Sketch-thinking in the design domain is a complex representational activity, emerging from the reflective conversation with the sketch. A recent line of research on computational support for sound design has been focusing on the exploitation of voice, and especially vocal imitations, as effective representation strategy for the early stage of the design process. A set of introductory exercises ...

ABSTRACT This article aims at looking into the inter-relationship among emotions and language in reflective processes fostered by qualitative research teacher education. My goal is to advance our understanding of this phenomenon with an assemblage conceptual tools such as languaging, emotioning, conversation, reflection orthogonal interactions. Based on Maturana Davilla’s (2009) Matrix Human Ex...

This study explores how student learning via asynchronous, threaded discussion boards may be managed successful. We examine the elements of course scaffolding on that affect student learning and engagement in discussion. We explore the role of the instructor in mediating learning. We base our findings on an analysis of 21 online courses in the IS domain, conducted by multiple instructors over a...

The Reflective Memory/Memory Channel @h&UC) system represents a modular bus-based system architecture that belongs to the class of distrtbuted shared memory systems. The RWMC system is characterized by an update consistenqv mechanism for shared data and egicient block transfers over the bus. This worh has tnw main goals. First, an extensive simulation anat’ysis using the firnch’onal Ru/MC simul...

In this paper, we propose real-time communication middleware which supports data dissemination with proxy extension. To fulfill stringent QoS requirement such as timing constraint, we employ push-based data delivery approach and real-time channel. Furthermore, by making the most of connected clients, we could permit the increased number of clients and extend the scalability. Since it is also de...

During the course of this paper we intend to explore some possibilities that relate to ethnomethodology, conversation analysis, reflexive practice and practitioner based research. We intend to explore the way in which conversation analysis may facilitate some objectives and goals of reflexive practice and practitioner based research within professional practice. In order to fulfil this objectiv...
