In this study, different types of media learning environments, including traditional PC-slides and IVR, such as VR-game, which were employed for experiential learning of science courses with 109 students in the middle school. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of reflection strategy and type of media on participants’ cognitive outcomes. Significant interaction between media and methods illustrated the reflection strategy enhanced learners' cognitive performance through immersive VR learning environments (IVREs), but not traditional PC-slides. By using the drawing method, the VR-game made students the most engaged in learning and focus on the key points of important concepts; non-reflection learners focused on games and their learning was easily disturbed. It was concluded that the immersive virtual reality with the specific reflection method was effective in increasing learning performance and the drawing as a generative learning strategy indeed reduced the external cognitive load of learning and promoted the effectiveness of cognitive processing.","PeriodicalId":93549,"journal":{"name":"EPiC series in computing","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69432555","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}

The objective of the system is to allow the actors, students, teachers, researchers, administrative and technical staff to develop and strengthen their digital skills. It is a matter of allowing individuals to evaluate themselves to self-regulate. The design of the platform is organized around a framework of digital skills, which is based on the DigComp framework of the European Commission and the Digital Capabilities Framework of JISC. The MakeITeasy platform is organized around four components: 1) a self-positioning test, allowing people to situate themselves in the reference framework; this test produces 2) an individual digital skills profile, which offers then to compare oneself to 3) target profiles to be reached; and finally, 4) a recommendation system which lists training courses to fill the gaps in one's skills. The platform is currently being developed for the students, doctoral students, and teacher populations. The self-positioning tool covers the generic competencies of the reference framework in its entirety while being as concise as possible so that it can be completed in full. The questions are based on occupational situations because the context to which they are attached makes it easier to assess the mastery of the skill by different categories of members of the university community. The tool presents the same generic competency at least three times in different scenarios and uses the responses to the three situations to decide the level of mastery. The test situations and questions as well as the entire platform were evaluated by various user tests.","PeriodicalId":93549,"journal":{"name":"EPiC series in computing","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69433884","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}

For using these devices, we need cables to charge or connect them. So, for people, the cables can be found almost everywhere. The cables also bring new problems, like the cables always appear in a messy form with crosses and knots. We have to tidy up the cables before using them and this is a time-consuming and tedious task. And in colleges and companies where have a large number of cables, when we clean the room or laboratory, we can always find these cables are annoying. For this reason we think that it would make our daily live more convenient to use robots to manipulate and untie the cables. Therefore, for manipulating and untying the cables, this paper proposes a method which can convert the 2D cable data from image into 3D cable data in Unity3D, where the 3D cable model is movable and can simulate the real cable, we call this 3D cable model the “Simulatable Cable Model”. In our approach, we use 2D and 3D neural networks to recover the 3D position information of the cable from the input image, then adjust this 3D position information to increase it's accuracy, and finally create the “simulatable cable model” in Unity3D. The “Simulatable Cable Model” provides a new way to manipulate the cables, that is, to simulate the actions in the virtual environment and then apply it in the real world. Such a method can be used not only to support people daily life with robots, but also can be used to arrange cables in the workplace like factories and so on. We believe that our research is applicable and helpful to the recognition and manipulation of all cord-like objects, and will also be useful in the field of recognizing and manipulating soft objects.","PeriodicalId":93549,"journal":{"name":"EPiC series in computing","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69433934","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}

Eybers","doi":"10.29007/pc8j","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.29007/pc8j","url":null,"abstract":"Organisations need to be able to adopt AI successfully, but also responsibly. This requirement is not trivial, as AI can deliver real value to adopters. However, can also result in serious impacts on humans. AI’s technical capabilities make AI powerful, still the implementation of AI in organisations is not limited to the technical elements and requires a more holistic approach. An AI implementation within an organisation is a socio-technical system, with the interplay between social and technical components. When AI makes decisions that impact people, the socio considerations in AI adoption frame- works are paramount. Although technical adoption challenges are well researched and can overlap with aspects associated with traditional IT implementations, artificial intelli- gence adoption often faces additional social implication. This study focuses on these social challenges, which is a problem frequently experienced by many organisations. The study investigates how an organisation can increase adoption of AI as part of its quest to become more data-driven. This study was conducted at an automotive manufacturer’s analytics competence centre, located in South Africa. This paper describes the first iteration of a larger research effort that follows the design science research methodology. A socio-specific artificial intelligence adoption framework was created and can be used by organisations to help them succeed with their AI adoption initiatives in a responsible manner.","PeriodicalId":93549,"journal":{"name":"EPiC series in computing","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69448644","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}

The outlet temperature of the shell and tube heat exchanger system has to be kept at a desired set point according to the process requirement by using controllers. Many controllers such as PID, feedback plus feed forward, Fuzzy logic, Internal Model based PID controller are used to control the temperature. The control system objective is to control the hot fluid outlet temperature by manipulating the inlet cold fluid flow rate. The transfer function of the shell and tube heat exchanger process is obtained using energy balance equations. Designing of the PID Controller is done by conventional Cohen-Coon tuning method and advanced IMC method. The closed loop results are obtained using PID controller both Cohen-Coon method and IMC method. The closed loop responses for various set point changes in hot fluid outlet temperature and disturbance in inlet temperature of cold fluid are studied. The experiment and MATLAB simulations are carried out by using the above parameters of CC-PID and IMC-PID and the data are noted for different set points. Comparison is made between the results of both the experiment and simulations. And the compared the results of Cohen-Coon method and IMC tuning method. On comparing the results, we can demonstrate that IMC based PID controller gives better responses in terms of lesser overshoot and faster settling time. The present work emphasis is about the experimental demonstration of advanced controller such as Internal model controller (IMC) to a general process such as shell and tube heat exchanger control.","PeriodicalId":93549,"journal":{"name":"EPiC series in computing","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69432087","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}
