The main problem this study addresses involves a lack of knowledge about precisely how much of an impact the design and user interface of learning management systems (LMSs) like Blackboard or Sulis may have on the pedagogical performance of staff members at two Third Level Institutions regarding teaching methods used. The independent variables in the study include the system design and user interface of the system while the dependent variable is the teaching methods used by instructors. The study aims to answer the following questions:  How do lecturers critically view the LMS system design?  How do lecturers critically view the LMS system user interface?  How does the current LMS help lecturers to employ a variety of teaching methods? Interviews are the most popular way to collect information about human-computer interactions. The researcher believed that interviews would not provide enough information to answer the research question and used Mixed Methodology Research techniques. The researcher conducted interviews with 15 teachers from the two targeted Institutions. The study also received 248 teacher responses to the questionnaires distributed online. Using the data gathered from interviews and surveys, the study obtained enough evidence to properly discuss and analyse the strengths and weaknesses of the system design and user interface of each LMS on the teaching methods used. The findings show that LMS designs can greatly impact upon the effectiveness of the system. The data collected by the study provide significant evidence of how system differences can impact and leave a lasting influence upon the user experience. The final conclusions argue that the Blackboard system used at one Institutions – The University of Najran – contributed effectively to the education process of both learning and teaching, while the Sulis system – used at The University of Limerick – was significantly less effective in this domain.

Projetos de seqüenciamento de genomas obtêm as bases que compõem seqüências biológicas de um organismo, de tal forma que suas funções possam ser inferidas. As inferências de funções biológicas constituem uma das tarefas mais importantes destes projetos, as quais são realizadas na fase de anotação. Existem softwares} e bases de dados que podem auxiliar os biólogos a realizar esta tarefa com uma maior acurácia e eficiência. Esta etapa é chamada de anotação automática. Os biólogos decidem as funções biológicas ou classificações das seqüências, com base nos seus conhecimentos biológicos. Esta etapa é chamada de anotação manual. Sistemas Multiagente possuem uma arquitetura própria onde agentes inteligentes ou entidades autônomas interagem entre si de maneira cooperativa, compartilhando um objetivo comum ou agindo de acordo com seus objetivos individuais. Neste contexto, este trabalho propõe um sistema baseado na abordagem de Sistema Multiagente para apoiar o processo de anotação manual. A arquitetura do sistema provê a combinação de diferentes agentes, de tal forma que estes interajam entre si e com o ambiente, cooperando de forma a sugerir anotações manuais que deverão ser validadas pelos biólogos. Um protótipo, denominado BioAgents, foi desenvolvido sob uma arquitetura multiagente com abordagem blackboard a fim de validar a proposta. Como estudo de caso, aplicamos o BioAgents em dois projetos de seqüenciamento de genomas, cujo processamento foi realizado pelo Laboratório de Bioinformática do Instituto de Biologia da UnB, a saber: Projeto Genoma Funcional e Diferencial do Paracoccidioides brasilienses (Projeto Genoma Pb) e o Projeto Genoma Funcional e Genética Genômica de Paullinia cupana (Projeto Genoma Guaraná).

Genome sequencing projects provide the basis to form the biological sequences of an organism, in such a away that their functions can be inferred. The biological function inferences constitute one of the most important tasks of these projects, which is carried through the annotation phase. There are softwares and databases that can help the biologists through with improved accuracy and eciency. This task is called automatic annotation. The biologists decide the biological functions or the classication of the sequences based on their own biological knowledge. This task is called manual annotation. Multiagent Systems provide an architecture where intelligent agents or auto- nomous entities interact with each other in a cooperative way, where they can share a common goal or act according to their own interests. This work presents a system based on the Multiagent System approach to support the process of manual annotation. The architecture of the system provides the combination of dierent agents, in such a way that these agents must interact among themselves and with the environment, suggesting annotations that will be later validated by the biologists. A prototype called BioAgents was developed under a multiagent architecture according to a blackboard approach in order to validate the proposal. Two study cases…

