21st Century eTraining: Course Based Online Instruction for Library EmployeesSee, Andrew, Teetor, Travis 11 1900 (has links)
Presented at the Arizona Library Association Conference, November 2013. / In the Fall of 2012, The Access and Information Services Team (AIST) at the University of Arizona Libraries instituted the use of a Course Management System (CMS) to effectively train both classified staff and student workers in a ubiquitous and self-paced eLearning environment. Through the use of the tools embedded in the CMS along with the creation of self-paced online tutorials and competency based quizzing, the AIST team has significantly reduced staff time allocated to in person training and increased efficiencies in providing uniform circulation, reference, and policy training that is available to students and staff on a 24/7 basis. The training sites provide an all-inclusive environment for both trainees in gaining competency in core skills needed to staff a 24 hour library, as well as for supervisors to be able to effectively track and manage staff and student progress.

ARE U.S. BASED 'JIHADI' INSPIRED TERRORISTS TRANSITIONING AWAY FROM PHYSICAL TRAINING CAMPS TO ONLINE TRAINING CAMPS?Clayton, Ashleigh Nicole 01 March 2018 (has links)
This thesis is an examination of the backgrounds of twenty-five individuals who conducted a ‘jihad’ inspired terrorist attack within the United States between the years of 2001 and 2016 to determine if terrorists use physical training camps or online training camps as the main method of training to prepare for their attacks.
The debate about the existence of online training camps is beneficial to the field of terrorism study. However, the question of what constitutes an online training camp must first be answered before it can be determined if terrorists are using online training camps. This thesis proposes a comprehensive definition for the term ‘online training camp;’ in an attempt to provide an analytical basis for the examination of U.S. based terrorist training to further the academic discussion.
Additionally, it is suggested from the empirical examination of U.S.-based terrorist training backgrounds that terrorists appear to be engaging in supplemental self-directed online learning in combination with physical training, rather than a complete abandonment of physical training.

Whether Generic Model Works for Rapid ERP-based BCI CalibrationJin, Jing, Sellers, Eric W., Zhang, Yu, Daly, Ian, Wang, Xingyu, Cichocki, Andrzej 01 January 2013 (has links)
Event-related potential (ERP)-based brain-computer interfacing (BCI) is an effective method of basic communication. However, collecting calibration data, and classifier training, detracts from the amount of time allocated for online communication. Decreasing calibration time can reduce preparation time thereby allowing for additional online use, potentially lower fatigue, and improved performance. Previous studies, using generic online training models which avoid offline calibration, afford more time for online spelling. Such studies have not examined the direct effects of the model on individual performance, and the training sequence exceeded the time reported here.The first goal of this work is to survey whether one generic model works for all subjects and the second goal is to show the performance of a generic model using an online training strategy when participants could use the generic model. The generic model was derived from 10 participant's data. An additional 11 participants were recruited for the current study. Seven of the participants were able to use the generic model during online training. Moreover, the generic model performed as well as models obtained from participant specific offline data with a mean training time of less than 2. min. However, four of the participants could not use this generic model, which shows that one generic mode is not generic for all subjects. More research on ERPs of subjects with different characteristics should be done, which would be helpful to build generic models for subject groups. This result shows a potential valuable direction for improving the BCI system.

Effect of distance learning technology as a training delivery system for rural and small law enforcement agenciesJohnson, Thomas C 15 December 2007 (has links)
This study examined the perceptions of law enforcements officers employed by rural and small law enforcement agencies on the effectiveness of the use of distance education technology as a delivery system for training programs. Four research questions were designed to assess officers’ perceptions. This study used both quantitative and qualitative analysis of data to assess these questions. Quantitative data were collected through the use of a pretest and post-test, and a survey. Qualitative data were collected through observations of subjects’ interaction with the treatment, interviews with participants, reviews of survey comments, and analyses of budget documents. The results of this study suggested that officers found the use of distance education technology as a means for delivering training courses to be effective. Agencies should ensure that their technology is compatible with the modality in which the course is presented and that their officers are trained in the use of this technology. Course material should include core information and supplemental material similar to that found in traditional face-toace courses. Online courses should contain the same structure as found in traditional face-toace courses. The environment in which the learning occurs should be comfortable, distractionree, and suitable for engaging in online learning.

