Although it is widely believed that information literacy (IL) competencies are useful in helping students perform better in their schoolwork and beyond, limited empirical evidence is available showing the relationship between IL competencies and IL education. While a lot of research has been done worldwide and most of the findings have proven that IL is a much-needed skill by students, little r...

in this article, with the aim of identify the common aspects of vygotsky and frieri in dialogue-based education; the theatrical basis, related concepts, and the type of education is studied in an analytical and interpretive way and their differences and similarities, especially in their educational model is presented and defined. as the result of recognition of basic aspects and explanation of ...

The application of critical pedagogy in educational contexts has received adequate research attention over the last decades. The main focus of this strand of research has, however, been on raising awareness of the educators. Nevertheless, little is known about the consequences of the violation of critical pedagogy principles from EFL teacher trainers’ perspectives. To begin to address this gap ...

One of the important problems of cyber pedagogy is the following: how, knowing the parameters of the student, his initial level of knowledge and the impact of the teacher to predict knowledge of student at subsequent times. Simulation method allows you to create a computer program that simulates the behavior of the "teacher–student"– system and investigate the influence of system parameters on ...

In this paper we present a methodology for creating concept map exercises for students. Concept mapping is a common pedagogical exercise in which students generate a graphical model of some domain. Our method automatically extracts knowledge representations from a textbook and uses them to generate concept maps. The purpose of the study is to generate and evaluate these concept maps according t...

For many non-lawyers (and a good many lawyers), law school conjures up images of large lecture halls packed with students being instructed by an overbearing, authoritarian professor relentlessly posing a series of questions to the hapless students caught in the line of fire. As vividly perfected by the fictitious Professor Kingsfield in The Paper Chase, the pedagogy is commonly known as the “So...

In their article "Intermediality, Rhetoric, and Pedagogy," Kris Rutten and Ronald Soetaert discuss how the notion of intermediality challenges the institutions that traditionally "mediate" culture and they discuss implications for pedagogy. First, they focus on how the museum as an institution is questioned and problematized by describing it as a "medium" that is increasingly influenced by cult...

We present a full implementation of the parareal algorithm—an integration technique to solve di erential equations in parallel— in the Julia programming language for a fully general, rst-order, initial-value problem. Our implementation accepts both coarse and ne integrators as functional arguments. We use Euler’s method and another Runge-Kutta integration technique as the integrators in our exp...