▼ Learning Management Systems, or LMSs, are widely used throughout higher education to deliver a range of instructional services including content delivery, discussion boards and collaborative work space, testing tools, and gradebook functions. LMSs can be used asynchronously or synchronously in support of online learning, classroom-based learning, and blended or “hybridized” learning which combines face-to-face and online instruction. An institution-wide Learning Management System can represent an investment of several hundred thousand to several million dollars, require significant staffing resources, and potentially affect most, if not all, faculty and students at an institution. Selection of an appropriate LMS for a college, university, or state higher education system is a consequential process. This study investigates two closely related areas of inquiry pertaining to the selection of a Learning Management System for institution-wide use at a college, university, or state higher education system. The first area of inquiry concerns the LMS selection and decision-making process employed by the institutions represented in this study and the role their senior IT leaders play in that process. The second area of inquiry investigates the possible impact that intellectual property rights (IPR) litigation, relative to Learning Management Systems, may have on the thinking and decision-making of these IT leaders when helping to select their institution’s LMS. Interviews with fifteen Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and Learning Technology Directors from a range of Carnegie classification higher education institutions were conducted, and transcripts from these in-depth interviews were coded using qualitative analytical methods and techniques developed by Strauss (1987) and others. Analysis of this data generated topics, themes, and dimensions related to the two major research foci of this study. Theoretical works pertaining to the diffusion of innovations, evolutionary theory of individual and organizational behavior, and research on intellectual property protections like patent and copyright and their possible impact on innovation are used to help frame the analysis of these areas of research inquiry. Litigation by Blackboard Inc., the largest Learning Management System manufacturer, against one of their commercial competitors, Desire2Learn Inc., citing patent infringement, helps provide context for portions of this study. The Blackboard v. Desire2Learn legal case was selected because it directly related to the IPR legal enforcement issues being investigated; it was timely, since the case was being prosecuted at the time of the interviews; and it was familiar to most higher education IT leaders due to the widespread publicity and debate it had generated. Having this common frame of reference across interviews and respondents helped facilitate the collection, organization, and analysis of the data used in this study. This research contributes information about the process higher education… Advisors/Committee Members: Haythornthwaite, Caroline A. (advisor), Haythornthwaite, Caroline A.

▼ This thesis aims to explore learning management systems use and usefulness in Higher Education (HE) environments in a Middle Eastern developing country (Saudi Arabia) and gauge what factors influence the attitudes of the learners and by the same token investigate which of these, if any, do affect their performances in such environments. This study intends to delve into these factors and single out any relationships that might exist among these factors. The LMS (learning management system) chosen for the purpose of this research is the „Blackboard‟ LMS. To enable the researcher to look thoroughly at the issue, three separate studies were conducted to achieve comprehensive results. Qualitative and quantitative methodologies were combined for maximum Data collection from participants using questionnaires, interviews and numerical data from the Blackboard tracking system. A framework encompassing all the perceived critical variables that could play a part in affecting students' attitudes in the use of the Blackboard LMS and their overall achievements was designed, developed and then tested. The framework consists of four main parts, 1) Learners interaction with their peers; their ability to use the Internet and associated technologies, named 'learner dimension'. 2) Instructors‟ technical knowledge and competence, the manner in which they deliver lessons to learners using 'Blackboard' and the interactions taking place between the two parties named ' instructor variable or dimension'. 3) The technology itself variable or dimension: usability, flexibility and quality. 4) The HE institution's support dimension: training and technical support. The results have indicated that students were keen to adopt the LMS Blackboard for their courses. Instructor attitudes and behaviours when using Blackboard were found to play a major role in students' attitudes and performances. A major relationship was found in relation to student gender, academic specialization and attitude towards using the LMS, but not in the way the system is used. Students varied and various academic specializations were found to impact positively on their attitude towards the use of the system and in their learning (in terms of performance on a specific course). The learner variable was found to be a good indicator of how students behaved towards VLE and Blackboard and their achievements. The Instructor dimension was also found to be a positive indicator of students' attitudes, their use of Blackboard and achievements in its use. Similarly the technology and the HE institution variables were also found to be sound indicators of their attitudes.

