Ng, Hien Fuh; Ngeow, Yun Fong – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
Relative quantification is a popular analysis in gene expression studies using quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). However, the calculation steps using the major algorithms for this analysis are rather complicated. In this study, we developed an easy-to-use spreadsheet-based method for relative quantification. The inputs from end-users are the…

Montgomery, Anne E. – Adult Higher Education Alliance, 2017
Plenty of material exists to help with the writing process, but sometimes the writer needs tools to help organize the process. This paper reviews some of the tools needed to organize articles and other references. A discussion of keywords, note taking, and document organization provides examples on the choice use of technology tools to support the…

Barreto, Humberto – Journal of Economic Education, 2015
This article is not the usual Excel pedagogy fare in that it does not provide an application or example taught via a spreadsheet. Instead, it briefly reviews the history of spreadsheets in the economics classroom and explores the current environment, with an emphasis on modern learning theory. The conclusion is not surprising: spreadsheets improve…

Chiner, Esther; Garcia-Vera, Victoria E. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
The purpose of this study was to examine students' computer attitudes and experience, as well as students' perceptions about the use of two specific software applications (Google Drive Spreadsheets and Arquimedes) in the Building Engineering context. The relationships among these variables were also examined. Ninety-two students took part in this…

Ravinder, Handanhal V. – American Journal of Business Education, 2013
A key issue in exponential smoothing is the choice of the values of the smoothing constants used. One approach that is becoming increasingly popular in introductory management science and operations management textbooks is the use of Solver, an Excel-based non-linear optimizer, to identify values of the smoothing constants that minimize a measure…

Pinder, Jonathan P. – Decision Sciences Journal of Innovative Education, 2013
Business students taking business analytics courses that have significant predictive modeling components, such as marketing research, data mining, forecasting, and advanced financial modeling, are introduced to nonlinear regression using application software that is a "black box" to the students. Thus, although correct models are…

Matthews, Miccal T. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2012
In this article an application of conformal mapping to aerofoil theory is studied from a geometric and calculus point of view. The problem is suitable for undergraduate teaching in terms of a project or extended piece of work, and brings together the concepts of geometric mapping, parametric equations, complex numbers and calculus. The Joukowski…

Kyng, Timothy; Tickle, Leonie; Wood, Leigh – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2013
Software may be used in university teaching both to enhance student learning of discipline-content knowledge and skills, and to equip students with capabilities that will be useful in their future careers. Although research has indicated that software may be used as an effective way of engaging students and enhancing learning in certain scenarios,…
