Determination of College Expectations in OECD Countries: The Role of Individual and Structural Factors

Renowned international experts in higher education financing have argued that, owing to large government deficits, tertiary education will not be able to open up and meet growing demand unless cost-sharing principles and efficient student financial aid programmes are introduced. Opponents of cost-sharing in higher education object that introducing tuition fees will raise inequality in access to higher education. Drawing on OECD data, and focusing on college expectations, the authors argue that the effects of ability, gender, and socio-economic background on college expectations are primarily shaped by the characteristics of secondary education systems, such as the degree of stratification and vocational specificity of secondary schools, while the principal characteristics of the tertiary education system, such as enrolment rates and the model of financing, play a much less important role. The results clearly show that, after controlling for the effects of secondary school system characteristics, cost-sharing, as such or by degree, does not affect the formation of college expectations by ability, gender, and socio-economic background as much as the selectivity of the secondary school system does

The Law Librarian\u27s Education and the Autonomous Library

I am concerned with a defense for the law library administrator who has been presented with serious arguments contradicting his beliefs that a law librarian\u27s education should include both law and librarianship, and, often in issue with it, that there are special aspects of law library administration which prevent its fitting neatly into a unified library system. The frequency with which the two beliefs are attacked simultaneously results from the fact that, salary scales being in issue, librarians object more heatedly to the added cost of legal training than do lawyers to the added cost of librarianship training; when they object to the point of blocking attempts of the lawyer administrators to obtain legally trained librarians, there often develops a struggle over who shall run the law library

Cost-efficiency assessment of Advanced Life Support (ALS) courses based on the comparison of advanced simulators with conventional manikins

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Simulation is an essential tool in modern medical education. The object of this study was to assess, in cost-effective measures, the introduction of new generation simulators in an adult life support (ALS) education program.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>Two hundred fifty primary care physicians and nurses were admitted to ten ALS courses (25 students per course). Students were distributed at random in two groups (125 each). Group A candidates were trained and tested with standard ALS manikins and Group B ones with new generation emergency and life support integrated simulator systems.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>In group A, 98 (78%) candidates passed the course, compared with 110 (88%) in group B (p < 0.01). The total cost of conventional courses was €7689 per course and the cost of the advanced simulator courses was €29034 per course (p < 0.001). Cost per passed student was €392 in group A and €1320 in group B (p < 0.001).</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>Although ALS advanced simulator systems may slightly increase the rate of students who pass the course, the cost-effectiveness of ALS courses with standard manikins is clearly superior.</p

3D scanner characterisation for Open Design

The 3D laser scanning technology has been reached by more and more users in the last years, thanks to a new market of low cost devices, more affordable for simple, non-professional use. The educational use is one of such environments, and its didactics purposes gives the opportunity to test new technology from a variety of different point of views. 3D laser scanning, for example, is very promising in environments like Design university education, where the control of the shape of an object is one of the topics discussed in courses, and one of the main focuses of the product design profession. This paper describes the use of this technology in students and research lab, and its metrological characterization, especially on the relationship between performances and object optical characteristics (like gloss and color), object position and ambient lighting. It is to keep in mind that, in a student lab, geometry reverse acquisition is one of the activities done to understand products layout: the knowledge of influences of surrounding and material characteristics on scanner performances is a key factor to improve the performance when low cost scanner are involved. The characterization performed gave the opportunity to students to test how such devices work, the output reliability, which are the inherent issues and what kind of strategies should be introduced to enhance the scanning quality, indeed one of the main problems of these low cost devices

Research of Proxy Cache Algorithm in Multi-media Education System

Multi-media education system is more and more widely used in all levels of education. In order to decrease cost of multi-media system and keep efficiency with increasing multi-media materials, proxy cache algorithm has been widely studied. Based on analysis of existing research of proxy cache results, an improved proxy coaching strategy of prefix cache and postfix merging is proposed. The strategy can dynamically adjust prefix cache size with the object access change. A more effective method of steaming merging has been proposed with multicast used in postfix portion. The results show that the improved strategy can effectively utilize proxy cache resource, shorten time delay and save band width

In the development phase of the system, firstly, motion simulation of the robotic arm was performed and then, experimental setup was established, and the performance of the system was tested by experimental studies. This system, which operates with a great success rate, has been made available for use within the scope of education. Regarding the use of the system for educational purposes, this kit supports theoretical lessons by reviewing object recognition (vision systems), forward - inverse kinematics, and trajectory planning (robot kinematics) and running the system several times. Thus, engineering students are expected to approach the industry more consciously and to develop the industry. It can also be used for training of relevant engineers in the institution where vision based robotic systems are available.Keywords: Education Kit, Stereo Vision, Robotic Arm, Object Recognition and Classification, Pick-and-Place Tas
