Stephens, A. Lynn – ProQuest LLC, 2012
The purpose of this study is to investigate student interactions with simulations, and teacher support of those interactions, within naturalistic high school physics classroom settings. This study focuses on data from two lesson sequences that were conducted in several physics classrooms. The lesson sequences were conducted in a whole class…

Mayne, Hope Antoinette – ProQuest LLC, 2012
The study explored teaching and teacher education in the postcolonial context, Jamaica, based on arguments that Jamaica's education system and teacher training is constructed on its colonial past and the heavy reliance on knowledge from the West. It provided a rich description of the shared teaching experiences of teacher educators in Jamaica,…

Mesa, Vilma – Adults Learning Mathematics, 2010
This paper presents results of a qualitative study describing classroom participation in pre-college mathematics classes taught by seven successful community college faculty members. The analysis reveals high levels of student participation coupled with low complexity, which can result in detrimental opportunities for students to learn…

Yang, Fang – International Education Studies, 2008
The main focus of research papers on listening teaching published in recent years is the theoretical meanings of decoding on the training of listening comprehension ability. Although in many research papers the bottom-up approach and top-down approach, information processing mode theory, are applied to illustrate decoding and to emphasize the…

Inamullah, Hafiz Muhammad; Ud din, M. Naseer; Hussain, Ishtiaq – Contemporary Issues in Education Research, 2008
The main objective of the proposed study was to explore Teacher--Student verbal interaction patterns at tertiary level education in the North West Frontier Province of Pakistan using Flanders' Interaction Analysis system. This study was significant because its findings and conclusions may stimulate teachers to improve their teaching behaviour in…

Deacon, S. Helene – Developmental Science, 2008
All developmental research needs to carefully consider how children's knowledge is measured. The study of children's knowledge of spelling conventions, or the ways in which the English orthography encodes the roots and affixes and the sounds in words, is no exception. This experiment examined the extent of 7- to 9-year-old children's knowledge of…

Sibley, Daragh E.; Kello, Christopher T.; Plaut, David C.; Elman, Jeffrey L. – Cognitive Science, 2008
The forms of words as they appear in text and speech are central to theories and models of lexical processing. Nonetheless, current methods for simulating their learning and representation fail to approach the scale and heterogeneity of real wordform lexicons. A connectionist architecture termed the "sequence encoder" is used to learn…

Kaur, Manmohan – PRIMUS, 2008
In order to get undergraduates interested in mathematics, it is necessary to motivate them, give them good reasons to spend time on a subject that requires hard work, and, if possible, involve them in undergraduate research. This article discusses how cryptography can be used for all these purposes. In particular, a special topics course on…

Karelaia, Natalia; Hogarth, Robin M. – Psychological Bulletin, 2008
The mathematical representation of E. Brunswik's (1952) lens model has been used extensively to study human judgment and provides a unique opportunity to conduct a meta-analysis of studies that covers roughly 5 decades. Specifically, the authors analyzed statistics of the "lens model equation" (L. R. Tucker, 1964) associated with 249 different…

Lissack, Michael R. – Performance Improvement Quarterly, 2007
The very notion of productivity improvement involves measurement against a context. The success of computers and other quantitative approaches during the past half century has led to an ideational context wherein transmitters of information often assume that the content of their message is like code--ascertainable to the recipient by means of a…

Vainio, Lari; Tucker, Mike; Ellis, Rob – Brain and Cognition, 2007
The coupling of hand grasping stimuli and the subsequent grasp execution was explored in normal participants. Participants were asked to respond with their right- or left-hand to the accuracy of an observed (dynamic) grasp while they were holding precision or power grasp response devices in their hands (e.g., precision device/right-hand; power…

Puri, Dipali – ProQuest LLC, 2009
This study examines the contribution to and impact of formal teacher training education programs on the personal and professional development of pre-service teachers' moral literacy. This study specifically investigates the development of pre-service teacher identity formation from the perspective of the candidates as a process of becoming.…

Tan, Lin – ProQuest LLC, 2009
Commenting source code has long been a common practice in software development. This thesis, consisting of three pieces of work, made novel use of the code comments written in natural language to improve software reliability. Our solution combines Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning, Statistics, and Program Analysis techniques to…

Moran, Seana – High Ability Studies, 2009
Purpose is an internal compass that integrates engagement in activities that affect others, self-awareness of one's reasons, and the intention to continue these activities. We argue that purpose represents giftedness in intrapersonal intelligence, which processes information related to self, identity, self-regulation, and one's place in the world.…
