Prediction of Sport Participation Motivation among Male Adolescent Students in School Physical Education Classes Based on Basic Psychological Needs and Social Responsibility

The aim of this study was to predict the sport participation motivation of male adolescent students in school physical education classes based on basic psychological needs and social responsibility. The research method was a correlational s...

Burnout, Resilience and Self-Esteem in School Teaching University Students

Burnout syndrome seems to involve fatigue that is characterised by loss of motivation, lack of energy, and some apathy as a consequence of continued exposure to stress in demanding performance circumstances. Background: The goal of the pres...

Integrating clinical and public health knowledge in support of joint medical practice

Abstract Background Strong relations between medicine and public health have long been advocated. Today, professional medical practice assumes joint clinical/public health objectives: GPs are expected to practice community medicine; Hospita...

probabilistic robotics

Field Robot Event is an annual competition for small field robots intended for student teams. Field Robot project has been seen as a motivating challenge for project-based learning as it results to a working prototype. In Finland the team h...

Developmental Robotics

A comprehensive overview of an interdisciplinary approach to robotics that takes direct inspiration from the developmental and learning phenomena observed in children's cognitive development. Developmental robotics is a collaborative and in...

The Effect of Robotics and Coding Education on Girls’ STEM Motivation, Attitude and Career Aspirations

STEM education aims to develop 21st-century skills, support economic growth and promote gender equality in STEM fields. It is known that gender stereotypes play a significant role in the formation of STEM identity. The most important factor...

Developmental robotics: a survey

Developmental robotics is an emerging field located at the intersection of robotics, cognitive science and developmental sciences. This paper elucidates the main reasons and key motivations behind the convergence of fields with seemingly di...

QUANTUM DISCORD AND QUANTUM COMPUTING — AN APPRAISAL

We discuss models of computing that are beyond classical. The primary motivation is to unearth the cause of non-classical advantages in computation. Completeness results from computational complexity theory lead to the identification of ver...

Mathematics of topological quantum computing

In topological quantum computing, information is encoded in “knotted” quantum states of topological phases of matter, thus being locked into topology to prevent decay. Topological precision has been confirmed in quantum Hall liquids by expe...

Cybersecurity and cyberwar: what everyone needs to know

1. Why cyberspace is wonderfulEL and complicated What is cyberspace? Why do people talk about the difference of a networked world? How does the Internet actually work? Who owns this thing? WaitEL You mean no one runs the internet? What can ...

Leveraging human factors in cybersecurity: an integrated methodological approach

Computer and Information Security (CIS) is usually approached adopting a technology-centric viewpoint, where the human components of sociotechnical systems are generally considered as their weakest part, with little consideration for the en...

Forecasting student achievement in MOOCs with natural language processing

Student intention and motivation are among the strongest predictors of persistence and completion in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), but these factors are typically measured through fixed-response items that constrain student expressio...

Memristor devices for neural networks

Abstract Neural network technologies have taken center stage owing to their powerful computing capability for supporting deep learning in artificial intelligence. However, conventional synaptic devices such as SRAM and DRAM are not satisfac...

Capturing student interest in software engineering through gamification: a systematic literature review

Abstract ICT tools in education are widely used to support the aim of achieving learning outcomes by improving critical areas such as student engagement, participation, and motivation. In this study, we examine literature to explore how gam...
