A Synchronous Groupware and Some Scenarios as an Example for New Media in Education
نویسندگان
چکیده
The motivation for the usage of new media in education can differ. The University of Duisburg-Essen (UDE) is involved in several projects such as “eCampus”, “Minerva”, “OFFSHORE” and “Bridge”. All of them aim at the development of innovative contributions to university education from various points of view, especially internationalization. Most of these projects form the basis for the usage of new media and communication technologies, especially those using groupware technology in university education. This article describes the efforts which have been made at UDE and the experiences up to now concerning new media and communication technologies, taking a software engineering lab as an example, especially the usage of a synchronous groupware to support software engineering education with spatially distributed student teams.

متن کاملIslanding Detection of Synchronous Machine-Based DGs using Average Frequency Based Index
Identification of intentional and unintentional islanding situations of dispersed generators (DGs) is one of the most important protection concerns in power systems. Considering safety and reliability problems of distribution networks, an exact diagnosis index is required to discriminate the loss of the main network from the existing parallel operation. Hence, this paper introduces a new island...
