APPLICATION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION RESOURCES IN DISTANCE LEARNING

Distance Learning a Place for Application of Independence Learner Theory

Introduction: With the arrival of new communication technologies, the process of learning from the teacher to the learner’s pivot with emphasis on the centrality of the learner has an independence movement and in determining the methods of teaching and assessment practices. On this basis the independence of the learner is one of the fundamental concepts of remote education system. The aim ...

The Role of Digital Libraries and Information Centers in E-Learning

Distance Metric Learning with Application to Clustering with Side-Information

Many algorithms rely critically on being given a good metric over their inputs. For instance, data can often be clustered in many “plausible” ways, and if a clustering algorithm such as K-means initially fails to find one that is meaningful to a user, the only recourse may be for the user to manually tweak the metric until sufficiently good clusters are found. For these and other applications r...

Distance Learning Game Application

Distance Learning (DL) has emerged as an innovative teaching method and is becoming very popular in today’s education. This study examines the learning outcomes and benefits of using a simulation game in a DL environment. We found that DL brings a different learning experience to students; however, they do not necessarily regard this method as superior to the traditional face-to-face method. Th...

Digital Distance Relaying

Increasing interest is being shown in the use of microprocessor for protection, switching and data acquisition required in modern high voltage substations. One of the most difficult functions to fulfill is that of transmission line distance protection employing samples of the voltage and current waveform taken from high voltage transducer equipment at the usual relaying point. This paper examin...
