Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a modeling standard that has been commonly used in the software industry. However, students face difficulties while learning how to model complete and correct UML diagrams. One of the reasons is the way UML has been taught. In order to improve the effectiveness of learning it is necessary to employ methods in which the students actively take part in the learning...
Teaching software development to undergraduate students is a challenging task. One of the challenges is to secure a high education quality for large numbers of students. Different projects should be easily comparable while allowing for different tasks for different teams to reduce the risk of plagiarism. Our solution is to use an application framework. The student project teams' final applications...
Complex power equipment has the characteristics of complex structure, involving a wide range of knowledge, many disciplines, difficult in system simulation, many of the equipment is running in high temperature, high pressure, high voltage and other extreme and dangerous environment, the real experiment has high risk, high energy consumption, high cost and can not carry out, not all the related professional...
Because of the present deep impact of information technology on society, school subjects that deal with topics of computer science or digital literacy gain importance nowadays. Some countries start to teach related topics in primary education and even in kindergarten. The underlying curricula, educational standards and/or competency models have already been developed and established and differ in...
A global push to pursue careers in engineering has led to an increase in enrollment in engineering programs. However, rising student populations have led institutions to make compromises in order to effectively manage existing resources and rising costs, such as resorting to large classes despite evidence that they may be detrimental to student learning. Recognizing that large classes are both a necessity...
The development and innovative application of digital research methods in humanities disciplines, characterised as Digital Humanities or e-Humanities, is an established feature of the e-Science and e-Research landscape. Typically these digital methods enable existing research questions to be tackled in new ways, at a scale and speed that transcend manual methods. In this paper we present a different...
In this paper, we design a five-sided educational data mining framework (5S-EDMF) to analyze college students' diligence and effectiveness of study, and to recommend learning resource accordingly. We noticed data collected from students' E-learning activities to reveal a lot about the attitudes and behaviors of students online as well as offline. This provides us an additional valuable tool to access...
Real world information technology projects cut across multiple business domains and processes, involve large amounts of data and an assortment of different technologies. Advanced courses within an IS programs must include projects that help students gain a holistic view of an enterprise by exposing them to business domains, business processes and technical knowledge and skills that will help them...
In 2015, 35 million learners participated online in 4,200 MOOCs organized by over 500 universities. Learning designers orchestrate MOOC content to engage learners at scale and retain interest by carefully mixing videos, lectures, readings, quizzes, and discussions. Universally, far fewer people actually participate in MOOCs than originally sign up with a steady attrition as courses progress. Studies...
Today, many Information System Success studies are performed however only a few studies which focused on the impact of a personal user to succeed of applying IS. The aim of this study is to investigate and to measure the effect of End User Computing Satisfaction into Individual of Impact Performance, with regard the successful implementation of Information system at higher education. Random sampling...
Simulation represents the major research method in all knowledge domains and a scientifically valid method of estimating the characteristics of complex systems used for decision making in different areas of engineering. The existing and projected systems can be explored effectively using mathematical models (analytical and simulation) implemented on high-performance computers, which act in this case...
The purpose of establishing buffer operators is to improve the smooth degree, then increase the simulation accuracy of the model. This paper probed into modeling mechanism of several typical buffer operators such as the arithmetic buffer operators, the buffer operators with monotonic function and weighted buffer operators. The results indicates that after infinite buffer operators, no matter we adopt...
This paper proposes a combination of data mining and natural language processing technology, try to analyze students' learning behavior and content in MOOCs interactive part, to dig their learning interest, difficulty, tendencies, to evaluate their homework effect, through the interaction between teachers and students, students posting, homework or answer content, preventing of cheating behavior,...
To study the mechanism of kindergarten teachers information technology use behavior, this article based on the task characters of early childhood teachers, constructed the kindergarten teachers' information technology use behavior model. With 385 kindergarten teachers as the research object, using self-made questionnaire to survey. the results show that: (1) the individual factors through the perceived...
Data mining technology is the key technology and core content of big data age. The undergraduate data mining course introduces the basic concepts, basic principles and application techniques of data mining, as well as the characteristics and new technologies of data mining under the background of big data. According to the characteristics of undergraduate students, the curriculum should weaken the...
As a measuring tool of evaluating teaching performance of Universities, the Excellent courses attract more and more attention. But in practice, how to objectively evaluate excellent courses is still unresolved. This paper tries to evaluate an excellent course of Huangshan University, selling course, based on the grey clustering model. We empirically justified the effectiveness of this method and followed...
The large-scale construction of MOOC curriculum is an opportunity and a challenge to the teaching mode reform of university computer in ordinary colleges and universities. This paper first analyzes the urgency of the “basic requirement” proposed teaching content reform to promote the needs of MOOC courses in ordinary colleges and universities; Second, leveraging the elite, build MOOC courses in collaboration...
MOOC, which means massive open online courses, is a kind of new education and learning pattern. Providing more high-quality, efficient and convenient education resources and learning opportunities, MOOC will be the key point of the construction of courses in the next few years all over the world. MOOC have many problems to be solved, among which the construction of curriculum and knowledge system...
The rapid development of the Internet has brought great convenience to users, but it also brought a lot of troubles to the users' information privacy exposure. This study selects the basic information of 300 users on FACEBOOK social media to cluster analysis. The data sets of users are divided into five groups by experiment, and the clustering results are classified and then discussed. By the analysis...
The quality of distance learning courses is determined by the proper organization of the teaching material and methodology. However, it should be taken into account, among other factors, the history of successes and failures of previous achievements of a course, as well as the profile of the new classes of students. This work proposes a data visualization model based on the Learning Analytics of a...
