Assessing and monitoring student progress in e-learning environments

E-learning has emerged as a form of pedagogy and as a delivery system with broad implications for meeting personnel needs nationally in special education. At present, it is important to make investments in research and development to ensure that this new pedagogy becomes fully developed and is appropriately applied. Assessment and monitoring of student progress in e-learning environments is an important element of this new form of pedagogy that requires research attention to maximize the effectiveness of e-learning when applied to teacher education. The authors draw upon their personal online teaching experience in addressing strategies for assessing student performance and using electronic portfolios in e-learning environments, both presented as integral aspects of e-learning instructional process. Perspectives from the literature and lessons learned from the authors’ own experience are shared.peerreviewe

Towards Open Resources Using Services (TORUS)

L'obiettivo del progetto TORUS è quello di creare sinergie tra le scienze ambientali e il cloud computing per il processing di big-Data, per la preparazione di futuri programmi di formazione, e di progetti di ricerca in collaborazione con aziende private. In particolare l'attività è rivolta al trasferimento delle competenze tecnologiche nel campo del cloud computing e del processing di Big-Data acquisiti nell'ambito della fisica sperimentale alle scienze ambientali

A new Time-of-flight detector for the R 3 B setup

© 2022, The Author(s).We present the design, prototype developments and test results of the new time-of-flight detector (ToFD) which is part of the R3B experimental setup at GSI and FAIR, Darmstadt, Germany. The ToFD detector is able to detect heavy-ion residues of all charges at relativistic energies with a relative energy precision σΔE/ ΔE of up to 1% and a time precision of up to 14 ps (sigma). Together with an elaborate particle-tracking system, the full identification of relativistic ions from hydrogen up to uranium in mass and nuclear charge is possible.11Nsciescopu
