Self-determination and persistence in a real-life setting: Toward a motivational model of high school dropout.
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
, 1997
"... The purpose of this study was to propose and test a motivational model of high school dropout. The model posits that teachers, parents, and the school administration's behaviors toward students influence students' perceptions of competence and autonomy. The less autonomy supportive the so ..."

Outcomes and Mechanisms of Transfer in Invention Activities
"... Invention activities are structured tasks in which students create mathematical methods that attempt to capture deep properties of data (e.g., variability), prior to receiving instruction on canonical methods (e.g., mean deviation). While experiments have demonstrated the learning benefits of invent ..."

Learning negotiation skills: four models of knowledge creation and transfer
- Management Science
, 2003
"... Our review of the learning and training literature revealed four common methods fortraining people to be more effective negotiators: didactic learning, learning via infor-mation revelation, analogical learning, and observational learning. We tested each of these methods experimentally in an experien ..."

in an experiential context and found that observational learning and analogical learning led to negotiated outcomes that were more favorable for both parties, compared to a baseline condition of learning through experience alone. Information revela-tion and didactic learning were not significantly different from any
Modelling Undergraduate Engineering Outcomes
- 3.00+0.00 Printed in Great Britain. # 2001 Tempus
, 2002
"... An outcome assessment objective is the ability to track students from the point that they enter their engineering program through graduation. By monitoring student progress, faculty can best assure that the desired outcomes are being met and, where they are not, introduce improvementsÐthis is the c ..."

that influence outcome achievement. The model is based on the assumption that the educational processes a student experiences (i.e. curriculum, in-class instruction, work or research experience, etc.) are related to the graduate's obtainment of certain engineering knowledge, skills, and attitudes (i.e. EC
Teacher study group: Impact of the professional development model on reading instruction and student outcomes in first grade classrooms
- American Educational Research Journal
, 2010
"... Randomized field trials were used to examine the impact of the Teacher Study Group (TSG), a professional development model, on first grade teachers ’ read-ing comprehension and vocabulary instruction, their knowledge of these areas, and the comprehension and vocabulary achievement of their students. ..."

Modeling and Evaluating the Scalability of Instruction Fetching in Superscalar Processors
"... Scalability is important in superscalar processors design. A superscalar processor is said to be linearly scalable if with linear increase in load or demand, performance remains constant relative to linear increase in resources. In this paper, for evaluating the instruction fetching scalability, an ..."

. Our simulation results strongly suggest that reducing branch misprediction penalty is a better alternative solution – compared with increasing prediction accuracy – for improving instruction fetch scalability. 1. Summary and future work In this paper, we composed an analytical model for evaluating

Protocol guided bleeding management improves cardiac surgery patient outcomes
, 2015
"... Background and Objectives Excessive bleeding is a risk associated with cardiac surgery. Treatment invariably requires transfusion of blood products; however, the transfusion itself may contribute to postoperative sequelae. Our objective was to analyse a quality initiative designed to provide an evi ..."

Integrating Human Instructions and Reinforcement Learners: An SRL Approach
"... As robots and other intelligent systems move out from tailored environments and enter the real world they would have to adapt quickly and learn from their surroundings. Like hu-mans, they would have to learn from various sources- experience, peers, teachers, trial-and-error etc. In earlier work, we ..."

Abstract: Patient-related outcomes measures could provide important information for the current state of the art in medical care and even have an impact on macrodecisions in the health care system. Patient-related outcomes were initially defined as subjective health indicators that allow disability ..."

. This publication presents a methodology for developing patient-related outcomes measures, based on a multistage procedure. The proper definition of specific study objectives and the methodology of instrument development are crucial for successfully transferring the study concept. The model of instrument