▼ It is increasingly the case that organizations rely upon diverse computer systems to perform a variety of knowledge-based tasks. This not only presents technical issues of interoperability and integration, but philosophical issues of how cooperation and interaction between computational entities is to be realized. Cooperating systems are systems that work together toward a common end. To develop cooperating heterogeneous systems the technical and philosophical must find common ground. The concepts of cooperation must find realization in technically sound system architectures. The heterogeneity and complexity of knowledge sources make it difficult to design and use an integrated system. This is particularly true of systems that are constructed of pre-existing components, each of which has its own task, design, and structure. We advocate adding a uniform meta-layer between knowledge sources and the rest of the system. The layer consists of a family of interpreters, one for each knowledge source, and meta-knowledge. A system architecture to integrate and control diverse knowledge sources is presented. The architecture is based on the meta-level properties of the logic programming language Prolog. We describe an implementation of the architecture, a Framework for Logic Programming Systems with D istributed Execution (FLiPSiDE). Based on the vanilla blackboard interpreter, we present interpreter enhancements that model the cooperative behavior of knowledge sources. Examples of interpreters to handle shared semantics and multiple interaction behaviors are shown. We introduce a dedicated trigger handler knowledge source to the design of control blackboard architectures. The advantages of such a knowledge source, including dynamic modification of triggers, are described. The support of human users is presented as an example of integrating heterogeneous users with the computational knowledge sources. The FLiPSiDE architecture is generalized to create a distributed Prolog environment. As background we present the blackboard model and some of its realizations, explain the concepts of meta-level systems, and examine organizational learning and decision making to determine the essential characteristics of cooperation.

▼ Students of today up to the age of 25 are referred to as digital natives. They have grown up in a world of computers and the Internet. They live in a so called anytime/anyplace world, that is not constrained by time or place. Most educational institutions, on the other hand, operate on fixed campuses and within fixed calendars preferring more passive means of instruction like lectures and the use of textbooks. Digital natives, however, are more active learners preferring, interactive learning which includes the use of the Internet and associated applications. There is clearly a mismatch between what higher education institutions are offering and what digital natives are expecting. Evidently higher educational institutions need to change in order to keep abreast with the technologically savvy students they serve. Many higher educational institutions have realized the benefits of online learning and are therefore investing in online learning technologies to meet this change. This includes the Durban University of Technology which is investing huge sums of money in the learning management system (LMS) Blackboard, intended to facilitate teaching and learning at the University. This study investigates the perceptions of staff towards the use of Blackboard for teaching and learning to understand the reasons for the slow adoption of Blackboard by staff. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were used in this study. The quantitative technique involved the statistical and numerical analysis of the responses to the closed-ended Likert type questions. The qualitative method involved using the data obtained from the interviews. The study has revealed that academic staff (users and non-users of Blackboard) and students are in agreement that Blackboard will enable them to improve their teaching and learning, however staff as well as students, have indicated that some of the facilitating conditions need to be addressed for them to fully adopt the use of Blackboard.

O quadro de escrever tem sido nos dias atuais alvo de críticas por parte de muitos professores que o consideram tradicional. Entretanto, alguns professores e pedagogos dentre os quais eu me incluo, consideram que, desde que usado de forma diferenciada, é de suma importância para o ensino e aprendizagem, principalmente na disciplina de Matemática. Essa dissertação versa sobre um estudo feito em uma turma de 7 série do Ensino Fundamental, cujo objetivo foi verificar quais os fatores que dificultam a participação dos alunos nas atividades no quadro de escrever. O estudo mostra que o quadro não é, em sua materialidade, um recurso tradicional. Em sua utilização estão presentes relações de poder que fazem com que os alunos não aceitem participar de suas atividades. As discussões são feitas em torno da necessidade de envolver os alunos e o professor em atividades interativas via quadro de escrever, haja vista que, esse artefato é adequado para a viabilização da comunicação matemática entre professor e alunos e dos alunos entre si.

