Revealing Student Teachers Thinking through Dilemma Analysis

We explore the potential of dilemma analysis as an assessment tool to reveal student teachers thinking and concerns about their practice. For this purpose we analyze the dilemma analyses completed by 22 student teachers enrolled in our science teacher preparation program over a period of four semesters. Student teachers dilemmas fall into two main groups: dilemmas about student performance and ...

Visual routines and attention

The human visual system solves an amazing range of problems in the course of everyday activities. Without conscious effort, the human visual system finds a place on the table to put down a cup, selects the shortest checkout queue in a grocery store, looks for moving vehicles before we cross a road, and checks to see if the stoplight has turned green. Inspired by the human visual system, I have ...

Evolving Visual Routines

Traditional machine vision assumes that the vision system recovers a complete, labeled description of the world [Marr, 1982]. Recently, several researchers have criticized this model and proposed an alternative model which considers visual perception as a distributed collection of task-specific, context-driven visual routines [Aloimonos, 1993, Ullman, 1984]. Some of these researchers have argue...
