The present work displays an investigation focused on the understanding of sociology institutionalization in Mexico, and if it is possible to be spoken of an academic crisis of sociology, as it is handled nowadays, besides an investigation that takes care of specific values of the sociological knowledge in the reality of each region in Mexico. This approach starts, firstly, in a study of the so...

In [6] Carlsson demonstrated that all the pertinent conceptual constructs of strategic management theory can be represented with a knowledge based support (KBS)-system with hyperknowledge properties. Furthermore, he shows that cognitive maps can be used to trace the impact of the support and to generalize the experiences of the users. In this paper we will show that the effectiveness and useful...

This paper presents a concept map (CM) based semantic representation and knowledge visualization model. The model is featured as: concept map based semantic representation, CM-web information mapping model, knowledge visualization and maintenance. The model is supposed be applied for constructing domain knowledge system visually, knowledge retrieval from web information, knowledge-driven inform...

This paper proposes a novel translation-based knowledge graph embedding that preserves the logical properties of relations such as transitivity and symmetricity. The embedding space generated by existing translation-based embeddings do not represent transitive and symmetric relations precisely, because they ignore the role of entities in triples. Thus, we introduce a role-specific projection wh...

Utilizing parametric and nonparametric techniques, we assess the role of a heretofore relatively unexplored ‘input’ in the educational process, homework, on academic achievement. Our results indicate that homework is an important determinant of student test scores. Relative to more standard spending related measures, extra homework has a larger and more significant impact on test scores. Howeve...

A student conceptual model can be defined as a set of interconnected concepts associated with an estimation value that indicates how well these concepts are used by the students. It can model just one student or a group of students, and can be represented as a concept map, conceptual diagram or one of several other knowledge representation formats. Some e-assessment systems that automatically e...
