Dr. Wolfgang Greller and Dr. Hendrik Drachsler defined learning analytics holistically as a framework. They proposed that it is a generic design framework that can act as a useful guide for setting up analytics services in support of educational practice and learner guidance, in quality assurance, curriculum development, and in improving teacher effectiveness and efficiency.
Catalysis. An air filter that uses a low-temperature oxidation catalyst to convert carbon monoxide to less toxic carbon dioxide at room temperature. It can also remove formaldehyde from the air. Catalysis (/ kəˈtæləsɪs /) is the increase in rate of a chemical reaction due to an added substance known as a catalyst[1][2] (/ ˈkætəlɪst /).
Eric Mazur (born November 14, 1954) is a physicist and educator at Harvard University, [1] and an entrepreneur in technology start-ups for the educational and technology markets. [2][3] Mazur's research is in experimental ultrafast optics, condensed matter physics and peer instruction. [4][5] Born in Amsterdam, Netherlands, he received his ...
e. Catallactics is a theory of the way the free market system reaches exchange ratios and prices. [1][2][3][4] It aims to analyse all actions based on monetary calculation and trace the formation of prices back to the point where an agent makes his or her choices. [5] It explains prices as they are, rather than as they "should" be.
The catalytic cycle is the main method for describing the role of catalysts in biochemistry, organometallic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, materials science, etc. Since catalysts are regenerated, catalytic cycles are usually written as a sequence of chemical reactions in the form of a loop. In such loops, the initial step entails binding of ...
Catalytic oxidation. Catalytic oxidation are processes that rely on catalysts to introduce oxygen into organic and inorganic compounds. Many applications, including the focus of this article, involve oxidation by oxygen. Such processes are conducted on a large scale for the remediation of pollutants, production of valuable chemicals, and the ...
The psychology of learning refers to theories and research on how individuals learn. There are many theories of learning. Some take on a more behaviorist approach which focuses on inputs and reinforcements. [1][2][3] Other approaches, such as neuroscience and social cognition, focus more on how the brain's organization and structure influence ...
Learning styles. Learning styles refer to a range of theories that aim to account for differences in individuals' learning. [1] Although there is ample evidence that individuals express personal preferences on how they prefer to receive information, [2]: 108 few studies have found validity in using learning styles in education. [3]: 267 Many ...
