Learning about Dynamic Problems with Computer Simulators: A Case of System Dynamics Simulation Models
2008
A vast body of research shows that people by and large fail to understand and manage dynamic environments. Given the increasing complexity of our world, there is an urgent need to develop more effective ways to present dynamic problems. Many studies propose computer simulators as virtual learning environments to help people understand and manage complex problems. Still, experimental data show that simulators often carry problems from reality into the virtual laboratory. An analysis from the perspective of cognitive load theory suggests that learning about complex problems could be improved by enhancing descriptions with simulation elements that would facilitate interactive exploration of th…
Recursos tecnológicos y actividades no presenciales para un mejor aprendizaje de la Estadística Actuarial
2010
En este artículo se describe el diseño y los resultados obtenidos con una estrategia didáctica innovadora para el aprendizaje de la Estadística Actuarial en la licenciatura de Ciencias Actuariales y Financieras de la Universidad de Málaga. Mediante un uso intensivo de actividades no presenciales y elementos tecnológicos que favorecen el aprendizaje en movilidad se pretende potenciar el aprendizaje autónomo, colaborativo y contextualizado. Para ello se han diseñado, entre otras, actividades de identificación y asimilación de competencias, un laboratorio virtual de supervivencia basado en un simulador gráfico interactivo y un microportal para dispositivos iPhone y iPod touch de Apple.
The microcybergames and the learning of the Social Sciences: The java world
2003
The possibilities and didactic limitations of the computer games stand out. The utility of the microcybergames in the educative surrounings of Internet is put of relief. In Java, the designs of the microcybergames are studied, emphasizing the advantages of predesigned applet over the ones generated by some author created tools. A selection of flexible and gratuitous applet with possible didactic use is made. Examples of applications of these applets in proper contents of Social Sciences in the no university curricula are incorporated.
ProstateAnalyzer: web-based medical application for the management of prostate cancer using multiparametric MR imaging
2016
Objectives: In this paper, we present ProstateAnalyzer, a new web-based medical tool for prostate cancer diagnosis. ProstateAnalyzer allows the visualization and analysis of magnetic resonance images (MRI) in a single framework. Methods: ProstateAnalyzer recovers the data from a PACS server and displays all the associated MRI images in the same framework, usually consisting of 3D T2-weighted imaging for anatomy, dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI for perfusion, diffusion-weighted imaging in the form of an apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map and MR Spectroscopy. ProstateAnalyzer allows annotating regions of interest in a sequence and propagates them to the others. Results: From a representat…
