Pedagogical Design as a Necessary Condition for an Effective Distance Course

A Necessary Condition for Weyl-Heisenberg Frames

Two Pedagogical Patterns for Course Design

This paper contains two recently discovered pedagogical patterns. The first, Student Tasks First, is a candidate for inclusion in the Patterns for Active Learning and the second, Differential Grading, is a candidate for inclusion in Feedback Patterns. Both involve course design. Student Tasks First tells how to begin the course design process and Differential Grading gives advice about how to d...

A necessary condition for multiple objective fractional programming

In this paper, we establish a proof for  a  necessary condition for  multiple objective fractional programming. In order to derive the set of necessary conditions, we employ an equivalent parametric problem. Also, we  present the related semi parametric model.

Pedagogical Design of an eTandem Chinese-French Writing Course

Based on previous research conducted concerning eTandem or telecollaboration Foreign Language education, especially a detailed analysis of the “failed” experiences of related courses, an original pedagogical design of an eTandem course is proposed. This smallscale pilot design-based research project involved 6 students from two very different languages and cultures: Chinese/China and French/Swi...

An efficient necessary condition for compatibility

Composing services makes sense only if they are compatible, i.e. composition does not lead to problems such as livelocks or deadlocks. In general, compatibility can be checked using state space explorations on any kind of formal models of services. Petri nets, one of the formal models in use, offer a rich theory for reasoning without exploring a state space. Among the techniques is the so-calle...
