Measuring Computer Literacy of Teacher Trainers

Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1988
The creation of sufficient numbers of trainers prepared to train teachers in the use of computers has been a difficult task. Work by the Training Modules for Trainers Project has been addressing this problem using a trainer of trainers model. A core group of fifty trainers has been created by the project, in addition to a series of fourteen resource ...

A do-it-yourself computer vision based robotic ball throw trainer

Proceedings of the 19th Annual International Conference on Mobile Systems, Applications, and Services, 2021
We demonstrate a self-training system for sports involving throwing a ball. We design a do-it-yourself (DIY) machinery that can be assembled using off-the-shelf items and integrates computer vision to visually track the ball throw accuracy. In this work, we demonstrate a system that can identify if the ball went through the hoop and approximately in ...

Distributed training: the MSU computer laboratory departmental trainer program

Proceedings of the 15th annual ACM SIGUCCS conference on User Services - SIGUCCS '87, 1987
With the advent of microcomputers, distributed computing is here to stay. With distributed computing comes distributed expertise; people must learn to run their own computing centers, no matter what the size of the computers. In trying to deal with increased demands for training in a limited-resource environment, we have taken the natural step of ...

Transfer of Skill from a Computer Game Trainer to Flight

Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1994
An experimental study was conducted to test the transfer of skills from a complex computer game to the flight performance of cadets in the Israeli Air Force flight school. The context relevance of the game to flight was argued on the basis of a skill-oriented task analysis, using the framework provided by contemporary models of the human processing ...
