... WRL has also been found to improve academic performance of students [6], [7], [1].. On the other hand, WRL provides a source of employable graduates [3] for the employer and as highlighted [8], employers tend to recruit those students who have a working background. For most of these employers, the relatively cheap source of labour provided by students on WRL is an incentive for taking students for WRL [9]. Effectively organized WRL programmes enhance effective linkages / partnerships between universities and various orgainizations / industries as platforms for collaboration are created [2]. ...

... When the ILC selects the appropriate compensation gain, the estimated value of feedforward compensator will converge to u f g (k) at the g iteration and at the finite k time, that is, u f g (k) < , where is a constant [34], and then it can be seen from Equation (26) that the total control law U (k) is also bounded. ...

... after completing all the mentioned trials in the same order. The retention test (R) usually involves retesting people on the same task or conditions [65]. Following Schmidt et al. [66], it was assumed that the results of the test tell us about the persistence of the acquired capability for performance (motor habit). ...

... As is shown in Fig. 3, relatively small is the absolute value of ridge regression coefficient of lnD, stable around the zero axis. According to principles of variables selection based on ridge estimation [40], lnD representing disaster degree of arable land can be got rid of, and it seems that disaster for agriculture in Hebei Province has little impact on carbon emissions. The remaining variables are retained for ridge trace of those become stable as ridge parameter k increases. ...

... The objective of pipe routing is to determine an optimal set of axial control points, and thus it can be formulated as a RL task. In RL, the learner and decision maker are called the agent, while everything it interacts with, comprising all external factors, is referred to as the environment [44]. The RL task is essentially a sequential decision-making problem, commonly represented as a Markov decision process, defined by = ( , , , , ). ...

... OCL is a situation in which learners learn together with the involvement of information technologies, such as the Internet, as mediating tools [21]. Researchers have defined OCL as a situation where discussion occurs collaboratively among the whole class or within smaller groups in an online classroom [22]. ...

... Long (1996) pointed out that correct feedback was of great significance for providing students with correct language input. Waring (2016) and Carlson (1979) also pointed out that teachers' feedback can promote students' engagement and increase the teaching effects. Wang Xue (2018) came up that effective teacher feedback can help student to express their own opinions and create a harmonious environment. ...

... Αρκετά προβληματικό στοιχείο ορισμένων προσεγγίσεων της πολιτικής ψυχολογίας, όπως αυτές που αναπτύχθηκαν παραπάνω, είναι πως εμφάνιζαν κοινωνικές και ιδεολογικές στάσεις των ατόμων ως απευθείας αναγώγιμες και εξαρτώμενες από μία συγκεκριμένη διάσταση της προσωπικότητας. Στο διάστημα των επόμενων δεκαετιών, υπήρξε μία περίοδος ερευνών του αυταρχισμού/δογματισμού κατά την οποία έγινε προσπάθεια να απεμπλακεί το γνωσιακό φορτίο της δογματικής σκέψης από (μεταφυσικές) προκείμενες και υποθέσεις περί προσωπικότητας (Altemayer, 1981). Επιχειρήθηκε να μελετηθεί και να διερευνηθεί ο δογματισμός ως σύστημα γνώσης (προτασιακό ή μη) ή σύστημα πεποιθήσεων. ...

... Associative learning is best described by a single characteristic, that the neural representation of multiple elements can be linked so that excitation of one also excites its associate as a conditioned reflex (Hall, 1991). However, the mere co-occurrence of two events was argued to be inadequate to explain the complexities of learning by conditioning (Wilson, 2012). The Rescorla-Wagner model emerged in the early 1970s to attempt to address these questions (Rescorla, 2008). ...
