The club environment contains a lot of interaction, mainly visitor to visitor but also between the visitor and the people employed by the club such as bartenders and DJs (disc jockey). There is not much a visitor can do to affect the environment, apart from asking the DJ if he or she would like to play a certain song. The people that attend the club should be able to enhance their own and every...

Undergraduates (n = 132) learned about the human respiratory system and then taught what they by explaining aloud on video. Following a 2 × design, students either generated their own words or visuals paper while aloud, viewed instructor-provided aloud. One week after teaching, completed explanation, drawing, transfer tests. Teaching with provided visualizations resulted in significantly higher...

in this paper, we define and study the notion of the real-valued functions on a frame $l$. we show that $f(l) $, consisting of all frame homomorphisms from the power set of $mathbb{r}$ to a frame $ l$, is an $f$-ring, as a generalization of all functions from a set $x$ into $mathbb r$. also, we show that $f(l) $ is isomorphic to a sub-$f$-ring of $mathcal{r}(l)$, the ring of real-valued continu...

abstract the saturated hydraulic conductivity (ks) is an important physical property of soil. the direct measurement of this property in soils is a difficult and time consuming process. pedotransfer functions (ptfs) provide an alternative by estimating soil parameters from more readily available soil data. the objective of this study is to determine effective factors on soil hydraulic conductiv...

One goal of computer graphics is to create compelling visuals indistinguishable from actual photographs. Ideally, these visuals would be generated in real time. Once these goals are achieved, computer graphics technology could be used to immerse users within compelling interactive environments. Thus, expanding the applications of these methods beyond the mere presentation of information to comm...

Debates on media competency and media literacy are going on now for a few decades. Many concepts have been developed in various disciplines. Along with that, discourses on visual literacy have been intensified, too, although visuals have been used in educational contexts throughout history. But only recently, after almost three thousand years of historiography, turns like iconic turn, pictorial...

This paper 1) provides reasons why graphics should be effective aids to communicate risk; 2) reviews the use of visuals, especially graphical displays, to communicate risk; 3) discusses issues to consider when designing graphs to communicate risk; and 4) provides suggestions for future research. Key articles and materials were obtained from MEDLINE(R) and PsychInfo(R) databases, from reference ...
