Successfully completing an engineering degree often requires at least four or five years of intense study by students, and many these students start their programs with a limited sense what engineer is does. During journey, some gravitate towards blend practical application theoretical knowledge principles; some, for diverse reasons, may be unable to invest the time required degree. For technol...

The purpose of this research study was to identify the multimedia competencies of an educational technologist by creating a valid and reliable survey instrument to administer to educational technology professionals. The educational technology multimedia competency survey developed through this research is based on a conceptual framework that emphasizes the current definition of the field. Follo...

OBJECTIVE After reading Part III of this series of nuclear cardiology articles, the technologist should be able to: (a) compare and contrast radiopharmaceuticals used for myocardial perfusion imaging; (b) describe imaging protocols used for detecting coronary artery disease; and (c) describe imaging patterns seen following reconstruction of myocardial images.

This is the fourth and final article in the nuclear cardiology series. After reading and studying this article, the nuclear medicine technologist will be able to: m compare and contrast radio nuclide firstpass and gated equilibrium ventricular function studies including parameters measured, instrumentation, computer methods, and procedural details, and (2) discuss basic normal and abnormal resu...

There are three parts to this talk – related in rather tangential ways. First, I will give a recap of an argument developed in a couple of earlier talks – at IIiX in 2008 and at the SIGIR evaluation workshop in 2009. The gist of the argument is about thinking about IR as a science, and the consequences Appears in the Proceedings of The 2nd International Workshop on Contextual Information Access...

Resumo. Com a rápida evolução dos sistemas computacionais, simulações numéricas baseadas em modelagem computacional têm alcançado soluções cada vez mais realistas. Ainda assim, o processo de simulação é complexo, exigindo grande capacidade computacional e produzindo muitos arquivos auxiliares com os resultados das simulações. Uma grande quantidade de arquivos, como os produzidos durante o proce...

Introduction Educational technology is an essentially 'positive project.' Most people working in this area are driven by an underlying belief that digital technologies are—in some way—capable of improving education. This mindset is evident, for example, in the recent tendency to refer to 'technology-enhanced learning' or before this to 'computer-assisted learning'—descriptions that both leave l...
