In this paper, we describe a prototype of a collaborative industrial teletraining system, based on distributed augmented reality. Augmented reality typically interfaced by a wearable computer is a natural method to present computer-based tools by merging graphics with a view of the real world. Distribution enables users on remote sites to collaborate on the training tasks by sharing the view of...

UNLABELLED In this study, we compared two different training simulators (the computer screen-based simulator versus the full-scale simulator) with respect to training effectiveness in anesthesia residents. Participants were evaluated in the management of a simulated preprogrammed scenario of anaphylactic shock using two variables: treatment score and diagnosis time. Our results showed that simu...

Computer Assisted Pronunciation Training systems have become popular tools to train on second languages. Many second language learners prefer to train on pronunciation in a stress free environment with no other listeners. There exists no such tool for training on pronunciation of the Norwegian language. Pronunciation exercises in training systems should be directed at important properties in th...

Economic pressures typically necessitate adoption of training approaches and programs that produce competent performance in limited time. These approaches often lead to differences between the level of performance of a newly trained pilot, a ‘trained’ novice, and an expert pilot. This paper describes two computer-based training systems, the VNAV Tutor and the Case-Based Mode Management Tutor, d...

the goal of this study was to investigate the effect of using computer conceptual maps­, compared with  usual way of drawing them by pencil and paper­, in increasing learning, recalling and educational progress motivation in geology course among high school students. the study was conducted in semi experimental method in which students of 3 classes were classified in 3 groups. (group 1: common ...

Web Based Training Systems are the result of a number of developments in different disciplines of computer science in recent years. These developments include Computer Aided Instruction, Hypertext and Hypermedia, and the World Wide Web. This thesis describes these developments and how they are brought together in Web Based Training Systems. It gives an overview over existing Web Based Training ...

the purpose of this study was to determine computer and internet use in agricultural extension by extension workers (ews). this study used a descriptive-correlational design.population for the study consisted of all extension workers (n= 320) in isfahan province, iran. a stratified sampling technique and census was used to select ews (n = 200). overall, findings indicate that ews have access to...
