Cloud IoT-Oriented Secure College Physical Education Teaching Platform Vased on Deep Learning

In physical education (PE) teaching, the teaching platform is comprehensively applied to provide students with high-quality PE teaching resources to meet their learning needs in different forms. A human motion trajectory detection method is proposed based on deep learning and superpixels. The initial positioning of human body is performed through the attention mechanism and the YOLOv5 model, and the human target tracking is performed through superpixels. Aiming at the difficulty of cross-domain security management due to the lack of security infrastructure in multi-domain cloud IoT, a lightweight certificateless cross-domain authentication scheme is designed. Simulation results show that the proposed detection method has significantly improved accuracy and running time compared with traditional methods and can adapt to different detection scenarios. Furthermore, the proposed certificateless cross-domain authentication scheme can securely access sensor-generated data under the cloud IoT of the PE teaching platform in colleges.

The Application of Distance Education Technology in Standardized Training of Resident Physicians in Primary Orientation Training

This paper explores the application of distance education technology in standardized training of resident physicians in primary orientation training. With the rapid development and popularization of distance education technology, the special needs faced by primary medical institutions in resident physician training are becoming increasingly prominent. By analyzing the current application state, it is found that distance education technology can effectively promote the sharing of high-quality educational resources, improve the flexibility and coverage of training, moreover, it also faces challenges such as technological equipment limitations and insufficient teacher-student interaction. To optimize the application effect, this paper proposes strategies such as strengthening technical support, optimizing teaching content and form, and establishing a sound training effect evaluation system. This study not only helps to improve the training quality of primary resident physicians, but also has important significance for improving the level of primary medical services. Looking to the future, distance education technology will play a greater role in the training of primary resident physicians, which is of great significance for improving the level of primary medical services.

The effect of a multi-school zoning policy on the capitalization of educational resources: A quasi-natural experiment in Beijing

The problem of capitalizing high-quality education resources into real estate prices has been widely analyzed. This paper discusses the influence of school district policy—the “multi-school zoning (MSZ)” policy—on district housing prices in Beijing. The MSZ policy randomly assigns students to key primary schools (A public primary school with a long history and outstanding teaching quality), indirectly affecting residents' house-buying behavior. Using data from 60,663 housing transactions, we evaluated the effect of the policy through regression discontinuity (RD) design methodology. The results showed that: (1) overall house prices decreased by 8.2 % in Xicheng, and by 10.1 % in Haidian. The more significant decrease in Haidian is likely because of the large differences in educational resources in that area. (2) Housing prices in key vs. high-quality school districts in Xicheng decreased by 10.7 % and 10.6 %, respectively, likely because of the superior quality and balanced educational resources in that region. The effect of the MSZ policy on housing prices in key and high-quality school districts is similar. (3) Housing prices in different school districts in Haidian decreased by 12.5 % and 6.8 %, respectively. The unique merit-based enrollment model of Haidian undermines the random allocation aspect of the MSZ policy, thereby diminishing its inhibitory effect on housing prices in high - quality school districts. These findings shed light on the MSZ's role in preventing the capitalization of educational resources, which varies among school districts. The results may serve as a reference for policy makers in subsequent implementations.

A novel MATLAB toolbox for Control101 courses

In recent years the educationally focused parts of the global control community have given some focus to what constitutes a sensible first course in control (Rossiter et al., 2020) and how to support this with high quality learning and teaching resources. This paper contributes to that overall effort in that it provides an example of high quality, open-access resources to support students in their independent learning. One aspect of the ideal first course in control is the suggestion that we (the community) focus more on concepts and understanding and less on tedious paper and pen calculations; to do this the community needs suitable easy to use software for performing computations and producing illustrations. Hence the author is leading what he hopes will be a collaborative community project on creating a MATLAB toolbox to provide such software. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the toolbox, present its current contents and thus enable staff to evaluate and adopt this toolbox and moreover, to reflect on how it might be improved.

Research on Effective Supply Strategies of Informationization Teaching Resources under the Background of "Double Reduction"

The quality of education after the "double reduction" needs to be guaranteed by deepening education and teaching reform. In order to better implement the "double reduction", it is necessary to apply information technology teaching methods to promote educational reform. At the same time, deepening information technology teaching reform is also an effective measure to promote the common and balanced development of compulsory education. In the society where information technology teaching is constantly developing, information resources are everywhere. In the context of "double reduction", the study of effective supply strategies for high-quality information technology education resources is conducive to the realization of reducing burden, increasing efficiency, and improving the quality of education environment. On the basis of explaining how information technology education resources can empower the implementation of "double reduction", this study proposes effective supply strategies for information technology education resources from the perspectives of precise promotion of teaching resources and teaching services, hierarchical supply of after-school service resources, big data resources to assist school work, and transformation of service models for off campus institutions.

