Dermatoglyphics is an integral part of the biological anthropology related to studies population polymorphism and geographical variability Homo sapiens. V.V. Bunak presented dermatoglyphic methods in chapter XI "Anthropometry" too compact, text needs some technical explanations, which was purpose this work. Materials methods. We have combined comments with a summary main concepts terms accepted...

Background: the inappropriate use of handouts and notes is a common academic problem among students. Students' notes are too brief and incomplete in compare with references; hence they may not cover the required content for the courses. The aim of this paper is to analyze students' attitude toward reading handouts and notes instead of references. Methods: In this analytical and descriptive stud...

We report on MobiDics, a mobile learning platform for professors, lecturers and tutors. In a survey with 100+ participants, we revealed that young, inexperienced teaching personnel at universities rarely use specific didactic methods to plan and structure courses. Such methods play an important role in learning processes since they, for example, activate students and contribute to more profound...

: Maternal parenting behaviors during a mother–infant play interaction were examined in a sample of 160 low-income mothers and their 15-month-old infants. Maternal responsive/didactic, intrusive, and negative behaviors were coded from videotapes and examined in relation to mothers’ age, marital status, stressful life events, and depressive symptoms, and infants’ cognitive scores at 15 and 25 mo...

Abbreviating paths with iterated wild cards is an abstraction mechanism common to Adaptive Programming (AP), eXtensible Markup Language (XML) document processing, and Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP). Recognition of abbreviated paths is used to for navigation in both AP and XML, and to decide upon advice execution in AOP. Finite state automata have been used for efficient recognition of abbrev...

Standard and abbreviated distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) procedures derived using the Grason Stadler Model 60 instrument were compared. The standard and abbreviated procedures were compared at frequencies of 1000, 1250, 1593, 2000, 2531, and 3187 Hz for 48 ears from 28 subjects. The subject pool included individuals with normal hearing and those with sensorineural hearing loss...

The research that we propose in this article is placed within a didactic framework for the analysis of ordinary classroom practices. It seeks to understand and then compare the modalities for productive disciplinary engagement of students in the teaching-learning process in two different institutions in the course of physical education lessons in Tunisia. To this effect, we rely on two theoreti...

Internet-based informatics systems increasingly influence real-life situations. Competencies for Internet applications and services have to be explicitly attained because not observable processes and invisible structures have to be considered. There are examples of successful learning processes for selected parts of the Internet. A systematic analysis of educational requirements and a derived d...

Users often abbreviate long words when using spoken dialogue systems, which results in automatic speech recognition (ASR) errors. We define abbreviated words as sub-words of the original word, and add them into an ASR dictionary. The first problem is that proper nouns cannot be correctly segmented by general morphological analyzers, although long and compounded words need to be segmented in agg...
