How Technology Can Be Integrated Into The Seventh Grade Mathematics Classroom To Ensure A Positive Impact On Student Learning And Engagement
No full textIn recent years, there has been a movement for more technology in classrooms across the country. With this new movement, many teachers and students have been hesitant on where to begin and how to use technology in the classroom. This movement in education led for the author to explore the following research question: How can meaningful technology resources be integrated into the seventh grade mathematics classroom to ensure a positive impact on student learning and engagement? This Capstone records one teacher’s creation of a website designed to offer students and teachers an array of resources in one location for the middle school math classroom, while aligning to the Minnesota State Mathematics Standards
Using and Evaluating Learning Objects for Online Courses in Vocational Education
No full textThe use of learning objects, such as videos, interactive games, and tutorials, has become increasingly popular in online vocational education. Used to reinforce concepts, to allow students to review subject matter, and to help students become more adept at procedural tasks, learning objects can enhance learning in online environments. This chapter presents an overview of learning objects, framed in a study that resulted in an instrument that can be used for student evaluation of learning objects. Also included is a discussion of the future of learning objects in online vocational education.</jats:p

Bilateral Assessment of Functional Tasks for Robot-assisted Therapy Applications
No full textThis article presents a novel evaluation system along with methods to evaluate bilateral coordination of arm function on activities of daily living tasks before and after robot-assisted therapy. An affordable bilateral assessment system (BiAS) consisting of two mini-passive measuring units modeled as three degree of freedom robots is described. The process for evaluating functional tasks using the BiAS is presented and we demonstrate its ability to measure wrist kinematic trajectories. Three metrics, phase difference, movement overlap, and task completion time, are used to evaluate the BiAS system on a bilateral symmetric (bi-drink) and a bilateral asymmetric (bi-pour) functional task. Wrist position and velocity trajectories are evaluated using these metrics to provide insight into temporal and spatial bilateral deficits after stroke. The BiAS system quantified movements of the wrists during functional tasks and detected differences in impaired and unimpaired arm movements. Case studies showed that stroke patients compared to healthy subjects move slower and are less likely to use their arm simultaneously even when the functional task requires simultaneous movement. After robot-assisted therapy, interlimb coordination spatial deficits moved toward normal coordination on functional tasks
Czy wymuszone partnerstwo może stanowić klucz do sukcesu? O relacjach Turcja–UE w dobie kryzysu migracyjnego
No full textThe aim of the article is to show the relations between Turkey and the EU in the era of the migration crisis. The author focuses on the presentation of subsequent stages of cooperation between the above-mentioned parties and presents the process of concluding individual contracts. Despite numerous criticisms, mainly from the European side, cooperation between entities is continued. Thanks to the agreement signed in 2016, Turkey is continuing its efforts to provide unprecedented humanitarian assistance and support to more than 3.5 million refugees from Syria and about 365,000 refugees from other countries. At the moment, the political rank of the Turkey-EU talks has been reduced to the level of European commissioners and Turkish ministers. Turkey, mainly due to its geopolitical situation, now appears as an indispensable partner, which alone can effectively minimize the threats posed by the migration crisis.Celem artykułu jest ukazanie relacji pomiędzy Turcją i UE w dobie kryzysu migracyjnego. Autor skupia się na prezentacji poszczególnych etapów współpracy pomiędzy wyżej wymienionymi stronami oraz przedstawia proces zawierania poszczególnych umów. Pomimo licznych głosów krytyki, kierowanych głównie ze strony europejskiej, współpraca pomiędzy podmiotami jest kontynuowana. Dzięki porozumieniu podpisanemu w 2016 roku, Turcja wciąż podtrzymuje swoje wysiłki na rzecz zapewnienia bezprecedensowej pomocy humanitarnej i wsparcia dla ponad 3,5 mln uchodźców z Syrii oraz około 365 000 uchodźców z innych krajów. Na chwilę obecną ranga polityczna rozmów na linii Turcja–UE została obniżona do poziomu europejskich komisarzy i tureckich ministrów (Chudziak, Strachota, 2016, s. 5). Turcja, głównie dzięki swojemu położeniu geopolitycznemu, jawi się obecnie jako strategiczny partner, który jako jedyny może efektywnie zminimalizować zagrożenia, jakie niesie ze sobą kryzys migracyjny
