This research examines the integration of wearable technology in English Language Teaching (ELT) within higher education technical institutions in India. Traditional ELT methodologies struggle to meet the diverse learning needs of students in large, resource-constrained classrooms. Limited access to skilled language instructors, varying…

This paper presents a simple model of the provision of higher educational services that considers and exemplifies nonlinear, stochastic, and potentially chaotic processes. I use the methods of system dynamics to simulate these processes in the context of a particular sociologically interesting case, namely that of the Turkish higher education…

These proceedings contain the papers of the 12th International Conference on Mobile Learning 2016, which was organized by the International Association for Development of the Information Society, in Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal, April 9-11, 2016. The Mobile Learning 2016 Conference seeks to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of…

Presents an interactive simulation model on which the academic aspects of university management can be analyzed and alternative management strategies tested. Focuses specifically on long-term, dynamic, strategic management problems and yields performance measures about the fundamental activities in a university that can support strategic…

In computer-based simulations meant to support learning, students must bring a wide range of relevant knowledge, skills, and abilities to bear jointly as they solve meaningful problems in a learning domain. To function efficiently as an assessment, a simulation system must also be able to evoke and interpret observable evidence about targeted…

Describes a study that examined the effects of goal setting on undergraduate students competing in a computerized business simulation. Group cohesiveness is discussed, treatments for the experimental and control groups are described, perceived team success is measured, and team simulation performance is evaluated.

Cognitive processes in the Raven Progressive Matrices Test, a nonverbal test of analytic intelligence, are analyzed in terms of processes distinguishing between high- and low-scoring students and processes common to all subjects and test items. Two experiments with 89 college students identify the abilities distinguishing among individuals. (SLD)

Reviews 10 computerized business simulations used to teach business policy courses, discusses problems with measuring performance, and presents a statistically based approach to assessing performance that permits individual team goal setting as part of the computer model, and allows simulated firms to start with different financial and operating…

Describes a study of university students that investigated the effects of a variable unique to Internet-based learning, namely download delay of instructional materials. Discusses a simulated online teaching tool that measured the effects of download delay of images on test performance, time spent on the material, end-user satisfaction, and…

The Simulation of Interactive Decision-Making is a videotape administered instrument designed to measure functional, rather than academic, professional knowledge of teachers. Validity studies with experienced teachers and college students not trained as teachers support use of the instrument as an easily scored measure of functional professional…
