Silapachote, A. Srisuphab, S.

Rapid advances in information and communication technology literacy have gained it recognition as an essential skill in the 21st century. Mastering both is a challenge, as is teaching them. Integration with other disciplines, addressing STEM education, makes this even more challenging. Tackling this dilemma, we adapt cooperative learning and co-teaching schemes. Hands-on class activities effectively convey an understanding of a complex model without equations. Computer simulations promote visual comprehensions for highly dynamic systems. In our course, general ecology for biologists, mathematical complexity is a crucial element required for transitioning from the real world to the world of numbers pertaining both linear and non-linear relationships. We designed indoor activities to initiate analytical thinking and to extend appreciations of outdoor experiences to abstract reasoning in numerical terms and computer models. Our approach fulfills the objectives of guiding biology students to construct scenarios reflecting complex interactions among organisms in the natural world. They overcame their primarily negative mindset, feeling intimidated by mathematics and uncomfortably unfamiliar with computer technology. To evaluate our teaching method, students were asked to qualitatively write an after action evaluation. They expressed enjoyment in their learning. Though struggling at times, the experience was very rewarding and worthwhile. Students came to a realization of the importance of mathematics and information literacy skills, while drawing appreciation and awareness from outdoor experiences. Besides, we quantitatively analyzed students' performance, which effectively serves as a guideline for adjusting our course contents for the next offering of this subject.","PeriodicalId":230734,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Conference on Teaching, Assessment and Learning for Engineering (TALE)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130927967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adaptive testing using the IRT selects the most appropriate items to examinees automatically, resulting in more accurate ability estimation and more efficient test procedures than the conventional testing. However, the item parameters remain constants even if the features of the examinees change. To overcome this situation, we use the dually adaptive online IRT testing system, where “dually adaptive” means that one is targeted to the adequate item selection and the other is targeted to the adjustment of the difficulty values for items. We have applied this method to the high-school mathematics testing case, and we have found that the system works well.","PeriodicalId":230734,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Conference on Teaching, Assessment and Learning for Engineering (TALE)","volume":"222 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115531283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Change is necessary to foster new ways of learning to address 20th century shortcomings in learning that mostly catered to the traits of Gen-X.

To foster non-assessment based learning, there is a need to provoke learning in multiple dimensions. QTiME learning is such a framework formulating learning dimensions, quadrants and steps that are simplistic, universal, actionable, cyclical and continuous - a paradigm shift.","PeriodicalId":230734,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Conference on Teaching, Assessment and Learning for Engineering (TALE)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132091689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A few studies have emphasized the importance of bringing YouTube in the classroom. A lecturer may use YouTube videos available on Internet or create his own videos as teaching materials. The purpose of this work is to study students' perceptions and preferences between these two options. A sample of 213 first year students completed a survey on their perceptions of the use of YouTube videos that were created by their lecturers. The study also included students' perceptions on the preferred length of video lectures of topics in Mathematics. The results confirmed that YouTube is commonly used by students and showed that videos created by their lecturers are preferred to videos found on Internet. The study suggested the use of videos with length less than 15 minutes for each topic in Mathematics.","PeriodicalId":230734,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Conference on Teaching, Assessment and Learning for Engineering (TALE)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126457411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(1) A type of expert system, which accumulates business domain knowledge related to the customer's business field, and answers learners' question on behalf of the customer is necessary. (2) Group-work role-play training is essential to elicit customer's real requirements and analyze them from various points of view. (3) A software agent system to monitor learner's behavior during role-play training, and act as an advisor in giving timely advice to learners is necessary. Learners who have no practical experience in defining requirements may follow a recommended procedure to elicit requirements and analyze them. In order to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method, we have implemented an exercise for corporate workers and fourth undergraduate students. Requirements modeling skill level of the students was increased to the same skill levels of the corporate workers by using proposed method.
