Reflective thought, as sustained in writing, is ottributed to two-way communication between o content problem space and a rhetorical problem space. An instructional experiment involving sixth-graders aimed at helping them sustoin such a two-way process independently, in place of the more typical onewoy process of generating content and writing it out. Instruction included modeling of thinking a...

We show a subclass of simple deterministic languages which is teachable in polynomial examples. Teachability on grammatical inference is studied with the setting called “identification in the limit from polynomial time and data”, and there are negative results for famous languages. In this paper, we show a learning algorithm from membership queries and counterexamples for a subclass of simple d...

The present paper introduces a new model for teaching randomized learners. Our new model, though based on the classical teaching dimension model, allows to study the influence of various parameters such as the learner’s memory size, its ability to provide or to not provide feedback, and the influence of the order in which examples are presented. Furthermore, within the new model it is possible ...