The blackboard nowadays has been, criticized by those teachers who consider it traditional. However some teachers and pedagogues, including myself, consider that since it is used in a different way, the blackboard has great importance for teaching and learning, mainly for mathematics. This essay is about a study done in a junior high school 7th grade group and its goal is to verify what are the reasons that make students participation on blackboard activities difficult. This study shows that the blackboard isnt, in its material form, a traditional recourse. In its use there are power relations that make the students do not accept to participate in its activities. The discussion happens around the necessity of involving the students and the teacher in interaction activities which channel is the blackboard since it is adequate for mathematics communication between teacher and students and among students.

▼ Spatial visualization skills are a function of genetics and life experiences. An individual’s genetic spatial visualization aptitude can be enhanced through proper instruction and practice. Spatial visualization skills are important to engineers as they help with problem formulation and thus enhance problem-solving ability. They are also vital to an engineer’s ability to create and interpret visual representations of design ideas. This study seeks to investigate the experiential factors affecting spatial visualization skills and methods with which these skills can be enhanced. This study also investigates the correlation between spatial visualization ability and pre-college life experiences, as well as spatial visualization ability and academic performance. Participants were selected from an introductory engineering course. Participants in the treatment and control groups were pre- and post-tested using the Purdue Spatial Visualization Test—Rotations to gauge spatial visualization ability. The treatment consisted of students being given a series of technology-generated representations of figures from various perspectives that may aid in visualization of these objects. Scores between the treatment and control groups were compared and checked for statistical significance. Participants were also given a questionnaire to complete. The answers from the questionnaire were coded for levels of pre-college experience in certain key areas that are hypothesized to aid in the development of spatial visualization skills. These quantitative experience levels were correlated to pre-test results to verify the hypothesis of these life experiences’ significance in spatial visualization ability development. The relationship between student academic performance and spatial visualization ability was also investigated. Instructional tool utilization and access effects on spatial visualization skill gains between pre-tests and post-tests were not significant. This is potentially due to a substitutive rather than additive effect to student experiences through usage of the instructional tool. Developmental experiences with stackable toys such as Legos and building blocks were a significant predictor of initial spatial ability, confirming previous findings. Developmental experiences with home improvement activities significantly affected graded performance in coursework. Initial spatial ability was also a significant predictor of course grades. Course grade and resource web-based applications can be used successfully in the deployment of open access electronic instructional tools. Institutional web applications can also be used to automate and conduct large studies. Access, utilization logging, grades, and enforcement of experimental design parameters and treatment group segregation can be provisioned via online course grade and resource repositories such as Carmen, by Desire-to-Learn, employed in this study. Improvements in data accessibility must be made in course web applications to facilitate more studies conducted in this… Advisors/Committee Members: Mount-Campbell, Clark (Advisor).

▼ Given a burgeoning focus on faculty professional development and faculty participation in technologically mediated instruction, it is increasingly important to understand how faculty members learn to teach online. It is critical to know the types of learning experiences that faculty deem as meaningful. The purpose of this study is to examine retrospectively the learning experiences of faculty who participated in formal professional development for online instruction and stated that they made an instructional change(s) based on their learning. In this study, I used the transformational learning theory (Mezirow, 1991, 1997, 2000a, 2000b, 2009a, 2009b) as a framework for interviewing the faculty participants and interpretive phenomenological analysis to examine the data. To understand more about the learning experiences that faculty have that transform their instructional practices, this study explores the learning experiences of higher education faculty who participated in professional development provided by Blackboard personnel at Blackboard/institution sponsored Blackboard Days and Never Stop Learning Tour events (details regarding the nature of these events are described in Chapter 3). Over 600 evaluations were collected from faculty who participated in 47 sessions at Blackboard sponsored Blackboard Days and Never Stop Learning Tour events. One of the six questions faculty participants were asked is "How likely are you to change your teaching practices based on this session?" Greater than 90% of the faculty's responses indicated that they are "very likely" or "somewhat likely" to change their teaching practices. I arrived at a purposive sample of six faculty who stated that they did change their instructional practices. Two of the faculty participants had informational learning experiences while four participants had transformational learning experiences. Although there were similarities, catalysts for learning varied for each participant. Prompts for faculty learning may occur during the professional development session(s); however, learning may occur during or after the event. The results of this study provide knowledge about what types of learning transforms faculty's instructional practices and are important for online learning administrators, various academic administrators, and others who help to prepare faculty for online teaching.

