Mid-term marvels

A half-time report from an unprecedented audit of the oceans has discovered hordes of unusual creatures and new data on better-known species, forcing scientists to rethink their ideas about the world's marine life. Among the new organisms to be identified are tiny carnivorous sea sponges that engulf passing prey and single-celled animals that protect themselves by building football-like shells....

Short and Mid-Term Wind Power Plants Forecasting With ANN

In recent years, wind energy has a remarkable growth in the world, but one of the important problems of power generated from wind is its uncertainty and corresponding power. For solving this problem, some approaches have been presented. Recently, the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) as a heuristic method has more applications for this propose. In this paper, short-term (1 hour) and mid-term (24...

Mid-term Student Feedback

Mid-semester student feedback is a teaching assessment technique designed to elicit formative feedback from students during the semester, when it can be acted on to improve the course and students’ learning. Gathering student feedback at mid-semester is optimal for an instructor to get the pulse of the course––to find out what students are thinking about the instructor, the course material, and...
