Programmed instruction: What it is and how to do it

Hand gesture-based interactive puppetry system to assist storytelling for children

“…There is a plethora of research in the field of psychology which is used for the development of important skills in children [18][19][20][21]. Research suggests that spatial-temporal reasoning and spatial visualization ability are an important indicator of achievement in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics [22], and a pre-school child's visual spatial attention ability predicts his future reading skills [23].…”

Puppet Narrator: Utilizing Motion Sensing Technology in Storytelling for Young Children

“…There is a plethora of research in the psychology field which is used for development of important skills in children [9][10][11][12]. Research suggests that spatial-temporal reasoning and spatial visualization ability is an important indicator of achievement in science, technology, engineering and mathematics [13] and a pre-schooler's visual spatial attention ability predicts his future reading skills [14].…”

On the geometric character of stress in continuum mechanics

“…Note that the differential operator d is closely related to Cartan's exterior covariant differential (reviewed in [9, Chapter 9], see also [21] and [16]), which was originally developed to express connections and curvatures in terms of forms. Motivated by the fact that the usual pull-back of forms commutes with the exterior derivative, we are able to use d to define a derivative D on elements of …”

“…In covariant elasticity, one starts from the balance of energy in (21) and postulates that it is invariant under arbitrary spatial diffeomorphisms ξ t : S → S, in order to derive the local forms of the conservation of mass, balance of momenta and the Doyle-Ericksen formula, see [17] and [23]. This covariant approach is a beautiful generalization of the classical Green-Rivlin-Naghdi results on invariance of energy balance under rotations and translations in Euclidean space.…”
