A Study in the Applications of Teaching Machines by Lloyd E. Homme Pdf

A proposed shipboard tran mission system involved the connection of transmitters covering the 1f and 2-6 mc/s bands for simultaneous operation on a common antenna through available complementary filters. A broadband transformer was required to perform the necessary impedance transformation between transmitter and filter at a p wer level of 2500 watts. The approach given here concerns the design and analysis of eleven- and thirteenelement, linearly tapered, M-derived, low-passfilter, lumped-element transformers. The results of tests conducted on an experimental model of an eleven-element transformer constructed of receiver-type components are compared with the analytical data. (Author).

Teaching Machines by Bill Ferster Pdf

Technology promises to make learning better, cheaper, faster—but rarely has it kept that promise. The allure of educational technology is easy to understand. Classroom instruction is an expensive and time-consuming process fraught with contradictory theories and frustratingly uneven results. Educators, inspired by machines’ contributions to modern life, have been using technology to facilitate teaching for centuries. In Teaching Machines, Bill Ferster examines past attempts to automate instruction from the earliest use of the postal service for distance education to the current maelstrom surrounding Massive Open Online Courses. He tells the stories of the entrepreneurs and visionaries who, beginning in the colonial era, developed and promoted various instructional technologies. Ferster touches on a wide range of attempts to enhance the classroom experience with machines, from hornbooks, the Chautauqua movement, and correspondence courses to B. F. Skinner’s teaching machine, intelligent tutoring systems, and eLearning. The famed progressive teachers, researchers, and administrators that the book highlights often overcame substantial hurdles to implement their ideas, but not all of them succeeded in improving the quality of education. Teaching Machines provides invaluable new insight into our current debate over the efficacy of educational technology.

Teaching Machines and Programming by K. Austwick Pdf

Teaching Machines and Programming covers the significant developments in teaching machines and automated teaching, as well as the major theoretical issues and attributes involved in these procedures. After a brief introduction to teaching machine procedures, this six-chapter text goes on summarizing the industrial and military applications of teaching machines. The succeeding chapters consider the underlying theory, function, and schema of the adaptive teaching system, which are related to recognizable teaching functions performed by a human tutor. The last chapters discuss the development and features of linear programs and their application as new teaching aid. These chapters also look into some practical problems arising in programming for schools. This book will prove useful to computer programmers, school administrators, teachers, and students.

Teaching Machines by Audrey Watters Pdf

How ed tech was born: Twentieth-century teaching machines--from Sidney Pressey's mechanized test-giver to B. F. Skinner's behaviorist bell-ringing box. Contrary to popular belief, ed tech did not begin with videos on the internet. The idea of technology that would allow students to "go at their own pace" did not originate in Silicon Valley. In Teaching Machines, education writer Audrey Watters offers a lively history of predigital educational technology, from Sidney Pressey's mechanized positive-reinforcement provider to B. F. Skinner's behaviorist bell-ringing box. Watters shows that these machines and the pedagogy that accompanied them sprang from ideas--bite-sized content, individualized instruction--that had legs and were later picked up by textbook publishers and early advocates for computerized learning. Watters pays particular attention to the role of the media--newspapers, magazines, television, and film--in shaping people's perceptions of teaching machines as well as the psychological theories underpinning them. She considers these machines in the context of education reform, the political reverberations of Sputnik, and the rise of the testing and textbook industries. She chronicles Skinner's attempts to bring his teaching machines to market, culminating in the famous behaviorist's efforts to launch Didak 101, the "pre-verbal" machine that taught spelling. (Alternate names proposed by Skinner include "Autodidak," "Instructomat," and "Autostructor.") Telling these somewhat cautionary tales, Watters challenges what she calls "the teleology of ed tech"--the idea that not only is computerized education inevitable, but technological progress is the sole driver of events.

Machine Learning by Roger Inge,Jan Leif Pdf

In chapter one, Lei Jia, PhD and Hua Gao, PhD analyze machine learning applications in small molecule and macromolecule drug discovery and development while comparing the similarities and differences between the two. They also examine their advantages and limitations with the intent to encourage further creative machine learning applications in drug discovery and development. During chapter two, Oscar Claveria, Enric Monte, and Salvador Torra present a study on the extrapolative performance of several machine learning models in a multiple-input multiple-output setting that permits cross-correlation between the inputs. Bojan Ploj, Germano Resconi, and Ali Yaghoubi parallel the solution of a system by logic gates and by a neural network, in which considerations are computed by the designated one step method during chapter three. In chapter four, Loris Nannia, Nicolò Zaffonatoa, Christian Salvatoreb, Isabella Castiglionib, and the Alzheimers Disease Neuroimaging Initiative propose a method that could aid in the early diagnosis of Alzheimers disease. Afterwards, F. Dornaika and I. Kamal Aldine present and experimentally assess two non-linear data self-representativeness coding schemes based on Hilbert space and column generation. Lastly, Christos Chrysoulas, Grigorios Kalliatakis, and Georgios Stamatiadis give an overview of Apache Hadoop, an open-source software framework used to distribute storage and process big data using the MapReduce programming model.

Economics of Education by M. Blaug Pdf

Economics of Education: A Selected Annotated Bibliography is an annotated bibliography of the economics of education. The criterion of selection is a simple one: whether the country or area study contributes to fundamental generalization about the economic aspects or economic role of education. The literature on developed countries is distinguished from that dealing with the developing nations. Comprised of 12 chapters, this volume begins with a list of topics for developed countries, including the economics and politics of education; educational planning; manpower forecasting; and social mobility and reserves of talent. The same topics are addressed in the second part for developing countries. The bibliography covers topics ranging from the theory of economic growth and the role of education in social change to the problems of labor and management in economic growth; the role of education in social and economic development; the economics of public education; and the economics of human resources. This book will be of interest to economists and educators.

New Developments in Behavioral Research: Theory, Method and Application by Barbara C. Etzel,Judith M. LeBlanc,Donald M. Baer Pdf

Originally published in 1977, these examples of research and scholarly argument were collected in honor of Professor Sidney W. Bijou. In the language of academics, they constitute a Festschrift: a festival of scholarly writing, performed to celebrate the career of a person who produced, and stimulated others to produce, exactly such contributions throughout a long, valuable, and productive professional history. Since 1955, Dr Bijou had worked almost exclusively within the approach variously labelled as the functional analysis of behavior, the experimental analysis of behavior, operant conditioning, or Skinnerian psychology. From his point of view, it seems clear, the first of these labels was the correct one. It was the principle of objective, direct, observable analysis that attracted him.
