Policies are increasingly implemented in complex networks of organizations and target populations. Effective action often requires that managers deal with arrays of other actors to procure resources, build support, coproduce results, and overcome obstacles to implementation. Few large-n studies have examined the crucial role that networks and network management can play in the execution of publ...

Learning in an ALN mode is modeled by a set of educational processes. The group is modeled by an abstract entity that provides services to the learners via its group educational processes. The learners reciprocate by their corresponding educational processes. Following findings of the Social Interdependence Theory of Cooperative Learning, we conjecture that the ALN is Cooperative Learning enhan...

Subjective perception of randomness has been researched by psychologists and mathematics educators, using a variety of tasks, resulting in a number of different descriptions for the biases that characterize people's performances. Analyzing prospective teachers’ possible biases concerning randomness is highly relevant as new mathematics curricula for compulsory teaching levels are being proposed...

After a decade of movement-based interaction in human–computer interaction, designing for the moving body still remains a challenge. Research in this field requires methods to help access, articulate, and harness embodied experiences in ways that can inform the design process. To address this challenge, this article appropriates bodystorming, an embodied ideation method for movement-based inter...

Serious games have become one of the powerful tools in the education field, view of their capability to transmit the knowledge to the players/ students, but to judge if a given serious game is effective there must be a system that analyzes the performances and behaviors of the players, to see their level of understanding about a particular topic proposed by the serious game.