▼ This thesis describes an architecture for distributed computation in mobile environments. Here, the workflow stands for the operational aspect of a work procedure. This notion subsumes the structure of the tasks, who performs them, what their operation structure is, how they are synchronized, how information flows to support the tasks and how they are tracked. The designed architecture is tested in a proof-of-concept implementation named Distributed Workflow Execution Architecture for Mobile (DWEAM). The interest in distributed workflow execution architectures is long-standing. However, there has not yet been an adequate treatment of workflow execution in mobile systems. The benefits of such a system would be collected by users who perform a coordinated task in a complex environment and must establish own coordination infrastructure to do so. Typical users are the members of emergency rescue teams, i.e.~police, fire brigade or medical personnel, when handling an incident, where the cooperation between the team members is hindered by mobility and adverse communication conditions. The communication via the gsm networks, that are used in small scale operations in urban areas cannot offer appropriate quality of service in face of escalation or infrastructure damage. The now-aged broadcast radio (i.e. walkie-talkie) typically does not support the coupling with information systems, as it is is intended for the communication between humans. We therefore consider a system architecture that addresses the communication issues, while being infrastructure-independent and supporting both the work procedures for human operators, as well as that of the information systems. First, the DWEAM problem is put into a broader context of mixed-initiative multi-actor, multi-agent systems. It is seen that DWEAM is but a single component of a larger system, called combined. The unifying description of combined is given, and the requirements for the integrated combined system are given. Following this description, we give an overview and commentary of the related work. We describe the toolkit that is used in the subsequent chapters, which relies on the usage of the Object-Z language, and the process model of the cpn. We then formalize the task of DWEAM, and complete the description of the used framework by specifying the distributed blackboard. We then describe the method used to cast the informal descriptions of inter-related tasks into a cpn. The cpn description is then converted into an implementation using a distributed blackboard. Afterwards the description of the operating environment and the storage model is given. We investigate the connectivity function for a set of nodes in two dimensions. Having done that, we turn our attention to the storage model, where we estimate the performance of the data partitioning to achieve the token preservation. For data distribution, the notions of producers and consumers are introduced, and the Service Discovery Problem (SDP) is defined. The Core-Based Tree (CBT) is afterwards used to provide a… Advisors/Committee Members: Dewilde, P..

▼ AbstractDietary patterns are modifiable risk factors for the development of several diseases, such as obesity, heart disease, stroke and cancer. College years have been described as a time in which young adults begin to establish autonomous decision making in terms of lifestyle choices, and these behaviors can affect long term health and chronic disease risk.1 Numerous studies have evaluated the dietary patterns of college students, and various forms of nutrition interventions and education programs have been designed to improved eating habits of students in college. The majority of research in this area has targeted traditional students. There is limited data, however, about non-traditional groups such as first-generation students. First-generation college student populations differ from traditional college students in several ways. They are more likely to be ethnic minorities, working while attending school, taking care of other family members, and come from a lower socioeconomic background.2 These unique characteristics position first-generation students to be at risk for nutrition compromise. The goal of this study was to evaluate the dietary habits of first generation college students, as well as determining effective interventions that are feasible within the constraints of finances and time. The design of this intervention was a pre-test/post-test. All participants were first-year students residing in the Gen-1 Theme House at the University of Cincinnati. After screening and consent for the study was completed, students completed questionnaires covering topics such as self-efficacy in meal planning, shopping and cooking, as well as food safety practices, eating patterns and food choices. Participants then completed the intervention, which consisted of both online and hands-on learning experiences. The online component involved completing seven self-paced modules related to nutrition, meal planning and food preparation. Participants completed two hands-on cooking experiences, preparing nutritious and cost-effective meals. Following the intervention, participants were re-surveyed to assess for changes in the aforementioned concepts. Paired t-tests were run on each section of the questionnaire. Similar to previous studies, intake of fruits and vegetables were below standard recommendations, which did not improve post intervention. Students’ confidence related to meal planning, shopping and cooking did significantly improve from pre-intervention to post-intervention. Signficant changes were also seen in where participants obtain food, with less from home and more on campus. Considering the timing of this intervention, this is likely at least in part related to the participants moving from home to college and gaining access to University Food Services. Future interventions should consider holding the intervention at a different time of year to avoid recent change in routine, enhancing cooking experiences, and including second and third-year students, as they have less access to campus dining and are more… Advisors/Committee Members: Couch, Sarah (Committee Chair).

