Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) refers to a groups of developmental disabilities that can cause significant social, communication and behavioral challenges .This pauses several characteristics that subject a child to problems such social communication, difficulty relating to people, things and events, and repetitive body movements or behaviors .In the academic setting as well, the learners who suffer from (ASD) encounter various problems. As an instance of academic skill reading, Reading is required to be learn but not on the way it done in traditional classroom. An intervention which yielded better results in learning reading skill, based on (Iman and Fouad, 2010) [1] organizing the memory lead to paying attention to relevant information ,Thus this research, attempts to use utilize multimedia elements aimed to find out the impact of multimedia elements (graphic and text) in reading comprehension. And to ascertain how multimedia, especially graphic helps children with autism in reading comprehension. This systematic review attempts to address three specific research questions: the teaching reading comprehension to children with autism [1] can graphic with the texts help young children to improve their reading skills? [2] Can colors lead to better attention with autistic learners? [3] Does the computer-based intervention program increase and improve autistic learner's abilities to read? Results indicate that children with autism can benefit from the strategies of reading comprehension when they used graphic and text together.
This study aims to evaluate the effect of employing infographics in higher education, specifically with regard to students' interactions and their perception of the meaning of transferred information. This evaluation was presented through lectures at Applied Sciences Private University in Jordan and two other selected colleges (one scientific and the other humanistic) to compare the two variables applied in this study. To achieve this object infographic materials were developed by researcher and guided by (ASSURE) instructional model to present the lectures to the two experimental groups by infographic method through two selected courses from Information Technology College and Business College. Meanwhile, two control groups were taking the same courses in deferent class by conventional method. In addition, the total of participants was (138 students) and that includes all students of the experimental and control groups. Furthermore, a post-test questionnaire was involved to experimental groups to measure their interaction and perception after presenting lectures by infographic materials. The findings of this study show that infographics have a positive and strong impact on students' interaction and perception. Furthermore, a comparison shows that the students of the scientific and humanistic colleges had different effect of interaction. However, infographics have a similar effect on perception in both colleges.
Abstract-A study was conducted on the perceptions of 35Malaysian school teachers on their use of Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) for teaching vocabulary to learners of Arabic as a Second or Foreign Language (ASL/AFL). Most teachers expressed their favour for using CALL, and especially recognized its potential in helping and encouraging such learners, but also pointed out its time consuming nature. CALL can assist in the teaching and learning of Arabic vocabulary, as it has also been useful in education in general. For instance, it is noted that CALL can present vocabulary in multiple modes simultaneously; it supports interaction, and enables personalized learning. Further research is ongoing on its effectiveness, but CALL could play an important role to assist learners who face difficulties in acquiring Arabic vocabulary, and understanding it in context. Index Terms-Arabic language, computer assisted language learning, foreign language learning.

The number of research papers on Motion Capture technologies published in conferences and journals has been rapidly increasing due to the emerging of new technologies, software and hardware which create new challenges and opportunities for Martial Arts research. Current trend of the Martial Arts using Motion Capture technologies (MAMoCap) researches consists of phases of MoCap-Processing and Post-MoCap-Processing; contexts of algorithms, performance and system development; and feedbacks of intrinsic and extrinsic. The purpose of this paper is to study and explore the potential future trend of research and publications pertaining to MAMoCap researches. A systematic survey of research publications was conducted through the topic of Martial Art (MA) and Motion Capture (MoCap) in order to retrieve the scientific articles published in FOUR (4) established publishers including SPRINGERLINK, SCIENCEDIRECT, IEEE and ACM. Search refinements were done by the inclusions criteria of document types of academic journals and conference proceedings; and by the exceptions criteria of letters, editorials and book reviews. The findings show that only 27% of the publications have been selected while other 73% have been classified as irrelevant contents due to none significance and relevance to the MAMoCap researches. Analysis on the research phases, contexts and feedbacks has been conducted and discussed in detailed for pertaining knowledge gaps and future research agenda. Based on the preliminary study, a framework of EFs-Based Automated Evaluation System for the martial arts should be proposed.
Massive open online courses’ technology is becoming the most recent innovations in online education and academia. Recently, it has been widely adopted in educational sectors and gained popularity among both students and instructors. Massive open online courses have rapidly become a trend in the field of higher education and received much recognition from scholars and non-profit educational organizations. Therefore, there has been a growing interest in investigating its limitations, challenges, and impact on education. Some issues and problems have been reported in the research and practice, such as problems related to massive open online course learners’ motivation and engagement during the courses, and course contents’ presentations have a significant impact on learner’s motivation. However, there have been few contributions to the literature in discerning the varying motivational drivers for choosing to consume the different presentation styles of massive open online courses. Therefore, the main goal of this work is to propose an innovative framework for adaptive massive open online course based on learners’ preferences. As such, the courses’ presentations are adapted to the preferred learning style of each learner. In this regard, this paper was conducted based on quantitative research methods.
Martial art (MA) is considered a conserved heritage primarily for promoting certain level of identities and cultures. With the technology advancement, motion capture has been widely used in MA to capture and evaluate human performance. However, methods to create motion templates (templates) of MA techniques from scratch are rarely exposed because there is no complete evaluation system framework suggested for MA. This paper presents in detaile how to create the MA templates using framework of extrinsic feedback-based evaluation system generally and R-GDL specifically. To create more robust templates, GDL has been used in validation tests. SSCM becomes the case study in this research. The main contribution in this paper is introduction of new datasets of templates for SSCM techniques. Evaluation of
