As e-Learning environments evolve, learners have become increasingly demanding on personalised learning which allows them to build their own knowledge pathway. This significant change in learning requirements imposes a new learning paradigm which ensures one-to-one learning with flexible mode of content configuration, and adaptive delivery and assessment. Although in the past years, Learning Ma...

in the opinion of many specialists and teachers, there is lack of enough attention to the needs of the students and their learning styles in the arabic language curriculum. learning styles are important factors in the success of teaching. this study aimed at determining the learning styles of arabic language and literature students in iranian universities. the method of study is survey, and the...

Given appropriate training, human observers typically demonstrate clear improvements in performance on perceptual tasks. However, the benefits of training frequently fail to generalize other tasks, even those that appear similar trained task. A great deal research has focused task characteristics influence extent which learning generalizes. less is known about what might predict considerable in...

the wisdom of crowds, an innovative theory described in social science, claims that the aggregate decisions made by a group will often be better than those of its individual members if the four fundamental criteria of this theory are satisfied. this theory used for in clustering problems. previous researches showed that this theory can significantly increase the stability and performance of lea...

this research proceeded historical analyzing of currere as autobiographical course in reconceptualist works. therefore, reconceptualist works studied by discourse analyzing. unit of analyzing was sentenced and its level was an explanation. in order to research questions data divided to four categories: meaning of currere, methods of currere, stages of currere and politic and sociologic base in ...

the purpose of this study is to explore and classify the perceptions of the phenomenon of hypocrisy in organization from viewpoint of employees in a university using phenomenography, so that achieving to a deeper understanding of this phenomenon. sampling was done by maximum variation method and sample size was determined 30 people using theoretical saturation. some open semi-structural intervi...

Cross language classification is an important task in multilingual learning, aiming for reducing the labeling cost of training a different classification model for each individual language. In this paper we develop a novel subspace co-regularized multi-view learning method for cross language text classification. The empirical study on a set of cross language text classification tasks shows the ...

We study coordination in dynamic global games with private learning. Players choose whether and when to invest irreversibly in a project whose success depends on its quality and the timing of investment. Players gradually learn about project quality. We identify conditions on temporal incentives under which, in sufficiently long games, players coordinate on investing whenever doing so is not do...

For a web-based dynamic learning environment, personalized support for learners becomes more important. In order to achieve optimal efficiency in a learning process, individual learner's cognitive learning style should be taken into account. It is necessary to provide learners with an individualized learning support system. In this paper, a framework of web learning system based on genetic algo...

Purpose – This paper is concerned with an online parameter estimation algorithm for nonlinear uncertain time-varying systems for which no stochastic information is available. Design/methodology/approach – The estimation procedure, called nonlinear learning rate adaptation (NLRA), computes an individual adaptive learning rate for each parameter instead of using a single adaptive learning rate fo...
