  • Current interest in mathematics learning that focuses on understanding, mathematical reasoning and meaning making underscores the need to develop ways of analyzing classrooms that foster these types of learning. In this paper, the author show that the constructs of social and socio-mathematical norms, which grew out of taking a symbolic interactionist perspective, and Toulmins scheme for argumentation, as elaborated for mathematics education by Krummheuer [The ethnology of argumentation. In: The emergence of mathematical meaning: Interaction in classroom cultures (1995, pp. 229-269). Hillsdale, NJ: Erlbaum], provide us with means to analyze aspects of explanation, justification and argumentation in mathematics classrooms, including means through which they can be fostered. Examples from a variety of classrooms are used to clarify how these notions can inform instruction at all levels, from the elementary grades through university-level mathematics.

  • This study examines the development and management of the Herb Island in Japan, and explores influences of the herb garden on a rural community. The result suggested that the development of a herb garden can make a major impact on a rural community's econmoic stability and growth, and low-input cultivation of herbs serves to the ecosystem and soil conservation. In order to foster the herb industry in Korea, three aspcets should be considered. These are as follows. 1. Selection of suitable kinds of herbs and sites for Korean natural environment,and planning for proper landuse should be carried out first. 2. Proper policies for a herb garden to help local economy should be established. 3. Development of programs and experts on environmental education should be included in planning herb gardens in order to contribute to natural environment preservation.

  • Ubiquitous society education students, teachers, parents, and educational administration systems, learning tools, and things connected to this one because it provides a learning environment in education for each student to determine their characteristics and needs, and even provide the required services for each student can. In other words, students and teachers within the school to concentrate on education and research activities of the intelligence service is the latest. The future of the ubiquitous era of ubiquitous era of education the future of the education side of the current lack of education to complement the new era of human resources required to foster a positive alternative to bear fruit for all members of our community's interest and commitment, wisdom and education officials, This will be together.

  • Numerical schemes are routinely used to predict the behavior of continuous dynamical systems. All such schemes transform flows into maps, which can possess dynamical behavior deviating from their continuous counterparts. Here the common bifurcations of scalar dynamical systems are transformed under a class of algorithms known as linearized one-point collocation methods. Through the use of normal forms, we prove that each such bifurcation in an originating flow gives rise to an exactly corresponding one in its discretization. The conditions for spurious period doubling behavior under this class of algorithm are derived. We discuss the global behavioral consequences of a singular set induced by the discretizing methods, including loss of monotonicity of solutions, intermittency, and distortion of attractor basins.

  • This paper deals with an equivalent circuit model for RF passive components. Rational functions are obtained from the frequency responses of EM simulation by using Foster canonical partial fraction expressions. The Vector Fitting(VF) and the Adaptive Frequency Sampling(AFS) scheme are also implemented to obtain the rational functions. A passivity enforcement algorithm is applied to ensure the stability of the equivalent circuit model. In order to verify the schemes, S parameters of the equivalent circuit model is compared to those of EM simulation in case of the microstrip line structure with 3 slots in ground.

  • On our return to India from Germany, we have worked on the development of parabolic solar concentrators with input and collaboration of German and Austrian inventors. We have gradually improved the solar technologies to include food processing based on inputs and feedback from users to fulfill their specific requirements. We will discuss the acceptability and commercialisation of various systems that we have successfully developed, their implications and their benefit. These success stories can work as multipliers. These concentrators can have various other applications. The Global Treaty Kyoto Protocol's CDM (Clean Development Mechanism) can result in a win-win situation for both developing and developed nations and the world environment at large - whereby developed nations get carbon credits by supporting renewable energy projects in developing nations. North-South dialogue and South-South dialogue can effectively foster global co-operation meaningfully to benefit People and environments ensuring sustainable development and protection of Our planet Earth, our only HOME!!!

  • The government conducted an aviation expert training project in 2013. But unfortunately, only pilots and international experts were targeted and aircraft maintenance engineers that are the most important to safety were not trainee to the training courses. More importantly, the more the absolute number of aircrafts increases, the more demand for aircraft maintenance engineers are going up as well. Through the evaluation indicators for the Government-Sponsored Program Fostering Aviation Personnel(aircraft maintenance engineers). it figured out factors associated with the Government-Sponsored Program Fostering Aircraft Maintenance Engineers and it suggested a baseline data necessary to inspect and manage professional training institutions. Thanks to the development of the evaluation indicators, it is highly expected that difference among institutions will be narrowed, elevated level of management of the institutions will help foster and yield satisfactory aircraft maintenance engineers.

  • One of important topics in mathematics education research is communication. Mathematical communication consists of writing, reading, listening and speaking. But, research on reading has not yet to have a commensurate emphasis, despite important changes that have occurred in the theory and practice of communication. This study is intended to search for reading in school mathematics. First, we explore theories of reading and reading instruction. Second, the factors involved in reading are examined. These factors are learners, texts and teachers. Third, we provide a variety of reading strategies that are reading and enacting strategy, reconstructing strategy, presupposing strategy, becoming an author strategy, sketch to stretch strategy and reading- cooperative learning strategy. They will help students to foster students' mathematical ability as well as reading skill.

  • Since the greater part of mathematical concepts have been developed in the direction of “from the concrete and realistic aspects to the abstract level”, children should be secured to learn mathematics genetically with various manipulative materials. The aim of this study is to instigate the active use of geoboards in mathematics classroom. To achieve this arm, we first embodied the several significances on the use of geoboards in mathematics instruction. And we then performed an instruction that children discover and justify the formula related to the area of trapezoid by exploring with geoboards, and analyzed the instructional episode to support our assertion about some secure merit accompanied by using geoboards. From this study, we obtained the conclusion that geoboard activity contains many significances such as children can explore congruence, symmetry, similarity, fundamental properties of figures, and pattern. Futhermore, geoboard activity enable children to transform a figure into other equivalently, develop spatial sense, have basic experiences for coordinate geometry, build a concrete model to explain abstract ideas, and foster the ability of problem solving and mathematical thinking.

  • It is the well-documented fact that most patients experience considerable stress in hospital. Stress is also a problem for families of patients, visitors and for hospital staffs. To promote wellness. It is fundamentally important that hospital be designed to foster copying with stress. By Literature review, this study presents stressors of patients, families, hospital staffs and various healing design elements. And then, it cross-checks the relations between stress-reducing conditions and healing design elements. Finally, this presents the healing design conditions for each stress-reducing conditions of patients, families and staffs.