▼ This study locates the Blackboard Learning Management System as a Technology Enhanced Learning tool within the bounds of the discipline of eLearning and aimed to interrogate the use of Blackboard for the purposes of teaching, learning and assessment in large classes. It is evident from the literature reviewed that changes in both Higher Education in the South Africa with regards to policy and legislation in addition to international shifts towards increased access and participation in a fast paced, ever-evolving knowledge-based economy, providing the context for this work. The theoretical framework for this study is not unidimensional due to the fact that the educational field of eLearning as an area of specialisation draws on a multitude of theories in terms of their utility value for instructional design of courses utilising Information and Communications Technology as a mode of delivery. This study was conducted within the bounds of an interpretivist paradigm as the researcher sought to focus on the use of Blackboard and the experiences of the lecturers and students involved in the implementation thereof. The research design for this study took the form of a case study and a multiple case method was employed. The researcher collected data through personal interviews conducted with participating lecturers, while student data was collected by means of a qualitative survey which was conducted through the Blackboard Learning Management System. The data was analyzed by means of a thematic analysis, consistent with the interpretive paradigm chosen for this study. The findings of this study revealed that Blackboard was utilised effectively in order to facilitate communication, access to course resources and promoted more efficient assessment processes. The implementation was however not without challenges many of which were systemic and focused on the lack of resources available to the students. The implications of using Blackboard for teaching and assessment of large classes include the use of the Learning Management System as part of a multimodal method of course delivery in an effort to reach the multitude of registered students both conceptually as well as electronically. The recommendations arising from this study include consideration on the part of the faculty for a unified approach in the use of Blackboard for communication as well as deployment of resources. Additionally, this study may form the foundation of further studies in this field, with a focus on the active engagement and training of lecturers in order to integrate traditional teaching methods with blended learning opportunities.

▼ Past research has indicated that e-learning technology is not utilized to its full potential in education despite greater degree of access within higher education institutions. The issues of pedagogy in current e-learning technologies and the importance of interface design in future e-learning systems have also been raised in past research studies. The purpose of this study was to do close examinations of these issues and then investigate them through faculty's perceptions and utilization of Blackboard, a commonly used Learning Management System, at a large Midwestern university. Two specific research questions guided the investigation. The first research question investigated the relationship between faculty members' perception of Blackboard and their perception of Blackboard's design. The second research question was designed to find the relationship between faculty members' capacity of use and their pedagogical perspective of e-learning, as well as the perceptions of Blackboard's design. Open-ended questions were also designed to allow faculty to provide more in-depth description of their concerns with Blackboard. Twenty-six common features of Blackboard were selected and subdivided into three groups: instructional features, interactive features, and visual features. Five Likert-type scales and one check-all-that-apply scale were designed by the researcher to collect empirical data. A web survey was administered to 1208 faculty members. A total of 154 responses were received, which met the desired sample size of 117. Multiple regression analysis was used to answer the two research questions. The result of analysis demonstrated a significant relationship between the perception of Blackboard and the perceptions of the designs of the respective aspects of Blackboard features. A significant relationship was also found in the capacity of Blackboard use with pedagogical perspective of e-learning, as well as the perception of the design of visual features of Blackboard. However, no significant relationship was found in the capacity of use with the perceptions of the design of instructional and interactive features of Blackboard. Analysis of open-ended responses revealed a consistency with past research studies such that most faculty members used Blackboard primarily for administration of courses and very few faculty members considered pedagogical issues when using Blackboard in their teaching. Recommendations for future studies are provided. Advisors/Committee Members: Turner, Sandra (Committee Chair).

