As an early adopter presentation-oriented hardware software in classrooms, England represents a critical case for investigating ICT into classroom practice. paper reports the results survey English secondary use (n = 183). Using Rasch analysis to construct...

Abstract This paper contributes to curriculum theory from the perspective of a fundamental critique education. Its objective is two-fold: analyze both traditional and critical approaches types education that flow them propose changes could result in significant improvements curricula through radical inclusive approach.

Recently, the situatedness of learning has come to the center of attention in both research and practice, also a result of the insight that traditional learning methods in the form of large decontextualized courses lead to inert knowledge; i.e., knowledge that can be reproduced, but not applied to real-world problem solving. In order to avoid the inertness, pedagogy tries to set up authentic le...

There has been significant growth in the literature base exploring questions of teaching undergraduate mathematics. In this paper we synthesize on proof-based mathematics, drawing 104 published reports from a range countries and research traditions. We primarily differentiate papers into those which explore lecture-based pedagogy student-centered pedagogy. For each type instruction, focus three...

Two demand assignment TDMA satellite access schemes that are suitable for providing flexible interconnections of local area networks are compared by means of simulation: FODA/IBEA and CFRA. A unique simulation tool was used, a meshed network of VSATs under the control of a master station was considered and similar networking conditions were applied to both access schemes. The generated traffic ...

Abstract With the development of various mobile social applications, video data has already occupied a dominant proportion Internet traffic, and is still growing rapidly, which not only brings economic pressure to users, but also causes traffic explosion on Internet. Data delivery through opportunistic networks regarded as an efficient way deal with this problem. But, due characteristics mode m...
