TEACHER’S ATTITUDE TOWARDS UTILISING FUTURE GADGETS IN EDUCATION ijcax
Today’s era is an era of modernization and globalization. Everything is happening at a very fast rate whether it is politics, societal reforms, commercialization, transportation, or educational innovations. In every few second, technology grows either in the form of arrival of the new devices/gadgets with millions of apps and these latest technological objects may be in the form of hardware/software devices. We are the
educationists, teachers, students and stakeholders of present Indian educational system. These gadgets/devices are partly being used by us or most of them are still unaware of these innovative technologies due to the mass media or economical factor. So, there is a need to improvise ourselves towards utilizing the future gadgets in order to explore the educational uses, barriers and preparatoryneeds of these available devices for educational purposes. This paper aims to study the opinion of the teacher-educators about the usage of future gadgets in higher education. It will also contribute towards establishing the list of latest technological devices, and how it can enhances the process of teachinglearning system.

The power of learning analytics for UCL: lessons learned from the Open Univer...Bart Rienties
Across the globe many institutions and organisations have high hopes that learning analytics can play a major role in helping their organisations remain fit-for-purpose, flexible, and innovative. Learning analytics applications in education are expected to provide institutions with opportunities to support learner progression, but more importantly in the near future provide personalised, rich learning on a large scale. In this seminar, we will discuss lessons learned from various learning analytics applications at the OU.
Global experiences with e-learning and dataBart Rienties
Pedagogically informed designs of learning are increasingly of interest to researchers in blended and online learning, as learning design is shown to have an impact on student behaviour and outcomes. Although learning design is widely studied, often these studies are individual courses or programmes and few empirical studies have connected learning designs of a substantial number of courses with learning behaviour. In this study we linked 151 modules and 111.256 students with students' behaviour (<400 million minutes of online behaviour), satisfaction and performance at the Open University UK using multiple regression models. Our findings strongly indicate the importance of learning design in predicting and understanding Virtual Learning Environment behaviour and performance of students in blended and online environments. In line with proponents of social learning theories, our primary predictor for academic retention was the time learners spent on communication activities, controlling for various institutional and disciplinary factors. Where possible, appropriate and well designed communication tasks that align with the learning objectives of the course may be a way forward to enhance academic retention.

Across the globe many institutions and organisations have high hopes that learning analytics can play a major role in helping their organisations remain fit-for-purpose, flexible, and innovative. According to Tempelaar, Rienties, and Giesbers (2015, p. 158) “a broad goal of learning analytics is to apply the outcomes of analysing data gathered by monitoring and measuring the learning process”. Learning analytics applications in education are expected to provide institutions with opportunities to support learner progression, but more importantly in the near future provide personalised, rich learning on a large scale (Rienties, Cross, & Zdrahal, 2016; Tempelaar et al., 2015; Tobarra, Robles-Gómez, Ros, Hernández, & Caminero, 2014).
Increased availability of large datasets (Arbaugh, 2014), powerful analytics engines (Tobarra et al., 2014), and skilfully designed visualisations of analytics results (González-Torres, García-Peñalvo, & Therón, 2013) mean that institutions may now be able to use the experience of the past to create supportive, insightful models of primary (and even real-time) learning processes (Arnold & Pistilli, 2012; Ferguson & Buckingham Shum, 2012; Papamitsiou & Economides, 2014). Substantial progress in learning analytics research relating to identifying at-risk students has been made in the last few years using a range of advanced computational techniques (e.g., Bayesian modelling, cluster analysis, natural language processing, machine learning, predictive modelling, social network analysis).
In this EARLI SIG17 keynote, I will argue that one of the largest challenges for learning analytics and wider educational research still lies ahead of us, and that one substantial and immediate challenge is how to put the power of learning analytics into the hands of researchers, teachers and administrators. While an increasing body of literature has become available regarding how institutions have experimented with small-scale interventions (Papamitsiou & Economides, 2014), to the best of our knowledge no comprehensive conceptual model, nested within a strong evidence-base, is available that describes how researchers, teachers and administrators can use learning analytics to make successful interventions in their own practice. In this keynote, I will use the development of a foundation of an Analytics4Action Evaluation Framework (A4AEF) that is being currently tested and validated at the largest university in Europe (in terms of enrolled learners), namely the UK Open University (OU, Calvert, 2014), as an example of the complexity of different, interlinked methodological and conceptual approaches.