As Tecnologias da Informação têm um papel fundamental no quotidiano das pessoas e da sociedade. Este facto tem muito do seu fundamento na crescente importância da obtenção do conhecimento em tempo real. Este conhecimento é ainda mais valorizado no mundo dos negócios pois informação tratada, atualizada, acessível e fiável é crucial para o controlo e tomada de decisão. No que se refere aos serviços, nomeadamente ao serviço da educação universitária, a informação gerada pelas plataformas de gestão do ensino é essencial para a correta monitorização dos processos e da interação entre os alunos, professores, conteúdos e serviços mediados por tecnologia. Mediante um estudo de caso exploratório realizado no contexto da Faculdade de Economia e Gestão da Universidade Católica do Porto, foi possível caracterizar o uso das plataformas, nomeadamente a de e-learning e a dos serviços administrativos. Esse estudo, entre outros objetivos, propunha-se avaliar sumariamente o potencial, a pertinência e requisitos fundamentais para a implementação de um Learning Analytics. O objetivo principal recaía na identificação da adequação deste como conceito agregador da dispersão de relatórios gerados por duas plataformas de gestão do ensino - Blackboard e Sophia. Após a recolha dos dados e a utilização de uma ferramenta para a análise e a agregação dos mesmos numa única tabela foi possível cruzar as várias fontes de informação e tirar conclusões. A ferramenta selecionada para o efeito foi o Microsoft Excel e todas as atividades de compreensão e preparação dos dados foram sustentadas na metodologia CRISP-DM. Pelo que foi possível apurar neste protótipo, não existe uma relação concreta entre as variáveis estudadas – Ocupação da plataforma vs Ponto de Maturação vs Taxa de Aprovação. No entanto foi identificado e reconhecido o grande potencial conceptual do Learning Analytics para estudos semelhantes e de dimensões superiores.

Information Technologies have a key role in everyday life and in society. This is fundamentally due to the growing importance of obtaining knowledge in real time. This knowledge is even more valued in the business world because processed, up-to-date, accessible and reliable information is critical for control and decision-making. As for the service sector, namely at the level of University education, the information generated by the education management platforms is essential for the correct monitoring of processes and the interactions between students, teachers, contents and services technology mediated. Through an exploratory case-study conducted in the Universidade Católica do Porto, it was possible to characterize the use of the platforms, mostly the ones in charge of the e-learning and administrative services. This study, among other objectives, proposed to briefly review the potential, relevance and requirements for the Learning Analytics implementation. The main goal of this study was identifying the potential of Learning Analytics as an aggregator concept of the dispersed reports generated by two learning platforms…

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

This thesis identifies the restrictions that resource-constrained robotic platforms experience in relation to their software architecture and computer vision. It proposes and evaluates a number of techniques to support more effective implementations. A review of robotic software shows that they often implement a message passing framework as their software architecture. This supports maintainability and modularity. However, the loose coupling afforded by message passing systems has a computational cost on performance and inhibits the ease of accessing multiple data sources. Resource-constrained robotic systems do not have the computational power available to support real-time application of a message passing framework. To resolve this, two compile time message routing techniques, Typemap Routing and Link Time Route Generation (LTRG), are presented and evaluated. They are compared against a hashmap and treemap in both single and multithreaded environments and were shown to improve predictability and latency. A technique called co-messaging is identified to reduce complexity in message passing systems through easier data access. Using Typemap Routing and co-messaging, NUClear, a software architecture framework was developed. NUClear's execution time was compared to Robot Operating System (ROS) and through an implementation of NUClear in the NUbots' codebase. NUClear's interface complexity and memory usage were evaluated, showing improvements. The implementation of co-messaging and Typemap Routing supported the development of an Adaptive Lookup Table. It was developed to resolve the issues that resource-constrained robotic systems experience when classifying colours in various lighting conditions. It was assessed against and outperformed a static lookup table. A Visual Mesh was developed to improve computer vision and reduce the computational cost of convolutional neural networks on resource-constrained robots. It was evaluated against a hexagonal mesh and other convolutional neural networks and resulted in improved accuracy and execution performance. Its performance over distance exceeded more complex networks. The techniques developed and the evaluation presented in this thesis are important for the fields of software architecture and computer vision. They offer solutions to improve performance for both resource constrained robotic systems as well as less constrained systems.
