This study explicitly considers that education is a multi-input multi-output production process subject to inefficient behaviors that can be identified at student level. Therefore a distance function allows us to calculate different aspects of educational technology. The paper presents an empirical application of this model using Spanish data from the Programme for International Student Assessm...

This paper presents the requirements for the provision of a multilingual educational platform, as these emerge out of the usage and exploitation of digital educational content related to Organic Agriculture (OA) and Agroecology (AE). The results come as an intermediate output of an actual platform implemented in the context of the EU eContentplus program Organic.Edunet, which aims at deploying ...

The study aims to develop a comprehensive set of input and output factors for educational services. In the frame of the study, a set of input, throughput and output factors is presented. These factors were collected in a workshop with lecturers having a long-time experience in teaching, since the authors assume that they have a great amount of implicit knowledge about the productive delivery of...

This paper tries to bridge the gap between engineering and education by introducing a new way of how to use existing and well known design techniques of engineering in order to structure teaching. It may be called the engineering approach to educational modeling. Planning a new course or restructuring an existing one can be understood as a system design task. Where the system is the course with...

This paper presents the output of a discussion group formed at the ITEM 3.7 Working Conference. The main theme of the discussion group was to consider the evolutionary nature of IT in Educational Management.

This report describes an approach to visualizing XML documents and node sets selected by XPath expressions. The system is based on XSLT and Lout and produces publication-quality PostScript output. We also describe educational uses of these visualizations.

Although I'm an instructor at a number of seminars and workshops each year, the by Bill Whitlock recent Syn-Aud-Con JENSEN TRANSFORMERS Grounding and Shielding Wor...
