چکیده

We present U-Note, an augmented teaching and learning system leveraging the advantages of paper while letting teachers and pupils benefit from the richness that digital media can bring to a lecture. U-Note provides automatic linking between the notes of the pupils’ notebooks and various events that occurred during the class (such as opening digital documents, changing slides, writing text on an interactive whiteboard...). Pupils can thus explore their notes in conjunction with the digital documents that were presented by the teacher during the lesson. Additionally, they can also listen to what the teacher was saying when a given note was written. Finally, they can add their own comments and documents to their notebooks to extend their lecture notes. We interviewed teachers and deployed questionnaires to identify both teachers and pupils’ habits: most of the teachers use (or would like to use) digital documents in their lectures but have problems in sharing these resources with their pupils. The results of this study also show that paper remains the primary medium used for knowledge keeping, sharing and editing by the pupils. Based on these observations, we designed U-Note, which is built on three modules. U-Teach captures the context of the class: audio recordings, the whiteboard contents, together with the web pages, videos and slideshows displayed during the lesson. U-Study binds pupils’ paper notes (taken with an Anoto digital pen) with the data coming from U-Teach and lets pupils access the class materials at home, through their notebooks. U-Move lets pupils browse lecture materials on their smartphone when they are not in front of a computer.

A note on "Generalized bivariate copulas and their properties"

In 2004, Rodr'{i}guez-Lallena and '{U}beda-Flores have introduced a class of bivariate copulas which generalizes some known families such as the Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern distributions. In 2006, Dolati and '{U}beda-Flores presented multivariate generalizations of this class. Then in 2011, Kim et al. generalized Rodr'{i}guez-Lallena and '{U}beda-Flores' study to any given copula family. But ther...

New Low Cost Printed Antenna CPW-Fed for Global Positioning System, Personal Communication System and Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access Band Applications (TECHNICAL NOTE)

This paper presents a new design of a CPW-Fed multi bands planar antenna. This antenna can be integrated easily with passive and active elements. The proposed antenna is suitable to operate for GPS, PCS and WiMAX bands. Its entire area is 52.3x52.6mm2 and is employed on an FR-4 epoxy substrate and fed by a 50 Ohm coplanar line. The antenna parameters have been analyzed and optimized by using AD...

What do U-Note? An Augmented Note Taking System for the Classroom

We present U-Note, a new system that helps children to study their lessons. It links a paper notebook and digital documents in order to reconstruct the context of the class. This system makes it possible for students to browse the teacher’s documents at the state it was when he wrote the words he is currently reading. The student can also add information he found on internet. We first discuss t...

The K-span of a Riemann Surface by Myron Goldstein

In this note, we shall answer a question first posed by Sario and Oikawa in their monograph Capacity functions [4], and later by Rodin [3 ] in his Bulletin paper. The question is this. Does the class KD of harmonic functions u with finite Dirichlet integral and such that *du has vanishing periods along all dividing cycles consist only of constant functions if and only if the X-span (for m = 0) ...

Higher order Hardy inequalities

This note deals with the inequality (∫ b a |u(x)|w0(x)dx )1/q ≤ C (∫ b a |u(x)|wk(x)dx )1/p , (1) more precisely, with conditions on the parameters p > 1, q > 0 and on the weight functions w0, wk (measurable and positive almost everywhere) which ensure that (1) holds for all functions u from a certain class K with a constant C > 0 independent of u. Here −∞ ≤ a < b ≤ ∞ and k ∈ N and we will cons...
