abstract introduction: critical thinking skills as thinking and judging self-regulation are purposeful and result in solving problems and making appropriate decisions. therefore, the importance of this subject and its role in the nursing profession and the clinical decision, this study was done to compare critical thinking skills of nursing students in continuous licentiate and bachelor- licent...

introduction. today continuous medical education is under consideration for graduated medical students as a necessity in today's world and has had its importance about one decade in our country (iran) . methods. recognition of opinions in various occupational actions of post graduated persons is very important in attention for reevaluation the program of continuous teaching in post graduat...

This paper presents a way of possible implementation of teaching process based on interdisciplinary correlation. Interdisciplinary relationship between biology (bird migration) and geography (the basic features of countries through which white storks travel to their wintering grounds in Africa) is suggested in this paper. Such interdisciplinary approach should make the teaching process effectiv...

In contrast to specialized video servers, advanced multimedia applications for tele-shopping, tele-teaching and news-on-demand exhibit a mixed workload with massive access to conventional, “discrete” data such as text documents, images and indexes as well as requests for “continuous data” such as video. This paper briefly describes the prototype of a multimedia information server that stores di...

Teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm is proposed in recent years that simulates the teaching-learning phenomenon of a classroom to effectively solve global optimization of multidimensional, linear, and nonlinear problems over continuous spaces. In this paper, an improved teaching-learning-based optimization algorithm is presented, which is called nonlinear inertia weighted teac...

Despite the growing body of research studies and projects related to English language teaching (ELT) for the average learner, there is still a great shortage of research addressing the foreign language learning needs of the visually impaired people. Therefore, this paper has the main objective to introduce an innovative method of teaching English to visually impaired learners by means of the ta...

As a way of reinforcing classroom-based lessons, especially for continuous evaluation, the authors experimented with remote conferences and tutoring. These seminars were directed at three different groups of students: those who are struggling with the subject, those who were unable to attend all the lessons, and those seeking deeper insight. The authors experimented with different platforms for...

We present an approach for motion primitive learning and refinement for a humanoid robot. The proposed teaching method starts with observational learning and applies iterative kinesthetic motion refinement. Observational learning is realized by a marker control approach. Kinesthetic teaching is supported by introducing the motion refinement tube in order to avoid to disturb other joints acciden...

The dominating trend in most educational programs today is converting traditional classroom teaching to variants of Problem or Project Based Learning (PBL) methods. In most programs the general experience is increased motivation among students as well as teachers. However, most programs do at the same time experience problems regarding productivity in terms of the applied teaching resources. Co...