Designing an Online Stroke Training Program for Healthcare Professionals: Enactment and RecallWelén, Olivia, Arvidsson, Sara January 2024 (has links)
E-learning within the healthcare sector is increasing in use and popularity. Implementing an online training program is especially useful in healthcare sectors where the working environment often is stressful since it allows for some flexibility. This thesis investigates how an online training program can be constructed accounting for healthcare professionals’ (HCP) needs in their use of a stroke diagnosis and rehabilitation tool, and specifically how using enactment when completing the training program affects subsequent recall after a 24-hour delay compared to not using enactment. The study consisted of two parts, a survey of current users’ experiences of a stroke diagnosis and rehabilitation tool and a quasi-experiment. The survey included 19 experienced occupational therapists and physiotherapists and revealed insights to training satisfaction, usability challenges and desired improvements. Partly based on the results from the initial survey, a subsequent online stroke training program was developed and tested in a quasi-experiment involving 16 healthcare students out of which eight enacted actions and eight did not enact during training. The online training program consisted of videos, text and knowledge and subjective experience questions. After a 24-hour delay a final questionnaire containing training contents questions was distributed. The results showed no significant difference in recall between the groups on factual knowledge of the tool. A slight difference in favor of the enactment design in one of the questions assessing participants' confidence was found. Further research on how enactment affects knowledge versus subjective experience questions with larger samples is suggested.

MIMO Channel Prediction Using Recurrent Neural NetworksPotter, Chris, Kosbar, Kurt, Panagos, Adam 10 1900 (has links)
ITC/USA 2008 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Fourth Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 27-30, 2008 / Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, San Diego, California / Adaptive modulation is a communication technique capable of maximizing throughput while guaranteeing a fixed symbol error rate (SER). However, this technique requires instantaneous channel state information at the transmitter. This can be obtained by predicting channel states at the receiver and feeding them back to the transmitter. Existing algorithms used to predict single-input single-output (SISO) channels with recurrent neural networks (RNN) are extended to multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels for use with adaptive modulation and their performance is demonstrated in several examples.

Relationship of Computer Self-Efficacy and Self-Directed Learning Readiness to Civilian Employees’ Completion of Online CoursesLenahan-Bernard, Joan 01 January 2014 (has links)
Relationship of Computer Self-Efficacy and Self-Directed Learning Readiness to Civilian Employees’ Completion of Online Courses. Joan M Lenahan-Bernard, 2014, Applied Dissertation, Nova Southeastern University, Abraham S. Fischler School of Education. ERIC Descriptors: Computer Self-Efficacy, Self-Directed Learning, E-Learning. This study investigated the relationship of computer self-efficacy (CSE) and self-directed learning readiness (SDLR) to civilian employees’ completion of online courses. A mixed methods design was used to answer five research questions: What is the relationship between CSE and federal civilian employees’ completion of online courses? What is the relationship between SDLR and federal civilian employees’ completion of online courses? What do civilian employees identify as the relationship between CSE and SDLR and their decision to complete or not complete online courses? What do civilian employees identify as the relationship between the workplace environment and their decision to complete or not complete online courses? What results emerge from comparing quantitative data and qualitative data regarding the relationship between CSE and SDLR and civilian employees’ decisions to complete online courses? Ninety-eight civilian employees completed the Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale (SDLRS) and the Computer Users Self-Efficacy (CUSE) Scale. Archival data were used to measure course completion. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to determine the relationship of CSE and SDLR to the completion of online courses Interviews were conducted to obtain insight into the relationship between CSE and SDLR and civilian employees’ decision to complete online courses. Qualitative data were organized according to the principles of SDLR theory and themes. A merged data display shows responses aligned with questionnaire scores and completion status. Findings showed no statistically significant relationship between the percentage of online courses completed and CSE (r=.04, p=.72, N=98) or between the percentage of online courses completed and SLDR (r=-.15, p=.15, N=98). The relationship between SDLR and CSE was statistically significant (r=.21, p=.035, N=98) which is supported in the literature. Qualitative analysis showed that civilian employees were frustrated by poor design, outdated nature, and irrelevance of most online courses and resources they were expected to use.
