The accumulated economic analysis of education suggests that current provision of schooling is very inefficient. Commonly purchased inputs to schools – class size, teacher experience, and teacher education – bear little systematic relationship to student outcomes, implying that conventional input policies are unlikely to improve achievement. At the same time, differences in teacher quality have...

 The tool presented in this work allows the teacher to create objective questions in order to get a formative evaluation having as its main goal to track the development of the student in the learning process. The aim of the tool is to create a dependence among test questions, building a tree of questions where the teacher can verify the “path” followed by the student during the test, getting ...

School leaders’ influence on student achievement is largely indirect. Using systematic review techniques, this paper assesses the impact that leaders have on their students when they focus their improvement efforts on those teacher emotions or dispositions known to have direct effects on teaching and learning in the classroom. Building on an earlier conceptions of how leadership influences stud...

background and purpose: various approaches to learning are suggested & practiced. the traditional medical education were more teacher centered oriented . in this method the students’ involvement in the process of learning is not remarkable, but the new approach to medical education supports the students involvement. this study evaluated the various method of lecturing considering students invol...

Background To engage students, researchers have been integrating clickers in classroom delivery for study. Clickers, also known as ‘personal response systems’[1], ‘student response systems (SRS), audience response systems (ARS), or personal response systems (PRS)’,[2] are a technology that allow students to respond to the teacher in real time and receive instant feedback from the teacher, thus ...

This paper presents the results of a PhD thesis research, with an innovative proposal for the development of a Technical Laboratory Disciplines in Electrical and Computing Engineering Schools. The presented system allows that the Teacher-Student interaction and the Teacher support be improved by using IT and Internet Communication. This proposal is an hybrid solution: part online part presentia...

—This paper presents two different approaches for utilizing virtual environments to enable learning for both human and robotic students. In the first approach, we showcase a 3D interactive environment that allows a human user to learn how to interact with a virtual robot, before interaction with a physical robot. In the second approach, we present a method that utilizes a simulation environment...

The student teaching experience serves as a culmination of the teacher education process. It is a time for individuals preparing for a career in education to apply the theories and methods that they have studied during their teacher preparation program. The student teaching center and the supervising (cooperating) teacher are the most important ingredients in the student teaching experience. Th...

A humanistic computer teaching system is presented in this paper. The core of this system is the affective interaction between teacher and student. Based on theories in Psychology and the theory of Artificial Psychology, the emotion-learning model is developed. Four basic emotions and four types of learning psychology state are defined according to the Basic Emotion Theory, and two-dimensional ...

While depth tends to improve network performances, it also makes gradient-based training more difficult since deeper networks tend to be more non-linear. The recently proposed knowledge distillation approach is aimed at obtaining small and fast-to-execute models, and it has shown that a student network could imitate the soft output of a larger teacher network or ensemble of networks. In this pa...
