It aims to compare the learning outcomes in terms of student interest in Martial Arts, cooperative learning abilities in sports, and independent learning abilities. The goal is to explore the feasibility and effectiveness of the online and offline blended teaching mode in university Martial Arts instruction. The result showed that compared to traditional teaching methods, the implementation of blended learning based on online teaching platforms complements students' interest in learning martial arts, as well as their ability to learn independently and collaboratively. With the implementation of personalized learning, interest has increased, and the abilities to learn independently and through hands-on learning have been cultivated, resulting in improved satisfaction.

Convex Temporal Convolutional Network-Based Distributed Cooperative Learning Control for Multiagent Systems.

Due to its great efficiency, scalability, and inclusivity, distributed cooperative learning control has gotten a lot of attention. For complex uncertain multiagent systems, it is challenging to model the uncertainties and exploit the cooperative learning ability of the systems. To address these issues, we proposed a novel convex temporal convolutional network-based distributed cooperative learning control for uncertain discrete-time nonlinear multiagent systems. A new concept of using a convex temporal convolutional network (CTCNet) is proposed for estimating the uncertain agent dynamics in a cooperative way. Unlike previous methods that require adjustment of network weights for different control tasks, the proposed CTCNet can map the high-dimensional input-output space into a deep space spanned by basis features that represent the inherent properties of the system, so it has good robustness for different tasks. Consequently, to improve the control performance, a CTCNet-based distributed cooperative learning control method that shares learned knowledge through the communication topology among adaptive laws of CTCNet is proposed. Furthermore, the asymptotic convergence of system tracking errors to an arbitrarily small neighborhood of the origin is strictly proved. Finally, the simulation results are given to illustrate that our suggested method has higher control accuracy, stronger robustness, and anti-interference ability than the existing methods.

Assessing students’ peer feedback literacy in writing: scale development and validation

Peer feedback activities are characterized by peers performing both roles of feedback provider and receiver, and peers are found to benefit from both roles. However, in current feedback literacy studies, the emphasis has been overwhelmingly given to students’ understandings, capacities and dispositions in receiving feedback, and existing student feedback literacy scales measure only the receiving side of feedback literacy. Students learn from providing and what they provide fundamentally shapes what others receive. This study conceptualizes peer feedback literacy as students’ capacities and attitudes in providing and receiving peer feedback, and developed and validated a peer feedback literacy scale on the basis of responses from 474 Chinese university students. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted, and four factors emerged: feedback-related knowledge and abilities, cooperative learning ability, appreciation of peer feedback, and willingness to participate. The resulting scale showed good psychometric properties and revealed some surprising associations with student major, year and amount of prior experience.

Construction of Teaching and Education Quality Improvement Model Based on Distributed Information Fusion

Following the growth of educational informatization, the integrated adoption of the Internet in classroom teaching has facilitated the change of instructional pattern from the conventional instructional pattern to a novel information-based instructional pattern. Based on the background of “Internet+,” a variety of new information-based classroom teaching models have emerged. However, in practice, there are still many deficiencies due to the immature application of the model. This paper proposes to use the design-based research paradigm to construct and optimize the teaching mode, and to clarify the design principles of the teaching mode. This paper analyses and designs the English lesson instruction pattern in the distributed information convergence condition from five dimensions: theoretical foundation, online instructional setting, instructional targets, instructional events, and instructional assessment, which construct an instructional pattern. It adopts the method of combining quantitative research with qualitative research and combines the experimental method, questionnaire survey method, classroom observation method, and interview method to assist the research. Through the investigation of 122 valid data, it is shown that the overall amount of classroom codes before the experiment is 57, and the overall amount of classroom codes after the experiment is 150. There is a big difference between the two. It validates the effectiveness of the English lesson instruction pattern in distributed information integration terms in improving students’ English achievement, cooperative learning ability, information literacy, and problem-solving ability.

Remote Human-Computer Interaction and STEM Teacher Online Training Based on Embedded Internet of Things

In order to expand the concept and form of teacher training, a remote human-computer interaction and STEM teacher online training platform based on the embedded Internet of Things is proposed. Based on the content analysis method, this article sorts out the development status of the current online teacher training platform and points out the shortcomings of the platform in information aggregation, resource construction, content setting, presentation, learning support services, and other aspects. Based on the combination of new concepts and new technologies, an online training platform for STEM teachers is proposed for the construction of the platform from four perspectives: innovative design concepts, enriching platform promotion ideas, developing educational makers, and improving support services, and the results of the use are investigated. The results show that the subjects believe that the STEM teacher online training system has clarified the STEM curriculum design steps, standardized STEM design methods, improved their cooperative learning ability, and cultivated design thinking. Among them, 13 people think that the training system has made STEM design steps clearer, “the design process is clearer,” “it makes me clearer about the whole design process,” and “the course design and development process is clearer.” Conclusion. This platform can provide a reference for online training and professional development of Chinese teachers.

