The objective of the course was to present vehicle dynamics theory with practical applications using…

The seven Favorite Assignments featured in this article were originally presented at the 2010 ABC Annual Convention, Chicago, Illinois. The reader can consider a variety of learning objectives from team building to persuasion, application of electronic media to face-to-face communication, and much more. Some Favorite Assignments take a full…

This work introduces the concept of an Object-Oriented Learning Object (OOLO) that is developed in a manner similar to the one that software objects are developed through Object-Oriented Software Engineering (OO SWE) techniques. In order to make the application of the OOLO feasible and efficient, an OOLO model needs to be developed based on…

This software is prepared within a project by pre-service teachers for K-8 students in Turkey in order to teach the subject "How do we perceive our environment" found in the scope of science in a more visual and concrete manner. The software is designed in a way that it will cover all the behavioral objectives of the subject in question…

These materials for a five-unit course were developed to introduce secondary and postsecondary students to the telecommunications process and its impact on society. Units cover the following topics: orientation to telecommunications; telecommunications hardware; telecommunications software; methods of transmission; and applications. The first…

Examines a variety of computer software uses and possible effects they can have on social studies instruction, using programs as mediating devices and tools. Concludes that the computer can assist implementation of essential objectives in the social studies curriculum. (TRS)

This document contains two units for an advanced course in computer numerical control (CNC) for computer-aided manufacturing. It is intended to familiarize students with the principles and techniques necessary to create proper CNC programs using computer software. Each unit consists of an introduction, instructional objectives, learning materials,…

This document contains five units for a course in computer numerical control (CNC) for computer-aided manufacturing. It is intended to familiarize students with the principles and techniques necessary to create proper CNC programs manually. Each unit consists of an introduction, instructional objectives, learning materials, learning activities,…

Presents two lesson plans for use when introducing computerized spreadsheet programs to high school students and discusses behavioral objectives, necessary equipment, teacher preparation, and learning activities for each lesson. Student handouts for use with the lessons are included. (MBR)

Describes a computer simulation providing population change profiles at 5-year intervals for 100 years, projecting natural rate of increase and total population, per capita gross national product, energy consumption, age-specific fertility rates, and survival ratios. Data sources for the simulation, sample printed output, and learning activities…

Describes the interactive computer Project BARN (developed by University of Wisconsin Center for Health Systems Research and Analysis) that provides health information to adolescents practicing high-risk behaviors in sensitive areas of human sexuality, drugs, and cigarette smoking. Poses the question that such interaction could be a compromise…
