The explosion of the World Wide Web and the electronic trend of university teaching have transformed the learning style to become more learner-centered, which has popularized the digital delivery of mediated lectures as an alternative or an adjunct to traditional lectures. Despite its potential and popularity, virtual lectures have not been adopted yet in Jordanian universities. This research a...

background: motivational interviewing (m.i.) is an option for modifying an individual’s behavior. it is used as an educational method in recent years. the aim of our study was to indicate whether or not education, using lecture alone and lecture with m.i., would affect the performance of nursing personnel regarding their hand hygiene. if so, which of these two methods were most effective for th...

In the midst of COVID-19 pandemic, universities throughout world are embracing online learning, often depending on synchronous and asynchronous digital communications. this paper, we compare impacts live (synchronous) pre-recorded (asynchronous) lectures student achievement using a randomized experiment. We discovered that reduce lower-ability students’ academic but have no effect higher-abilit...

We describe our investigations in generating textual summaries of physiological time series data to aid medical personnel in monitoring babies in neonatal intensive care units. Our studies suggest that summarization is a communicative task that requires data analysis techniques for determining the content of the summary. We describe a prototype system that summarizes physiological time series.

Frequent pattern mining is an important data mining problem with wide applications. The huge number of discovered frequent patterns pose great challenge for users to explore and understand them. It is desirable to accurately summarizing the set of frequent patterns into a small number of patterns or profiles so that users can easily explore them. In this paper, we employ a probability model to ...

In this paper I describe several techniques for summarizing the motion of foreground objects in video taken by a fixed camera and with a static background. Two of the techniques are image-based, and dependent upon an explicit background segmentation. A third technique fits action-lines to the video sequence, and requires no explicit segmentation. The results of the different techniques are anal...
