Saved by the (Alexander Graham) Bell: An Analysis of Synchronous Communication and Student Satisfaction / Retention Rates in the First Year Online Composition Classroom

Lynch, Jennifer Jane 01 January 2011 (has links)
Online first-year writing courses, with all of their promise, still maintain alarmingly low retention and student satisfaction rates, driving online curriculum designers to take another look at ways to increase both retention and satisfaction. To replicate the high rates of face-to-face classes, we must revisit and revise our approach to communication in the first-year writing online classroom. Think about it: The online classroom has abandoned a mainstay in education for thousands of years - synchronous communication. Why have we been so quick to dispose of it? Are we now paying the price? This research will provide additional value to the existing body of knowledge through analyzing the findings of several studies and determining if a causal link exists between synchronous instructor / student communication and student satisfaction and retention rates in post-secondary first-year online composition courses. The research will also examine if the student's perceived level of teacher presence impacts student satisfaction and retention rates. From this analysis, this thesis will also draw conclusions and make recommendations regarding professional development policies and best practices regarding synchronous communication in the first-year online composition course.

Realizou-se o estudo, projeto e construção de um inversor de tensão a três níveis com neutro grampeado ou inversor NPC neutral point clamped. Utilizou-se modulação em largura de pulsos por vetores espaciais no controle vetorial de velocidade do motor. Foram realizadas simulações do sistema proposto usando os aplicativos computacionais Matlab/Simulink e PSIM. Realizou-se em seguida uma montagem experimental constituída de um motor síncrono a imãs permanentes de 0,75 kW acoplado a um freio eletromagnético que lhe serviu de carga mecânica. O sistema motor e carga foi acionado pelo inversor com modulação em largura de pulsos por vetores espaciais e os resultados obtidos do controle de velocidade realizado, incluindo reversão de velocidade e frenação do motor, são apresentados no trabalho. Comparou-se também o desempenho de um inversor a três níveis usando modulação em largura de pulsos por vetores espaciais com o desempenho de um inversor a dois níveis usando modulação em largura de pulsos por vetores espaciais na alimentação de uma carga resistiva. Resultados de simulação e resultados experimentais são apresentados. Neste trabalho realizou-se uma comparação qualitativa entre o uso do inversor a dois níveis e do inversor a três níveis que mostra em que situações é conveniente utilizar o inversor a três níveis / Abstract: It is presented the implementation of a three phase three level voltage inverter to be used in the speed control of a three phase permanent magnet synchronous motor using the vector control method. To achieve this goal, it was carried out the study, design and construction of a three level neutral point clamped voltage inverter or NPC inverter. For the control of the motor it was used a space vector modulation. The proposed system was simulated using Matlab/Simulink and PSIM softwares. It was carried out an experimental assembly consisting of a 0.75 kW permanent magnet synchronous motor coupled to an electromagnetic brake as a mechanical load. The motor and load system were triggered by the inverter with space vector modulation. The results of the speed control, including reversal of speed and motor breaking, are presented in the study. The performance of a three level inverter using space vector modulation is compared to the performance of a two level inverter using space vector modulation feeding a resistive load. The simulation and experimental results are presented. In this work a qualitative comparison between the two level inverter and three level inverter was done showing in wich situations it is better to use the three level inverter / Mestrado / Energia Eletrica / Mestre em Engenharia Elétrica
