The Effects of Learning Self-Regulated Learning Strategies on High School Students' Math Problem-Solving Skills B. Shaalchi, Ph.D. Y. Rezaapoor J. Baabaapoor Kheyrodin, Ph.D. M. Alizaad Sardroodi F. Abdollaahi To see the effects of learning self-regulated learning strategies on math problem-solving skills among high school students, a sample of 271 randomly selected h...

the purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating role of learning goal orientation at the individual, group and organizational level in the relationship of transformational leadership with adaptive performance. the sample consisted of 175 employees of a service organization. fitness of the proposed model and indirect effects was examined through structural equation modeling and bootst...

In this work we explore the idea that, in the presence of a small training set of images, it could be beneficial to use that set itself to obtain a transformed training set (by performing a random rotation on each sample), train a source network using the transformed data, then retrain the source network using the original data. Applying this transfer learning technique to three different types...

Competition, despite its potential drawbacks, is an easily adopted and frequently used motivator in classrooms. Individual abilities, in the years of schooling, are inevitably different, and performance in competition is heavily ability dependent, resulting that more-able students always win while less-able students always lose. Students easily perceive how well they perform through the result ...

The use of online course research, while limited, is inconclusive in determining expected student performance in online versus a traditional lecture format. introductory microeconomics classes, analyzing learning differences between those in online and traditional lecture classes. In addition to comparing overall performances, the researchers tested further to determine if gender, ethnicity, ma...

SUSTAIN (Supervised and Unsupervised STratified Adaptive Incremental Network) is a network model of human category learning. SUSTAIN initially assumes a simple category structure. If simple solutions prove inadequate and SUSTAIN is confronted with a surprising event (e.g. it is told that a bat is a mammal instead of a bird), SUSTAIN recruits an additional cluster to represent the surprising eve...

Active Learning (AL) methods seek to improve classifier performance when labels are expensive or scarce. We consider two central questions: Where does AL work? How much does it help? To address these questions, a comprehensive experimental simulation study of Active Learning is presented. We consider a variety of tasks, classifiers and other AL factors, to present a broad exploration of AL perf...

The purpose of this study was to understand, describe and interpret the uses of information communication technology (ICT) in primary education in the Taiwan Schools Cyberfair as a means to expand and enhance student learning in an extra-curricular setting. Four winning schools, with 48 teachers and students involved, were purposefully selected for study. The research findings revealed that stu...
