Testing Equals Relevance in Technology Education
"... The current climate in education suggests that two items are sovereign in schools: assessment and accountability. The passage of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) required states to set up methods of assessment and accountability (NCLB, 2001). The president of the International Technology ..."

profession we need to acknowledge that in education today testing equals relevance. Therefore, in order to be recognized as a mainstream, significant field, we should push for state standardized tests in technology education. Assessment and Accountability Background According to Linn (2000) assessment
Cumulated Gain-based Evaluation of IR Techniques
- ACM Transactions on Information Systems
, 2002
"... Modem large retrieval environments tend to overwhelm their users by their large output. Since all documents are not of equal relevance to their users, highly relevant documents should be identified and ranked first for presentation to the users. In order to develop IR techniques to this direction, i ..."

Technological pedagogical content knowledge: A framework for integrating technology in teacher knowledge.
- Teachers College Record,
, 2006
"... Abstract This paper describes a framework for teacher knowledge for technology integration called technological pedagogical content knowledge (originally TPCK, now known as TPACK, or technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge). This framework builds on Lee Shulman's construct of pedagogical c ..."

technologies present to teachers. In our work, the word technology applies equally to analog and digital, as well as new and old, technologies. As a matter of practical significance, however, most of the technologies under consideration in current literature are newer and digital and have some inherent
Correlation-based feature selection for machine learning
, 1998
"... A central problem in machine learning is identifying a representative set of features from which to construct a classification model for a particular task. This thesis addresses the problem of feature selection for machine learning through a correlation based approach. The central hypothesis is that ..."

on artificial datasets showed that CFS quickly identifies and screens irrelevant, redundant, and noisy features, and identifies relevant features as long as their relevance does not strongly depend on other features. On natural domains, CFS typically eliminated well over half the features. In most cases
A theory of attention: Variations in the associability of stimuli with reinforcement
- Psychological Review
, 1975
"... According to theories of selective attention, learning about a stimulus de-pends on attending to that stimulus; this is represented in two-stage models by saying that subjects switch in analyzers as well as learning stimulus-response associations. This assumption, however, is equally well represente ..."

Developments in the Measurement of Subjective Well-Being
- Psychological Science.
, 1993
"... F or good reasons, economists have had a long-standing preference for studying peoples' revealed preferences; that is, looking at individuals' actual choices and decisions rather than their stated intentions or subjective reports of likes and dislikes. Yet people often make choices that b ..."

relevant feelings and experiences. While various measures of well-being are useful for some purposes, it is important to recognize that subjective well-being measures features of individuals' perceptions of their experiences, not their utility as economists typically conceive of it. Those perceptions
Nondeterministic Space is Closed Under Complementation
, 1988
"... this paper we show that nondeterministic space s(n) is closed under complementation, for s(n) greater than or equal to log n. It immediately follows that the context-sensitive languages are closed under complementation, thus settling a question raised by Kuroda in 1964 [9]. See Hartmanis and Hunt [4 ..."

Using the correct statistical test for the equality of regression coefficients. Criminology
, 1998
"... Criminologists are ofren interested in examining interactive effects within a regression context. For example, “holding other relevant fac-tors constant, is the effect of delinquent peers on one’s own delinquent conduct the same for males and females? ” or “is the effect of a given treatment program ..."

A comparison of classifiers and document representations for the routing problem

We consider three classification techniques which have decision rules that are derived via explicit error minimization: linear discriminant ..."

The Relevance Vector Machine Technique for Channel Equalization Application

It is demonstrated that the RVM equalizer can closely match the optimal performance of the Bayesian equalizer, with a much sparser kernel representation than that is achievable by the s ..."