This study investigated the effects computer-assisted instruction in collaboration with conventional instruction method would have on secondary school students’ academic achievement in government as a subject. One null hypothesis was formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. The instrument for data collection was a-25 item teacher made Government Achievement Test which was validated and reliability index of 0.86 established. The post-test only experimental design was adopted. A purposive sample of 100 senior secondary students which was divided into two groups-the experimental group and control group with each group consisting of 50 students was investigated.
Each of the two groups was taught government for eight weeks using CAI programmed packages for the experimental group and conventional instruction method for the control group. At the end of the eighth week, post-test was administered on the students to determine difference in academic achievement if any,between the two groups. Using means and t-test in analyzing the data, the result showed that, students taught government using computer-assisted instruction significantly performed better than students taught government using conventional instruction method. The study recommended among others that,government should not hesitate to fully introduce and implement computer-assisted instruction in Nigerian secondary schools to enhance quality learning and teaching of government as a subject and all other
The power of learning analytics to measure learning gains: an OU, Surrey and ...Bart Rienties
Learning gains has increasingly become apparent within the HE literature, gained traction in government policies in the UK, and are at the heart of Teaching Excellence Framework (TFL). As such, this raises a question to what extent teaching and learning environment can actually predict students’ learning gains using principles of learning analytics. In this presentation, which is joined work with University of Surrey and Oxford Brookes, I will focus on some preliminary findings based upon developing and testing an Affective-Behaviour-Cognition learning gains model using longitudinal approach. The main aim of the research is to examine whether learning gains occur on all three levels of Affective-Behaviour-Cognition model and whether any particular student or course characteristics can predict learning gains or lack of learning and dropout.

This study aims to produce an Edmodo-based e-learning development product in mathematics class V at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Primary School and to know the feasibility and effectiveness of the developed Edmodo-based e-learning media. This study uses a Research and Development (R&D) approach with ADDIE model where each stage is interconnected and in stages in producing development products. The research subjects in this study are the design, media, learning material experts, the teacher, and the students. The hypothesis proposed of this study is that the development media products on Edmodo-based e-learning are feasible and effective for use in the learning process of mathematics. The data is collected through questionnaire by research subject assessment instrument and posttest from learning outcome instrument. The feasibility of the media is obtained through the validation and testing by research subjects where the average percentage of the results of the assessment of design, media, and learning material experts is 89.3%, while the average percentage of the results of teacher and student assessments in the trial of individual and groups of students is 90.5% who fall into the “Very Appropriate” category. The product effectiveness test from the learning outcome test data on the research hypothesis test through one-party test obtained tcount > ttable (2.3798 > 1.66980), which means that students’ mathematics learning outcomes with Edmodo-based e-learning were higher than students who studied conventional truth-tested. Thus development media products on Edmodo-based e-learning are feasible and effective for use in the learning process and can improve student learning outcomes compared to conventional learning.

A MOBILE DISASTER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING THE ANDROID TECHNOLOGYAM Publications
The numbers countries in the world vulnerable to natural hazards because of its geographic location. It
also lacks an efficient disaster management system that will help in times of need. One common scenario during
disasters is that the activity of rescue and relief is not well-coordinated. For this reason, there is a need for a system
that will help in the efficient provision of rescue and relief to disaster-affected areas. Since the use of smart phones is
gaining interest in people, the disaster management system was implemented as a smart phone application using
Google’s Android operating system. The disaster management system Android application known as MyDisasterDroid
determines the optimum route along different geographical locations that the volunteers and rescuers need to take in
order to serve the most number of people and provide maximum coverage of the area in the shortest possible time.
Genetic algorithm was applied for optimization and different parameters were varied to determine the most optimum
route.

A MOBILE DISASTER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING THE ANDROID TECHNOLOGYAM Publications
The numbers countries in the world vulnerable to natural hazards because of its geographic location. It
also lacks an efficient disaster management system that will help in times of need. One common scenario during
disasters is that the activity of rescue and relief is not well-coordinated. For this reason, there is a need for a system
that will help in the efficient provision of rescue and relief to disaster-affected areas. Since the use of smart phones is
gaining interest in people, the disaster management system was implemented as a smart phone application using
Google’s Android operating system. The disaster management system Android application known as MyDisasterDroid
determines the optimum route along different geographical locations that the volunteers and rescuers need to take in
order to serve the most number of people and provide maximum coverage of the area in the shortest possible time.
Genetic algorithm was applied for optimization and different parameters were varied to determine the most optimum
route.

Development of Indonesian National Qualification Framework-Based teaching mod...IJAEMSJORNAL
The learning model developed in this study is a whole series of presentation of teaching material that covers all aspects before being and after learning conducted by lecturers by including teaching materials in the teaching and learning process. The learning model developed is called QI MODELS with the syntax: Goals, Observation, Project, Discussion, Task, Practice, Meaningful, Justification, and Evaluation. Teaching material contains a set of material from the course "Instructional Media Design" that is arranged systematically so that lecturers and students can use it in the learning process in an atmosphere and a comfortable environment for learning. To see the effectiveness of the product an analysis of the learning outcomes of the 26 students taught using the Instructional Media Design textbook developed, and compared with the learning outcomes of students in the class taught with presentation material. Based on the analysis, the average value of basic competencies using instructional materials for Indonesian National Qualification Framework (INQF)-based Instructional Media Design is higher than the average value of students who use presentation materials. Testing the hypothesis used is a different test. From the calculation results obtained tcount = 7.63 while ttable = 2.01. Because tcount = 7.63>ttable = 2.01, it was concluded that there was a significant difference in students' learning achievement using Instructional Media Design textbooks and using presentation material. The effectiveness of the use of Instructional Media Design textbooks is 79.09%.
Individual differences are important for the learning environments so that it can be said that learning environments that are designed by using adaptation techniques are effective in improving the performance level of students. In this study a flipped classroom model was developed for elementary school students by using adaptivetechniques in English lectures. In this way advantageous and strong aspects of adaptive and flipped learning complete each other. In the research, two different flipped learning environments were developed. The flipped learning environment was designed without adaptations and with adaptations. The students worked for a period of ten weeks in the designed environments. The aim of the study is to show the benefits of adaptive technologies for flipped learning environments. In total 60 students from Libya were selected randomly then placed in adaptive flipped learning and Flipped learning environments. T-test was used in the substance analysis performed for knowledge test. Based on the findings obtained from the success rates of the students displayed on tests, administered as a pre and post test, it was demonstrated that adaptability of the flipped learning environment and levels of the adaptability have a positive effect on the academic achievement rates of the English lecture students.

