As pedagogical training becomes more advanced and intensive, new methods of instruction that incorporate information technology are becoming increasingly important. The purpose of this article is to investigate how using the MuseScore scorewriter to teach solfeggio affects music students' ability to think creatively. The program designed for a…

This case study examines the development of a proof-of-concept (PoC) generative artificial intelligence (genAI) model inspired by OpenAI's ChatGPT®, implemented within the Office of Research Administration (ORA) at Emory University. Generative artificial intelligence (genAI) refers to AI models capable of producing human-like text. Specifically,…

With almost all MLIS and similar degree programs having a required course covering database design, it is critical to develop curriculum that engages students in learning essential concepts and how to implement designs. We report on a project that explored how essential knowledge about database design can be taught effectively through experiential…

A method is presented which can be used to obtain analytical solutions for boundary value problems (BVPs) using the matrix exponential and Maple. Systems of second order, linear differential equations are expressed as two or more first order equations in matrix form, and their solutions are obtained using the matrix exponential, matrix…

This study demonstrates the use of two web-based programs, one to identify video preferences and the other to assess their reinforcing effects. We used the Multiple-Stimulus-Without-Replacement Preference Assessment Tool (MSWO PAT) to identify the video preference hierarchies of seven participants, ages 4-11 years old. We then used a customized…

This paper is concerned with the process of selecting between the increasingly popular bi-factor model and the second-order factor model in measurement research. It is indicated that in certain settings widely used in empirical studies, the second-order model is nested in the bi-factor model and obtained from the latter after imposing appropriate…

To explore the dynamics of processing in manuscript production, it is necessary to possess a system for recording the writer's graphic activity. This work describes the new version of the Eye and Pen program (version 3.01). In addition to the fact that it is now freely available (https://www.eyeandpen.net), the improvements described focus on its…

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have become one of the most popular ways of learning in recent years due to their flexibility and convenience. However, high dropout rate has become a prominent problem that hinders the further development of MOOCs. Therefore, the prediction of student dropouts is the key to further enhance the MOOCs platform.…

When performing an aggregate data meta-analysis of a continuous outcome, researchers often come across primary studies that report the sample median of the outcome. However, standard meta-analytic methods typically cannot be directly applied in this setting. In recent years, there has been substantial development in statistical methods to…

This paper is part 4 in a series of workshops that examine the properties of some simple models of vocabulary networks. This Workshop explores how the overall activity level of a vocabulary network can be altered by changing the connections in the network (i.e., by implementing relinking events). The Workshop is linked to an online practice room…

This work was developed to present constructive steps of multiple integrals using the open-source software Geogebra. The main focus was directed towards creating three-dimensional graphs of integrals through Riemann sums in two variables. Some practical examples are developed to demonstrate the reliability of the presented results, which are…

While the introduction of memory-safe programming languages into embedded, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) offers an opportunity to eliminate many system vulnerabilities, a pragmatic adoption of memory-safe programming languages often necessitates incremental deployment due to practical development constraints, such as the size of many legacy code…

This study aims to generalize the reliability of the GAAIS, which is known to perform valid and reliable measurements, is frequently used in the literature, aims to measure one of today's popular topics, and is one of the first examples developed in the field. Within the meta-analytic reliability generalization study, moderator analyses were also…

Gamification can make learning more fun and engaging for students. Software engineering can utilize gamification to help students learn and improve their skills from the complexity of software engineering. This study used quantitative research to examines perceived ease of use, student satisfaction, and perceived usefulness to measure gamification…

Physical experiments in classrooms have many benefits for student learning, including increased student interest, participation and knowledge retention. While experiments are common in engineering and physics classes, they are seldom used in first-year calculus, where the focus is on solving problems analytically and, occasionally, numerically. In…
