There can be no single best way of learning, and each teaching mode has its own merits and demerits. Didactic lectures in and of themselves are insufficient, whereas a problem-based tutorial alone can be as ineffective. This study was conducted to determine if a problem-based review after didactic lectures would lead to better student performance. To compare performance, the same student group ...

In this paper we present an analysis of the development process of technology-supported didactic material. Such analysis considers didactic materials as the conjunction of contents and instructional design used to guide learning and teaching processes. And we examine why several features such as reusability, semantic interoperability and collaboration support must be ensured from the earlier st...

In the past many didactic models have been developed for regular courses. But didactic models for e-learning courses and specific for MOOCs are still under development. Such a model should provide a basis for measurements against the high drop-out rate of MOOCs. Recently we introduced FETCH 2.0 as didactic model for e-learning using social media. In this paper we discuss a didactic model for re...

Physiology teaching as an essential part of medical education faces tremendous criticism regarding curriculum design, methods of implementation, and application of knowledge in clinical practice. In the traditional method of medical education, physiology is taught in the first year and involves little interdisciplinary interaction. The Manipal College of Medical Sciences, Pokhara, Nepal (affili...

The Didactic Networks proposed in this paper are based on previous publications in the field of the RSR (Rhetorical-Semantic Relations). The RSR is a set of primitive relations used for building a specific kind of semantic networks for artificial intelligence applications on the web: the RSN (Rhetorical-Semantic Networks). We bring into focus the RSR application in the field of elearning, by de...

INTRODUCTION The structure of the interview day affects applicant interactions with faculty and residents, which can influence the applicant's rank list decision. We aimed to determine if there was a difference in matched residents between those interviewing on a day on which didactics were held and had increased resident and faculty presence (didactic day) versus an interview day with less ava...

Augmented Reality, Visualization, Educational Technology In order to take advantage of the didactic potential that Augmented Reality (AR) provides we present an educational resource meant to help to transform the teaching and learning of Mathematics, through the creation of graphical representations for mathematical reasoning. The spatial visualization skill is a cross-curriculum content that h...

It is not necessary to say that we are in the crossroads between the old socratic methods of medical education and the complete adoption of new philosophies such as collaborative learning (social media) or learner delivery co-design (flipped classroom). All these approaches are based on the fact that our learners and some of the teachers have a very millennial learning style, defined by the abi...

We describe a case-study of the application of web-technology (Helm [2]) to create web-based didactic material out of a repository of formal mathematics (C-CoRN [5]), using the structure of an existing course (IDA [4]). The paper discusses the difficulties related to associating notation to a formula, the embedding of formal notions into a document (the “view”), and the rendering of proofs.

The paper presents SQL power of periodic system using for didactic aim. The article is based on a PHP application developed to present a periodic system in a form, which can be used for answer at different questions, which can be asked related at the structure of elements. There are presented all queries that are needed to be use for classification of elements after different properties, the da...
