Electromagnetic barrier penetration: matlab Simulation
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
A Matlab simulation was developed to help visualise and investigate electromagnetic tunnelling through particular non-dissipative and dissipative barriers within a waveguide. The theory behind the simulation is based on a ...
Solving nonlinear dynamical equations of Fusion systems using rung - kutta 45 and lsode Computer codes
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
In fusion system dynamics, there are most complicated coupled non-linear equations, which to be able to consider the physical dynamics of these systems, they have to be solved . In this paper the applications of computer ...
Changing online paradigms: beyond Information transmission 'lectures' to research-based interactive science laboratories
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
Robust online courses in the sciences must be based on: (1) sound, research–based pedagogy, (2) rich laboratory environments with skills and operational knowledge transferable to the wet ‘lab’, (3) a paradigm that is ...
Graphical representation of data: the effect of the use of dynamical statistics technological tool
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
In response to calls for reform an innovative course which has at its core element a dynamical statistical software package, Fathom, was developed as an alternative approach to traditional introductory statistics in college. ...
Learning to program using Part-complete solutions
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
Learning to write computer programs is not an easy process for many students with students experiencing high levels of cognitive load. This paper discusses the “completion” method of learning to program that requires ...
Enhancing fourth graders’ ability to interpret graphical representations through the use of sensors in the context of phase transformations (melting and freezing)
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
Sensors constitute a powerful tool in physical science as far as the rapid collection and analysis of data is concerned. In addition to the rapid collection of data, sensors are valued for their capability in the simultaneous ...
Can internet based scenarios enhance critical Care nurses clinical decision making skills?
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
Nurses need to be trained to make rapid and accurate clinical decisions in a rapidly changing and complex environment. Unfortunately, a reliance on traditional training methods (lectures, small group sessions, experiential ...
Creating a teacher and software-developer partnership
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
As teachers are the educational experts, if we want to produce software that is both directly relevant to their needs and can be successfully integrated into the classroom, we need to facilitate a strong co-operative working ...
Internet facilities for virtual and hands-on educational experiments
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
Real time computer simulators of the standard educational Physics laboratory works were designed in VRML and Java for distant learning and self-studies of University students. Experimental schemes and software were developed ...
Sensitive systems Incorporating affect recognition into Computer based learning
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
Advances in video and audio feature extraction methodology combined with adaptive processing techniques using pattern analysis models have profound implications for incorporating affect recognition into future tutoring ...
