The Open Learning Initiative (OLI) is an open educational resources project at Carnegie Mellon University that began in 2002 with a grant from The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. OLI creates web-based courses that are designed so that students can learn effectively without an instructor. In addition, the courses are often used by instructors to support and complement face-to-face classroo...

learly, instruction issue and execution are closely related: The more parallel the instruction execution, the higher the requirements for the parallelism of instruction issue. Thus, we see the continuous and harmonized increase of parallelism in instruction issue and execution. This article focuses on superscalar instruction issue, tracing the way parallel instruction execution and issue have i...

Information provision, which is a common behavior-change strategy, is only effective if the information is credible. Infectious disease prevention messages that rely on the germ theory may fail to persuade people who are unfamiliar with microbes. A novel program in rural Pakistan augments conventional hygiene instruction by demonstrating with microscopes that microbes exist. Through a randomize...

"Interactive" and "interactivity" are some of the most commonly used terms in instruction. For example, we are often told that multimedia (among other emerging technologies) is superior to "traditional" instruction, often because it is "interactive." However, the term interactivity is a loosely defined term that, according to Rose (1999), seems to deconstruct itself when closely examined. Her i...

This study investigated the effectiveness of using online instruction as a supplement to a face-to-face introductory technology education course. Survey data were collected from 46 pre-service teachers. Findings indicated that when traditional face-to-face instruction was combined with online components, learning was enhanced over a single delivery mode. However, the blended approach adopted in...

Differentiated instruction is an approach to teaching that acknowledges people have multiple paths for learning and for making sense of ideas. In e-learning, differentiated instruction has the same meaning as in traditional instruction, but different tools are available to help students learn and to provide information in ways most appropriate to them, including types of new media inclusion, le...