Influence of Hybrid Pedagogical Models on Learning Outcomes in Physical Education: A Systematic Literature Review.

Hybrid implementation of pedagogical models (PMs) helps to overcome the limitations of a single pedagogical model (PM) when it comes to improving student learning outcomes in physical education (PE). Empirical research on hybridizations has grown substantially in recent years, so the purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic review on the effects and mechanisms of different hybridizations on students’ learning outcomes (i.e., motor, cognitive, affective, and social) in PE. Electronic databases, including ERIC, SCOPUS, EBSCO host, and Web of Science, were used to select intervention studies. After inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, 17 high-quality studies, published in English peer-reviewed journals, were assessed. Results show that there were seven different hybrid models having impacts on students’ learning outcomes, which could be divided into four categories: (1) game performance and technical skills; (2) understanding of tactics and decision-making abilities; (3) motivation, autonomy, and confidence; (4) interpersonal skills, cooperative learning ability, and responsibility. Length of implementation and teachers’ familiarity were the main factors that limit the implementation on hybridizations. Future research should consider quasi-experiments with control groups of hybrids versus single models to figure out the advantages of the hybrid model over the single model; including more evidence from different schools, regions, and countries is necessary.

Learning Behaviors and Cognitive Participation in Online-Offline Hybrid Learning Environment

Hybrid learning, which integrates online teaching and offline teaching, can promote the autonomous learning ability, cooperative learning ability, and personalized development of students. Whether online learning or offline learning, the learning quality hinges on the good learning behaviors and learning participation. The existing studies have paid little attention to the learning behaviors in various dimensions. As a result, there is no scientific criterion for quantifying students’ cognitive participation. This paper explores learning behaviors and cognitive participation in online-offline hybrid learning environment. Firstly, the authors provided the clustering algorithm and dimensionality reduction algorithm for learning behavior analysis under the hybrid learning environment. Then, the student cognitive participation was modeled, and the dynamic cognitive participation degree in each learning dimension was weighted through partial correlation analysis. The proposed model was proved effective through experiments.

Research and practice of flipped classroom teaching mode based on guidance case

This paper chooses 144 students as subjects to conduct a flipped classroom experiment teaching. The results show that before the experiment students from the experimental class and control class universally lack English learning interest, have no habit of preparing lessons before class and are short of consciousness of autonomous learning. However, after the experiment, it is found that score of the experimental class is significantly higher than that of the control class. Furthermore, students’ learning attitude, interest and habit, autonomous learning ability, cooperative learning consciousness and degree of satisfaction for learning English in the experimental class are higher than those of the control class. Therefore, it suggests that the flipped classroom teaching mode can effectively stimulate students’ interest in learning English, develop their autonomous and cooperative learning abilities, enhance their English learning proficiency and influence the development of English learning attitude and habit actively.

Discrete pigeon-inspired optimization algorithm with Metropolis acceptance criterion for large-scale traveling salesman problem

Abstract Pigeon-inspired optimization (PIO) algorithm, which is a newly proposed swarm intelligence algorithm, has been mainly applied to continuous optimization problems. In this paper, a discrete PIO (DPIO) algorithm, which uses the Metropolis acceptance criterion of simulated annealing algorithm, is proposed for Traveling Salesman Problems (TSPs). A new map and compass operator with comprehensive learning ability is designed to enhance DPIO's exploration ability. A new landmark operator, which has cooperative learning ability and can learn from the heuristic information of TSP instance, is designed to improve DPIO's exploitation ability. Aim to enhance its ability to escape from premature convergence, the Metropolis acceptance criterion is used to decide whether to accept newly produced solutions. Systematic experiments were performed to analyze the behaviours of the map and compass operator and the landmark operator. The performance of DPIO algorithm was tested on 33 large-scale TSP instances from TSPLIB with city number from 1000 to 85900. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is effective and is competitive with most other state-of-the-art meta-heuristic algorithms.

