Methods Yoga practitioners across the US (82 men, 456 women, mean age 44 years) completed standardized questionnaires on the Internet, including full time teachers (N=44) and part time teachers (N=118). Demographics were similar to those of nationally representative samples of yoga practitioners. Dose was calculated as minutes/week of studio, home, and studio + home practice along with studio +...

hyperdiamonds are covalently bonded fullerenes in crystalline forms, more or less related todiamond, and having a significant amount of sp3 carbon atoms. design of severalhypothetical crystal networks was performed by using our original software programscvnet and nano-studio. the topology of the networks is described in terms of the netparameters and several counting polynomials, calculated by ...

Web 2.0 is beyond a jargon describing technological transformation: it refers to new strategies, tools and techniques that encourage and augment informed, creative and social inter(actions). When considered in an educational context, Web 2.0 provides various opportunities for enhanced integration and for improving the learning processes in information-rich collaborative disciplines such as urba...

INTRODUCTION This paper aims to identify the process of aesthetic education in design studios. Design studio is a significant place, where students of interior design and architecture learn the multifaceted nature of design (Bhatia, 2006; Findeli, 2001). Students’ design solutions actually occur in studio, and the essence of the studio is the discussions regarding the various aspects of their s...

We use the Max/MSP framework to create a reliable but flexible approach for managing live performances of music bands. This approach allows an easy and low cost way to apply innovative music interfaces for live performance, without losing the professionalism required on stage. In the approach, every 1-3 players are plugged to a unit consisting of a standard sound-card and laptop. The units are ...

Within the context of an introductory CS1 unit on algorithmic problem-solving, we are exploring the pedagogical value of a novel active learning activity—the “studio experience”—that actively engages learners with algorithm visualization technology. In a studio experience, student pairs are tasked with (a) developing a solution to an algorithm design problem, (b) constructing an accompanying vi...

max 250 words) The development of increasingly realistic experimental stimuli and task environments is important for understanding behavior outside the laboratory. We report a process for generating 3D human model stimuli that combines commonly used graphics software and enables the flexible generation of animated human models while providing parametric control over individualized identity feat...
