متن کاملConstructive use of authoritative sources in science meaning making
The role of authoritative sources of information in a constructivist learning environment has always been ambiguous, especially in science learning where there is a bountiful of knowledge readily available in various sources. Taking a social semiotics perspective in this study, we take the view that authoritative sources are inscriptions of cultural artifacts and science learning involves meani...
متن کاملMetaphor, Meaning, Computers and Consciousness
This paper seeks to situate the computational modelling of metaphor within the context of questions about the relationship between the meaning and use of language. The results of this pragmatic assessment are used as the theoretical basis for a proposed computational implementation that seeks metaphor in the geometry of a vector space model of distributional semantics. This statistical approach...
متن کاملReMagicMirror: Action Learning Using Human Reenactment with the Mirror Metaphor
We propose ReMagicMirror, a system to help people learn actions (e.g., martial arts, dances). We first capture the motions of a teacher performing the action to learn, using two RGB-D cameras. Next, we fit a parametric human body model to the depth data and texture it using the color data, reconstructing the teacher’s motion and appearance. The learner is then shown the ReMagicMirror system, wh...