The Impact of Metacognition on Scores in the Cloze Tests of the New College Entrance Examination for English in Jiangsu Province: A Case Study of English Teaching in the Flow Classroom at Nanjing No.5 Senior High School

With the continuous reform and development of China's education system, the position of metacognition in language learning has gradually been emphasized. The New College Entrance Examination in Jiangsu Province, which is part of China's secondary education curriculum reform, imposes stricter and broader requirements on students' English proficiency. Under this new situation, it is particularly important to study in detail the use of metacognition in the English subject and to analyze the effect of metacognition on students' performance in the English Completed Gaps section of the New College Entrance Examination. In order to better understand how metacognition can help students improve their performance in the English Cloze Exam, this study will take a process in "Flow classroom" of Nanjing No.5 Middle School as a case study. The English curriculum and teaching methods of the "class" in Nanjing No. 5 Middle School are characterized by the school's high-quality teaching resources. The study also emphasizes practice and innovation to develop students' metacognitive skills. Therefore, through empirical cases, it can be better understood the role of metacognition in actual classroom teaching and practical tips to help students achieve better grades in the College Entrance Examination.

The Impact of the Double Reduction Policy on China's K-12 Education Industry: An Empirical Analysis Based on the Difference-in-Differences Method

The Double Reduction Policy introduced by the Chinese government in 2021 imposed unprecedented restrictive measures on privately-run extracurricular training institutions providing compulsory education subjects. Numerous education enterprises involved in K-12 business were profoundly affected. To explore the impact of the policy on education enterprises and the industry, this paper employs the Difference-in-Differences method for analysis. The findings reveal that the "Dual Reduction" policy led to an 8.165% decline in the profit margin of education enterprises, accompanied by a significant reduction in the number of employees, with an assessed decrease of 31.57%. Further analysis of the impact mechanism indicates that the policy's effect on the number of employees lags behind its impact on profit margin. Based on these results, the study suggests the optimization of the content and implementation approach of education policies to minimize negative impacts and to incorporate high-quality education resources provided by education enterprises through more comprehensive measures.

Development and Evaluation of a Clinician-Vetted Dementia Caregiver Resources Website: Mixed Methods Approach.

About 11 million Americans are caregivers for the 6.7 million Americans currently living with dementia. They provide over 18 billion hours of unpaid care per year, yet most have no formal dementia education or support. It is extremely difficult for clinicians to keep up with the demand for caregiver education, especially as dementia is neurodegenerative in nature, requiring different information at different stages of the disease process. In this digital age, caregivers often seek dementia information on the internet, but clinicians lack a single, reliable compendium of expert-approved digital resources to provide to dementia caregivers. Our aim was to create a dementia caregiver resources website to serve as a hub for user-friendly, high-quality, and expert-reviewed dementia educational resources that clinicians can easily supply to family caregivers of people with dementia. An interdisciplinary website development team (representing dementia experts from occupational therapy, nursing, social work, geriatrics, and neurology) went through 6 iterative steps of website development to ensure resource selection quality and eligibility rigor. Steps included (1) resource collection, (2) creation of eligibility criteria, (3) resource organization by topic, (4) additional content identification, (5) finalize resource selection, and (6) website testing and launch. Website visits were tracked, and a 20-item survey about website usability and utility was sent to Veterans Affairs tele-geriatrics interdisciplinary specialty care groups. Following website development, the dementia caregiver resource website was launched in February 2022. Over the first 9 months, the site averaged 1100 visits per month. The 3 subcategories with the highest number of visits were "general dementia information," "activities of daily living," and "self-care and support." Most (44/45, 98%) respondents agreed or strongly agreed that the website was easy to navigate, and all respondents agreed or strongly agreed that the resources were useful. The iterative process of creating the dementia caregiver resources website included continuous identification, categorization, and prioritization of resources, followed by clinician feedback on website usability, accessibility, and suggestions for improvement. The website received thousands of visits and positive clinician reviews in its first 9 months. Results demonstrate that an expert-vetted, nationally, and remotely available resource website allows for easy access to dementia education for clinicians to provide for their patients and caregivers. This process of website development can serve as a model for other clinical subspecialty groups seeking to create a comprehensive educational resource for populations who lack easy access to specialty care.

The Lack of High-quality Educational Resources about Adhesive Capsulitis on YouTube.

Objective The advent of the Internet has provided new, easily accessible resources for patients seeking additional health information. Many doctors and healthcare organizations post informative videos on this platform, and nearly all patients are looking for videos online for a second opinion. Methods The phrases "frozen shoulder," "frozen shoulder treatment," "adhesive" capsulitis, and "adhesive capsulitis treatment" were entered into YouTube's search bar for a normal inquiry. The informativeness and overall quality of the adhesive capsulitis videos were rated using three separate scales. Results The mean and standard deviation values of the scoring systems were JAMA 1.25 ± 0.51, DISCERN 39.4 ± 13.4, GQS 2.83 ± 0.96 and ACSS 7.43 ± 4.86, respectively. Number of views, rate of views, and likes all had a positive correlation with Global Quality Score (GQS), as did DISCERN and ACSS. There was no statistically significant difference between the median JAMA, GQS score and Discern Criteria values according to the video source/uploader (p > 0.05). Conclusion YouTube videos on adhesive capsulitis, thus, need to be of higher quality, reliability, and instructive quality. There is a need for reliable videos about adhesive capsulitis, with instructional and high-quality cited.

