'Julian Togellius'] We propose the problem of tutorial generation for games, i.e. to generate tutorials which can teach players to play games, as an AI problem. This problem can be approached in several ways, including generating natural language descriptions of game rules, generating instructive game levels, and…

Explicit emphasis on teaching science process skills leads to both gains in the skills themselves and, strikingly, deeper understanding of content. Here, we created and tested a series of online, interactive tutorials with the goal of helping undergraduate students develop science process skills. We designed the…

'Ville Mäkelä'] Tutorials are one of the most fundamental means of conveying knowledge. Ideally when the task involves physical or digital objects, tutorials not only describe each step with text or via audio narration but show it as well using photos or animation. In most cases, online tutorial authors capture media…

We created a self-directed PowerPoint tutorial covering head and neck anatomy using radiological images ([s001]). We developed the tutorial through collaboration between an anatomist, a clinical radiologist, a medical resident, and a surgical resident. All developers were working as anatomy educators, in addition to…

Background Electronic voting systems have been used in various educational settings with little measurement of the educational impact on students. The goal of this study was to measure the effects of the inclusion of an electronic voting system within a small group tutorial. Method A prospective randomised controlled…

The primary problem with the explosion of biomedical datasets is not the data itself, not computational resources, and not the required storage space, but the general lack of trained and skilled researchers to manipulate and analyze these data. Eliminating this problem requires development of comprehensive educational…

Knowledge of space groups and the implications of space group symmetry on the physical and chemical properties of solids are pivotal factors in all areas of structural science. The tutorial contains > 200 PowerPoint ‘slides’, in five modules, arranged by crystal class; a sixth module covers special topics. A ‘credits’…

Background At present, what students read after an outpatient encounter is largely left up to them. Our objective was to evaluate the education efficacy of a clinical education model in which the student moves through a sequence that includes immediately reinforcing their learning using a specifically designed computer…

The better developers can learn software tools, the faster they can start using them and the more efficiently they can later work with them. Tutorials are supposed to help here. While in the early days of computing, mostly text tutorials were available, nowadays software developers can choose among a huge number of…

Tutorial tactics are policies for an Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) to decide the next action when there are multiple actions available. Recent research has demonstrated that when the learning contents were controlled so as to be the same, different tutorial tactics would make difference in students' learning gains.…

Personalized computational neuromusculoskeletal models have great potential for optimizing the design of clinical treatments for movement impairments. While many software tools address specific parts of the model personalization and treatment optimization processes, they typically require significant programming…

experience of video tutorials for feature-rich software Authors: ['Ian Drosos' 'Advait Sarkar' 'Andrew D. Gordon'] Video tutorials are a popular medium for informal and formal learning. However, when learners attempt to view and follow along with these tutorials, they encounter what we call gaps, that is, issues that…

Computational pipelines have become a crucial part of modern drug discovery campaigns. Setting up and maintaining such pipelines, however, can be challenging and time-consuming --- especially for novice scientists in this domain. TeachOpenCADD is a platform that aims to teach domain-specific skills and to provide…

Dataset acquisition and curation are often the hardest and most time-consuming parts of a machine learning endeavor. This is especially true for proteomics-based LC-IM-MS datasets, due to the high-throughput data structure with high levels of noise and complexity between raw and machine learning-ready formats. While…

Teaching chemistry and chemical engineering students about biologics formulation remains challenging despite its increasing importance in pharmaceutical development. Monoclonal antibodies, commonly called mAbs, are the most popular biologics. They have been developed into drugs to treat various diseases in the past…

Today’s biology laboratory courses are primarily instructed by graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) working toward their own graduate degrees in a science field. Even though GTAs are the driving instructional force in biology laboratories, they receive little to no training in pedagogical principles and applications.…

The manufacturing process of batteries can be complex and time-consuming. We introduce a new version of the digital twin of our lithium ion battery pilot line, Simubat 4.0 Gen-2, based on a new combination of Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality. This digital twin is designed to deliver training on the lithium-ion battery…
