Multi-Agent Systems and Machine Learning for Wind Turbine Power Prediction from an Educational Perspective

Artificial intelligence (AI) is an umbrella term that encompasses different fields of study, and topics related to these fields are addressed separately or within the scope of AI. Multi-agent systems (MASs) and machine learning (ML) are the core concepts of AI that are taught during AI courses. The separate explanation of these core research areas is common, but the emergence of federated learning has triggered their combined usage. This paper describes a practical scenario in the energy domain where these technologies can be used together to provide a sustainable energy solution for predicting wind turbine active power production. The projects in the AI course were assigned prior to the step-by-step learning of MASs and ML. These concepts were applied using a wind turbine energy dataset collected in Turkey to predict the power production of wind turbines. The observed performance improvements, achieved by applying various agent architectures and data partitioning scenarios, indicate that boosting methods such as LightGBM yield better results even when the settings are modified. Additionally, a questionnaire about the assignments was filled out by the student groups to assess the impact of learning MASs and ML through project-based education. The application of MASs and ML in a hybrid way proves valuable for learning core concepts related to AI education, as evidenced by feedback from students.

Curriculum ideological and political education is a comprehensive educational concept that constructs a pattern of education for all student, the entire process, and the entire curriculum. It aligns various courses with ideological and political theory courses, forming a synergistic effect, and regards "cultivating morality and talent" as the fundamental task of education. The teaching of maritime English courses also requires exploring the ideological and political elements in professional knowledge and cleverly integrating them into practical teaching. The current implementation of ideological and political education in maritime English courses should follow the following principles: based on teaching content, refining ideological and political elements; Cleverly integrating into teaching and avoiding rote imitation; Combining "explicit" and "implicit"; Combining in class and out of class. This article attempts to deeply understand the connotation and implementation principles of ideological and political courses, and apply them in project-based teaching of maritime English, in order to provide experience for frontline teaching.

Adaptive Differential Evolutionary Algorithm for Innovative Teaching and Learning in High School Project-Based Courses

Abstract In this paper, for the innovative teaching of high school project-based courses, an adaptive differential evolutionary algorithm is used as one of the tools of the project to help students solve complex problems. The traditional adaptive differential evolution algorithm has the problems of local optimum and low convergence accuracy; to overcome these limitations, this paper proposes an enhanced reverse learning adaptive differential evolution algorithm. The OL-ADE algorithm is improved by introducing the reverse learning strategy in machine learning to extract the reverse elite individual population from the original individual population and select the better-adapted individuals for mutation operation. After the project-based teaching, the students’ works have high scores in layout color matching, technical operation, organization, information awareness, and information social responsibility, and their scores are 8.6, 9.75, 9, 9.35, and 8.75, respectively. Therefore, this paper proves the Adaptive Difference Evolution algorithm’s effectiveness in innovative teaching of high school project-based courses.

Incorporating social responsibility into translator training through situated learning in translation projects: making room for a sustainable learning environment

ABSTRACT The majority of previous studies focused on the role of social responsibility (SR) in business settings, however, how to incorporate SR into translation training appears to be unexplored. This study concerns incorporating SR authentic activities into translator training through situated learning in translation projects. It investigates how incorporating SR into translator training benefits the development and learning of translation students and preserves a sustainable learning environment. The aim is twofold: to gain a deep understanding of the processes of development and implementation of SR initiatives at translator training, and to reflect on the adoption of Participatory Action Research (PAR) in this context. A representative sample of final-year translation students at a public university in Saudi Arabia completed two distinct types of authentic translation tasks and turned in final project reports. The qualitative findings indicated that students’ attitudes toward SR were generally positive. They further revealed that collaborative project-based education is a very effective way to improve translation and generic skills and increase awareness of SR necessary for learning sustainability. In light of the findings, valuable pedagogical insights for university and curriculum designers to create or adapt curricula for situated translator training in line with learning sustainability are recommended.

An Inquiry into the Evolution of the Project-based Instructional Approach “Three” from “A Program” to “A High-quality Course”
