Introduction: We present the case of a 23-year-old female with bilateral ectopic breast tissue of the vulva, the repair of which necessitated a novel labiaplasty technique. Labiaplasty is becoming an increasingly frequent cosmetic procedure, and the popularity of brief didactic labiaplasty courses has risen in response to consumer demand. There is a paucity of detailed anatomic description of f...

In this work, the authors analyze the video game genres’ features and investigate potential mappings to specific didactic approaches in the context of Physics education. To guide the analysis, the authors briefly review the main didactic approaches for Physics and identify qualities that can be projected into game features. Based on the characteristics of the didactic approaches each video game...

A fundamental understanding of anatomy is critical for students on many health science courses. It has been suggested that a problem-based approach to learning anatomy may result in deficits in foundation knowledge. The aim of this review is to compare traditional didactic methods with problem-based learning methods for obtaining anatomy knowledge. A Medline search was completed and studies nee...

Five years of field practice in developing and delivering Mechatronics courses in the context of a Control education curriculum, have shaped the didactic approaches in place and delivered a number concrete results from hands-on experience. The paper reports on some of the main outcomes of this undertaking, presented within an integrating framework that brings together curriculum content, didact...

In this paper we propose a complete architecture of an automatic computer based educational system which exploits tools and methodologies taken from various Artificial Intelligence areas. We use a smart description of knowledge (concerning both the didactic domain knowledge and the student model) and inference mechanisms to achieve an efficient and reliable planning of the student course. Final...

In the last years different methodologies have been proposed to systematize the Web development processes. Some of them are supported by CASE tools that help the user in all or in part of the phases of the application development. A number of these tools are used with didactic aims, for teaching the development process of Web applications. Nevertheless, to our knowledge, none of the currently a...

This paper presents an ontology model used for specifying a knowledge domain in the teaching/learning process and a proper methodology for the personalization of the didactic/training experience of single students basing on their didactic objectives and domains, their acquired knowledge and learning preferences. In our vision, it is important to preserve a specific ontology used in the definiti...

The article shows didactic experiments related to chemical properties which could be easily adapted to any educational level, from primary to high school. Moreover, through of these experiments, teachers could introduce diverse relevant concepts which are normally included in the curriculum of chemistry subject depend on the educational level. Furthermore, each of these didactic experiments is ...

Early education is a key element for the future success of students in the education system. This work analyzes the feasibility of using augmented reality contents with preschool students (four and five years old) as a tool for improving their learning process. A quasi experimental design based on a nonequivalent groups posttest-only design was used. A didactic unit has been developed around th...
