BACKGROUND The effects of various educational strategies have been examined in continuing medical education. Web-based learning has emerged as an alternative to ordinary classroom lessons. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether an interactive Web-based course including personal guidance via email or cellular phone texting may be used to improve practice behavior of general practitioners in the mana...

A near-optimal midcourse trajectory shaping guidance algorithm is proposed for both air and ballistic target engagement mission attributes for generic long range interceptor missile. This guidance methodology is based on the maximum final velocity as the objective function and maximum permissible flight altitude as the in-flight state constraint as well as the head-on orientation as the termina...

BACKGROUND An e-health care program has previously shown to have a positive effect on return to work, quality of life and pain in patients who underwent gynaecological surgery. Plausibly, providing the care program to a population undergoing other types of surgery will be beneficial as well. The objectives of this study are to evaluate patients' opinions, needs and preferences regarding the inf...

This study summarises the development of “Gödöllő Career Guidance School” from its beginnings until today. The is based on documents and teaching materials available at university. We describe both milestones in school intellectual products created there, present “Course for Teachers Preparing Guidance.” On other hand, a document analysis was carried out to impact pedagogical programme surround...

Object configurations can be perceptually represented at various hierarchical levels. For example, in visual search, global Kanizsa figures are detected efficiently, whereas search for local groupings is inefficient, with similarity-dependent nontarget interference arising at the hierarchical level that defines the target (Conci, Müller, & Elliott, 2007). The present study was designed to exami...

Integratingmobile phones into higher education, andmore specifically in the distance education context, is no longer regarded a strange phenomenon. Mobile devices arewidely used by distance education institutions tomake learning available and accessible to increasingly more students. Although mobile learning providesmoremobility and convenience to these students than online learning, students m...

Compared with other media, programmable bricks provide children with the opportunity to create their own product and, through this process, to express creative thinking. Studies have found that learning robotics or integrating programming bricks into courses can help to develop students’ problem-solving abilities and enhance their learning performance. This study attempted to develop a one-to-o...
