self instructional virtual pathology laboratories using web based Technology enhance medical school teaching of pathology
Human Pathology, 2003Co-Authors: Alberto M Marchevsky, Anju Relan, Susan BaillieAbstract:Abstract Second-year medical students have traditionally been taught pulmonary pathophysiology at the University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA) School of Medicine using lectures, discussion groups, and laboratory sessions. Since 1998, the laboratory sessions have been replaced by 4 interactive, self-instructional sessions using Web-Based Technology and case-based instruction. This article addresses nature of transformation that occurred from within the course in response to the infusion of new technologies. The vast majority of the course content has been digitized and incorporated into the website of the Pathophysiology of Disease course. The teaching histological slides have been photographed digitally and organized into "cases" with clinical information, digital images and text, and audio descriptions. The students study the materials from these cases at their own pace in 2 "virtual pathology" laboratory, with a few instructors supervising the on-site sessions. The students discuss additional cases available on the website in 2 other laboratory sessions supervised by a pulmonologist and a pathologist. Marked improvement in student participation and satisfaction was seen with the use of Web-Based instruction. Attendance at laboratory sessions, where the students had previously been required to bring their own microscopes to study histological slides at their own pace, increased from approximately 30% to 40% of the class in previous years to almost 100%. Satisfaction surveys showed progressive improvement over the past 4 years, as various suggestions were implemented. The value of Web-Based instruction of pathology at the UCLA School of Medicine is discussed.

Collaborative Simulation Environment based on HLA and Web Service
2006 10th International Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work in Design, 2006Co-Authors: Hongwei Wang, Heming ZhangAbstract:This paper presents the design of a collaborative simulation framework based on HLA and Web service to make good use of the benefits of these two infrastructures. The framework leverages the Web-Based Technology to provide remote communication with user clients while using HLA for simulation traffic. Integration method, theoretical thoughts, technical considerations and up to date development of HLA and Web service are introduced in detail. To extend the framework towards supports for a knowledge-based complex product design system, an open and extensible environment based on the framework is put forward. Future work is discussed and the conclusion is given at the end of the paper

Timed Extended Invariants for the Passive Testing of Web Services
2010 IEEE International Conference on Web Services, 2010Co-Authors: Gerardo Morales, Stephane Maag, Ana Cavalli, Wissam Mallouli, Bachar WehbiAbstract:The service-oriented approach is becoming more and more popular to integrate highly heterogeneous systems. Web services are the natural evolution of conventional middleware technologies to support Web-Based and enterprise level integration. Formal testing of such Web-Based Technology is a key point to guarantee its reliability. In this paper, we choose a non-intrusive approach based on monitoring to propose a conformance passive testing methodology to check that a composed Web service respects its functional requirements. This methodology is based on a set of formal invariants representing properties to be tested including data and time constraints. Passive testing of an industrial system (that uses a composition of Web services) is briefly presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Exploration of secondary students' creativity by integrating Web-Based Technology into an innovative science curriculum
Computer Education, 2020Co-Authors: Syh-jong JangAbstract:The purpose of the study was to investigate how Web-Based Technology could be utilized and integrated with real-life scientific materials to stimulate the creativity of secondary school students. One certified science teacher and 31 seventh graders participated in this study. Several real-life experience science sessions integrated with online teaching were used for one semester. The study used an interpretive methodology, which was qualitative analysis rather than quantitative analysis. The main data included students' online data, interviews, videotape recordings and the teacher's journals. The results also showed that this study provided information to enhance students' expression of sensitivity, fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration of scientific creativities. Students' creativity was motivated by the online interactivities and the teacher's inquiry. The difficulties and limitations of the teaching and learning environment included strong attraction toward the Internet, poor ability of students in word processing and discussion online, students' utilitarianism due to the pressure of entrance examination, and large amount of time spent on explorative activities.