Note-Taking, Note-making and Note-reviewing can improve
the retention skills of my learners and whether these retention
skills can be later used by them to recall the retained–
information. I tried to measure these retention skills by using
customized retention tests to observe the resulted pattern. The
research question that guided my study was ―How efficiently
the Notes-Taking, Notes-Making and Notes-Reviewing can
improve the short term retention of lecture-information for
the learners in Higher Education at lower level of academic
program (Interior design) with respect to free recall, accuracy
and comprehension type of questions ?‖. This qualitative
research uses Primary data collected from 22 students.
Harmonious to some of the studies in the past, this study
reaffirmed the importance and vital impact of Notes taking
and reviewing on the short term retention of received
information. In addition a pattern was revealed that Notes
making enhances comprehension skills and notes reviewing
enhances accuracy skills.

PEDESTRIAN DETECTION IN LOW RESOLUTION VIDEOS USING A MULTI-FRAME HOG-BASED D...AM Publications
Detecting pedestrians in low resolution videos is a challenging task, due to the small size of pedestrians in the images and the limited information. In practical outdoor surveillance scenarios the pedestrian size is usually small. Existing state-of-the-art pedestrian detection methods that use histogram of oriented gradient (HOG) features have poor performance in this problem domain. To compensate for the lack of information in a single frame, we propose a novel detection method that recognizes pedestrians in a short sequence of frames. Namely, we take the single-frame HOG-based detector and extend it to multiple frames. Our detector is applied to regions containing potential moving objects. In the case of video taken from a moving camera on an aerial platform, video stabilization is first performed to register the frames. A classifier is then applied to features extracted from spatio-temporal volumes surrounding the potential moving objects. On challenging stationary and aerial video datasets, our detection accuracy outperforms several state-of-the-art algorithms.

EFFECT OF SILICON - RUBBER (SR) SHEETS AS AN ALTERNATIVE FILTER ON HIGH AND L...AM Publications
A digital radiography delivers a radiation dose to patients; therefore it poses potential risk to the patients. One effort to reduce dose is carried out using a radiation filter, e.g. Silicone Rubber (SR) sheet. The purpose of this research was to determine the impact of the SR sheet on the high contrast objects (HCO) and the low contrast objects (LCO). The dose reduction was determined from attenuation x-rays before and after using the SR sheet. Assessment of HCO and LCO was observed from CDR TOR phantom at tube voltage of 48 kVp and tube current of 8 mAs. The physical parameter to assess image quality was the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) value in LCO. The maximum x-ray attenuation using the SR sheet is 48.82%. The visibility of the HCO remains the same, namely 16 objects; however the LCO slighly decreases from 14 objects to 13 objects after using the SR sheet. The SNR value decreases with an average value of 15.17%.Therefore, the SR sheet as a alternative filter has no effect on the HCO and has realtively little effect on the LCO. Thus, the SR sheet potentially is used for radiation protection in patients, especially on examinations that do not require low contrast resolution.

ANALYSIS ON LOAD BALANCING ALGORITHMS IMPLEMENTATION ON CLOUD COMPUTING ENVIR...AM Publications
Cloud computing means storing and accessing data and programs over the Internet instead of your computer's hard drive. The cloud is just a metaphor for the Internet. The elements involved in cloud computing are clients, data center and distributed server. One of the main problems in cloud computing is load balancing. Balancing the load means to distribute the workload among several nodes evenly so that no single node will be overloaded. Load can be of any type that is it can be CPU load, memory capacity or network load. In this paper we presented an architecture of load balancing and algorithm which will further improve the load balancing problem by minimizing the response time. In this paper, we have proposed the enhanced version of existing regulated load balancing approach for cloud computing by comping the Randomization and greedy load balancing algorithm. To check the performance of proposed approach, we have used the cloud analyst simulator (Cloud Analyst). Through simulation analysis, it has been found that proposed improved version of regulated load balancing approach has shown better performance in terms of cost, response time and data processing time.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.
