City University of Hong Kong has initiated a studio approach to teaching, starting with modules in introductory science and engineering. Studio teaching replaces the traditional large-group lecture, small-group tutorial and separate laboratory work with an integrated approach. It utilises computer-based teaching materials that emphasise multimedia and interactive learning. This paper describes ...

This paper reflects on Lancaster University’s software design studio, an approach for teaching software engineering that favours practical experimentation over traditional lectures. The studio has been running for two years at Lancaster. In the paper, we reflect on how students have used modeling as part of the studio experience. Our findings show that, given the freedom, students make heavy us...

In the Fall of 96 the new course in Dynamic Systems has been offered in an interactive studio environment using multimedia computer software and a variety of other interactive activities. The course results were assessed and the students' progress and scores were compared with the regular, lecture-based sections of the course. The students for the studio section were selected at random and did ...

1 d With the recognition that there are inherent occupational and environmental hazards in the visual arts comes the challenge of finding suitable ways to educate future artists, provide for regulatory compliance and help reduce the potential for accidents and injuries in the studio. Owing to the diversity of activities, products and processes used in the visual arts, meeting this challenge is ...

The broadcast studios of today rely on expensive and proprietary communication means in order to network the large number of studio devices. Introducing an IP-based network in the studio environment is becoming an increasingly attractive solution, especially by using IP QoS solutions that are immediately available. In this paper, based on the requirements of a real broadcast studio we propose a...

This paper outlines the architecture of a WSMO Studio, that aims at developing formal specification according to the WSMO Meta Model. Developing formal specification according to a specific formalism is not an easy task. As soon as the descriptions get numerous, large and different authors are involved manual editing without tool support does not scale anymore. In the field of ontology editors ...
