In this paper we describe some of the approaches we have worked with as well as some of the tools we have developed for carrying out mobile user experience research in-the-wild. We outline some of the challenges we faced and the lessons learned based on these experiences and highlight what we see as the key areas to focus on, in terms of carrying out mobile user experience research on a large-s...

the advent of computer has revolutionized a variety of fields including education thus paving the way for educational science to enter a new stage. this effect has exhibited itself well in language learning. the development of computer technology and the resulting language learning software, as a reliable tool in the educational system of developed countries, has attracted the attention of both...

This paper deals with the basic aspects of Honeypots, their use in modern computer networks and their implementation in educational environments. Initially, the implementation of Honeypots solves a common problem of Information Security and Forensics: The dissection of the elements that make up an attack against a computer system. Next, the paper explains the different types and functions of Ho...

the goal of this study was to investigate the effect of using computer conceptual maps­, compared with  usual way of drawing them by pencil and paper­, in increasing learning, recalling and educational progress motivation in geology course among high school students. the study was conducted in semi experimental method in which students of 3 classes were classified in 3 groups. (group 1: common ...

A complete fate map has been produced for the 32-cell stage of Xenopus laevis. Embryos with a regular cleavage pattern were selected and individual blastomeres were injected with the lineage label fluorescein-dextran-amine (FDA). The spatial location of the clones was deduced from three-dimensional (3D) reconstructions of later stages and the volume of each tissue colonized by labelled cells in...

Nurses often lack confidence in carrying out basic infusion rate calculations, particularly those needed to work out drip rates for medical infusion devices. This article describes the design and development of a computer software tool, poster and a pocket card in one trust to help reduce accidental errors when using infusion pumps and gravity infusions.

Three studies that explore the usefulness and effectiveness of computers for training language skills of young children with communication disabilities are reviewed. A study of eight toddlers with Down syndrome compared traditional individual language intervention with computer-based instruction for developing comprehension of vocabulary and early grammatical patterns over a period of three mon...