The distributional effects of introducing a lottery system in school assignment rule: Evidence from an experiment in Beijing, China

This paper examines the distributional effects of a multi-school districting reform, involving lottery property allocation, on families’ school choice behavior in Beijing, China. Employing a competitive school district housing market model, we investigate the reform's implications on housing prices and school enrollment patterns. Using a unique dataset that combines second-hand housing transaction records and school enrollment data, we document this notable consequence: a substantial 4.57% decrease in housing prices in Haidian District post-reform, resulting in enhanced access to high-quality schools for middle-income families. However, the impact on school choice behavior exhibits structural disparities. While the reform creates opportunities for middle-income families, lower-income families may encounter challenges in accessing public primary schools, where housing prices with improved educational quality have risen by 1.21%. Conversely, affluent families opt for private schools to secure high-quality educational resources, evident in a 4.25% increase in corresponding rent. Additionally, Chinese families prefer proximity to schools to minimize commuting expenses, as reflected in a 0.56% rise in rents near public primary schools. These findings emphasize the importance of addressing both “excessive school choice competition” and the diverse educational preferences of families when implementing school assignment rule reforms in developing countries. Our research expands the literature on primary education and extends concepts for education reform in other developing countries.

Improving the educational experience on Youtube: a machine learning approach to classifying and recommending educational videos

The fast development of technology has revolutionized social interaction and enabled easy access to a vast amount of information. However, it is increasingly challenging to find relevant educational materials within the large volume of available data. This challenge has led to a significant waste of time for teachers and students in searching for high-quality educational resources. In this sense, the present work focuses on classifying educational videos on YouTube using Machine Learning models. The study extends a previous work that analyzed YouTube videos and proposed a methodology for classifying them using their comments. The current study expands the dataset used in the previous work and employs Machine Learning algorithms such as Random Forest and Neural Networks, along with hyperparameter tuning techniques like Grid Search. Experimental results showed that a Convolutional Neural Network was able to differentiate educational videos from non-educational ones with an accuracy rate of 95,71%. This study highlights the potential of Convolutional Neural Networks in classifying educational content on YouTube, contributing to advances in the field of Machine Learning for educational purposes.

Effects of Entry Grades on Students' Academic Performance Under Homogeneous Educational Resources.

A minor difference in college entrance examination scores can result in vastly different educational resources in China, so it has been debated whether it is the difference in the student population or the difference in educational resources that causes the difference in medical graduates. We aimed to evaluate the effects of entry grades on students' academic performance under homogeneous educational resources. Students in grade 2016 with 13-point difference in the average admission scores of 2 medicine schools in Sun Yat-sen University were educated in mixed classes and were taught with the same educators during the 5 years of undergraduate period. The grades, graduation, and postgraduate enrollment rates of the students were compared between the two campuses. The average admission scores for Shenzhen Campus (SZC) students are 13 points lower than those of Guangzhou North Campus (GZNC) (613 points vs 626 points). After 5 years of homogeneous education, comparing the GZNC students with the SZC students, there were no significant differences in the average total score (80.2 ± 4.6 vs 80.0 ± 5.6, P = 0.691), the average compulsory course (78.9 ± 3.4 vs 78.4 ± 6.1, P = 0.438), the average core course score (78.8 ± 7.4 vs 78.7 ± 5.0, P=0.860) and the average clerkship score (85.1 ± 7.2 vs 84.6 ± 2.7, P=0.275). However, the completion rate for SZC was higher than for GZNC (93.94% vs 86.27%, P=0.009). There was no statistical difference in postgraduate enrolment between the two institutions (P=0.758). Given the same educational resources, more medical students with lower entrance scores completed their studies and achieved the same percentage of postgraduate acceptance. This finding suggests that a key component of improving the quality of medical higher education in China may be to further rationalize the allocation of high-quality educational resources, rather than to pursuing students with high entrance examination scores.

The Challenge of Online Education to Educational Equity and its Solving Strategies

As an emerging form of education, online education provides learners with more flexible and extensive learning opportunities, but it also brings a challenge to educational equity. Under the influence of resource allocation, regional differences and technological gap, learners' access to high-quality educational resources is unbalanced. To solve this problem, we need to start from multiple levels. The government should increase the investment in online education resources and formulate relevant policies to ensure educational equity. Online education platforms should improve the openness of educational resources and use advanced technologies to narrow the educational gap between regions. Teachers and educational institutions need to constantly improve the quality of teaching and cultivate learners' independent learning and collaborative learning abilities to adapt to the characteristics of online education. Only with the joint efforts of all parties can we truly realize the universal benefit of online education and promote educational equity.
