Teacher-Mediated and Student-Led Interaction with a Physics Simulation: Effects on the Learning Experience
Denis Gillet, Juan Carlos Farah
Computer simulations are often used as support material for science education, as they can engage students through inquiry-based learning, promote their active interaction in the experimentation phase, and help them visualize abstract concepts. For instanc ...
2024The Current State of the OBI DICT Project: A Bilingual e-Dictionary of Oracle-Bone Inscriptions with AI Image Recognition
This article reports on the current state of the OBI DICT project, a bilingual e-dictionary of oracle-bone inscriptions (OBI), incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) image recognition technology. It first provides a brief overview of the development of ...
Buro Van Die Wat2024Social Opinion Formation and Decision Making Under Communication Trends
Ali H. Sayed, Mert Kayaalp, Virginia Bordignon
This work studies the learning process over social networks under partial and random information sharing. In traditional social learning models, agents exchange full belief information with each other while trying to infer the true state of nature. We stud ...
Piscataway2024A Biohybrid Superorganism - Investigating honeybees' collective behaviors via interactive robotics
Social insects, such as ants, termites, and honeybees, have evolved sophisticated societies where the collaborative efforts of "simple" individuals can lead to the emergence of complex dynamics. The reliance of each organism on the collective is so great t ...
EPFL2024Enhancing Procedural Writing Through Personalized Example Retrieval: A Case Study on Cooking Recipes
Antoine Bosselut, Jibril Albachir Frej, Paola Mejia Domenzain, Luca Mouchel, Tatjana Nazaretsky, Seyed Parsa Neshaei, Thiemo Wambsganss
Writing high-quality procedural texts is a challenging task for many learners. While example-based learning has shown promise as a feedback approach, a limitation arises when all learners receive the same content without considering their individual input ...
2024How to support students to develop coaching and peer teaching skills
Siara Ruth Isaac, Joelyn de Lima
Students learn more when they are actively engaged in the learning process. While hands-on activities, labs and projects are moments when students are active, the learning benefits can be amplified with coaching strategies. This activity will enable studen ...
EPFL2024Quantifying the biomimicry gap in biohybrid robot-fish pairs
Francesco Mondada, Vaios Papaspyros
Biohybrid systems in which robotic lures interact with animals have become compelling tools for probing and identifying the mechanisms underlying collective animal behavior. One key challenge lies in the transfer of social interaction models from simulatio ...
2024Understanding and Enhancing Digital Wellbeing Dimensions: Empirical Studies on Smartphone Usage Patterns and Recommendations of Micro-Informative Content
Digital technology has become an integral part of our lives, offering various benefits from communication and entertainment to education and productivity. However, its pervasive use has also raised concerns about its potential negative impact on users' wel ...
EPFL2024GELEX: Generative AI-Hybrid System for Example-Based Learning
Jibril Albachir Frej, Aybars Yazici
Traditional example-based learning methods are often limited by static, expert-created content. Hence, they face challenges in scalability, engagement, and effectiveness, as some learners might struggle to relate to the examples or find them relevant. To a ...
Association for Computing Machinery2024Designing for Intimate Wellbeing: Aidee, a Qualitative Approach To Urine Home Monitoring
Delphine Ribes Lemay, Nicolas Henchoz, Emily Clare Groves, Margherita Motta
Despite the widespread use of self-tracking technologies for promoting personal wellbeing, there is limited research on the monitoring of intimate data, particularly urine. To shed light on the design possibilities within this unexplored domain we designed ...