PBL을 적용한 창의공학설계 교수설계 방안 연구

21세기 교육은 객관적 지식이나 정보를 전달하는 것에서 학습자들의 비판적사고력과 문제해결 능력을 배양하는 것으 로 바뀌고 있다. 더욱이 대학교육에서는 학습자들이 졸업 후 진출하게 될 분야에서 담당하게 될 실제적인 업무를 미리 경험 하게하고 자기주도적 학습과 협동학습 능력을 배양할 수 있는 학습자 중심 교육환경의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. PBL은 현재 학습자가 처한 상황을 고려하여 학습자의 흥미를 이끌어 낼 수 있는 현실적이고 실제적인 문제에 관심을 가진다. PBL에서 학습자는 일방적인 지식을 습득하기보다는 다양한 생각과 배경지식을 가진 동료 학습자들과 시식을 공유하고 의미를 협상해 나가는 과정을 통해 협력적 지식을 구축하는 사회적 학습을 경험한다. 이러한 PBL의 장점으로 인해 학교 현장에서 PBL방법 의 활용도가 점차 확대되고 있다. 그러나 공학교육에서는 PBL방버비 활동되지 못하고 있다. 따라서 이러한 현 상황을 개선하 기 위한 새로운 방법이나 방안들을 개발하거나 도입하여 이를 활용할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 현대산업 사회에서 요구하는 창의적 문제 해결 능력을 갖춘 인재를 양성하기 위하여 효율적으로 학습할 수 있도록 하기 위한 방안으로 창의공학설계 교과 목에 대한 PBL 교수설계 모형을 개발하였다. 이 모형은 크게 5가지 절차로 구성되어 있는데 즉, 분석, 설계, 개발, 실행, 평가 로 구성된다. 개발한 PBL 교수설계 모형에 기반하여 창의 공학 설계 교과목을 설계하였다. 본 연구는 창의공학 설계 수업을 위한 PBL 교수 설계 과정에 초점을 두었다. 이러한 교수 설계가 실효성을 거두기 위해서는 실제 많은 강의 현장에 적용해 보는 연구가 뒷받침되어야 할 것이다.

문제중심학습에서 평가주체에 따른 평가 - 튜터평가, 동료평가, 자기평가를 중심으로

본 연구는 문제중심학습에서 튜터, 동료, 자기평가간의 평가점수를 비교하고 평가주체 점수간의 관련성과 평가주체별로 평가에 영향을 미치는 평가영역을 알아보는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 문제중심학습으로 수업받는 간호학과 학생 105명을 대상으로 문제중심학습 효과도구를 가지고 3차에 걸쳐 튜터, 동료, 자기평가를 실시하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS WIN(V. 12.0)으로 분석하였다. 연구결과 3차례의 수업 모두 자기평가 점수가 튜터, 동료평가 점수보다 높았다. 평가주체별 점수간의 관계는 3차례의 수업에서 튜터평가와 동료평가간에 관련성이 있었다. 평가주체별 평가에 영향을 미치는 평가영역은 튜터평가는 '문제해결능력'이었고, 동료평가와 자기평가는 '협동학습능력'이었다. This study was conducted to compare the evaluation scores among different evaluation agents-tutor, peer and self evaluation. It also aimed to identify the correlations among the evaluation agents and each agent's influencing factors that can have impact on PBL evaluation. 105 nursing students who had PBL methods in their learning had 3 different tutor, peer and self evaluation consecutively with the PBL Effectiveness Evaluation Tool. Self evaluation score was higher than both tutor and peer evaluation for 3 different evaluation. There was a significant correlation between tutor evaluation and peer evaluation. 'Problem solving ability' for tutor evaluation and 'Cooperative learning ability' for peer evaluation and self evaluation were the influencing factors.

Reinforcement learning of competitive and cooperative skills in soccer agents

The main aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive numerical analysis on the efficiency of various reinforcement learning (RL) techniques in an agent-based soccer game. The SoccerBots is employed as a simulation testbed to analyze the effectiveness of RL techniques under various scenarios. A hybrid agent teaming framework for investigating agent team architecture, learning abilities, and other specific behaviours is presented. Novel RL algorithms to verify the competitive and cooperative learning abilities of goal-oriented agents for decision-making are developed. In particular, the tile coding (TC) technique, a function approximation approach, is used to prevent the state space from growing exponentially, hence avoiding the curse of dimensionality. The underlying mechanism of eligibility traces is evaluated in terms of on-policy and off-policy procedures, as well as accumulating traces and replacing traces. The results obtained are analyzed, and implications of the results towards agent teaming and learning are discussed.
