  1. 16. A CROSS-COUNTRY STUDY ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF INQUIRY-BASED AND TRADITIONAL DIDACTIC APPROACHES

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för pedagogik och specialpedagogik

    Author : Kadir Isik; [2020-09-10]
    Keywords : Inquiry-based approach; traditional didactic approach; science instruction;

    Abstract : Aim : In past decades, teacher practices in science teaching have changed from perceived traditional ways of teaching to more inquiry-based approaches. The driving force behind this change is the assumption of inquiry-based approach being more effective in terms of student science achievement than the traditional didactic approach. READ MORE

  3. 17. Thermodynamical properties of cellular automata

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Luca Bertolani; [2020]
    Keywords : Thermodynamics; Statistical; Mechanics; Cellular; automata; chaos; complex; matrix; computational; mathematical; 2d; two; dimensional; program; code; python; ising; teaching; ideal; gas; partition; function; equilibrium; non-equilibrium; classification; neighbourhood; local; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Cellular automata are a set of discrete computational models whose evolution is defined by neighbourhood rules and are used to simulate many complex systems in physics and science. In this work, statistical mechanics and thermodynamics in and out of equilibrium are used to develop a five-class classification scheme for two-dimensional cellular automata. READ MORE

  4. 18. Hope as a generative force : a form of hope to be nurtured by academic institutions to foster proactive engagement among university students

    University essay from Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

  5. 19. A Model for Evaluating the Effectiveness of an Undergraduate Curriculum in Teaching Software Code Quality

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Paromita Banik; [2020]
    Keywords : software code; code characteristics; code quality; undergraduate curriculum; mjukvarukod; kodegenskaper; kodkvalitet; grundutbildning;

    Abstract : Developers build an entire software by writing quality code, the failure of which can risk organizational reputation, financial wellbeing, and even the lives and security of people. The ability to develop high quality code is therefore a key learning goal of foundational undergraduate computing programmes. READ MORE
