Affective domain assessment focuses on evaluating the attitudes, values, beliefs, and emotions of students. It assesses the affective aspects of learning, such as motivation, engagement, interpersonal skills, empathy, and ethical awareness. This type of assessment aims to measure the development of students' attitudes and values, and their ability to apply them in various contexts. It often involves self-assessment, peer evaluation, and observations to gauge students' emotional and social growth. Affective domain assessment recognizes the importance of nurturing well-rounded individuals by assessing their emotional intelligence and their ability to interact effectively with others.AFFECTIVE_DOMAIN_ASSESSMENT.docx

Even when we model the dynamics of the abundances of molecules inside biological systems using calculus, it is important to remember that underlying behavior can be apparently random ("stochastic"). Even a deterministic system containing components moving in periodic ways can, at early times, support dynamics that appear disordered. The behavior of systems containing complicated collections of interacting parts can be difficult to predict with accuracy (chaos). Finally, systems can display stochasticity because the outcomes of measurements on quantum systems are indeterminate in a fundamental way. Random processes are modeled using Markov models.

(This case study was added to OER Commons as one of a batch of over 700. It has relevant information which may include medical imagery, lab results, and history where relevant. A link to the final diagnosis can be found at the end of the case study for review. The first paragraph of the case study -- typically, but not always the clinical presentation -- is provided below.)
A 16 month old female was admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit with fever, hypoxia, altered mental status, and seizures. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain (Figure 1) showed a single well circumscribed intraventricular mass which was isointense to cortex on T1-and T2-weighted images, and demonstrated mildly restricted diffusion consistent with dense cell packing. The mass measured 4x4x4 cm in the craniocaudal, AP and transverse dimensions. FLAIR imaging revealed mass effect secondary to the tumor causing trapping of the left temporal horn. There was additional, but mild right lateral ventricular dilatation and an 11 mm midline shift as measured at the level of the anterior portion of the third ventricle. Edema was seen along the corpus callosum, surrounding the mass extending into the left occipital lobe, temporal lobe, and parietal lobe. These signal characteristics were most suggestive of an intraventricular meningioma or a supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor.
Are you interested in building and testing your own imaging radar system? …
Are you interested in building and testing your own imaging radar system? MIT Lincoln Laboratory offers this 3-week course in the design, fabrication, and test of a laptop-based radar sensor capable of measuring Doppler, range, and forming synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. You do not have to be a radar engineer but it helps if you are interested in any of the following; electronics, amateur radio, physics, or electromagnetics. It is recommended that you have some familiarity with MATLAB®. Teams of three students will receive a radar kit and will attend a total of 5 sessions spanning topics from the fundamentals of radar to SAR imaging. Experiments will be performed each week as the radar kit is implemented. You will bring your radar kit into the field and perform additional experiments such as measuring the speed of passing cars or plotting the range of moving targets. A final SAR imaging contest will test your ability to form a SAR image of a target scene of your choice from around campus; the most detailed and most creative image wins.

Think about the many sets of data you may encounter in your daily activities. You may track your finances, follow statistics for your favorite sport, watch stock market trends, or pay attention to weather records such as temperature and precipitation. News reports often include graphs that you must understand in order to follow an argument. And of course, scientists use graphs to summarize and convey information and to support hypotheses. Before the days of computers, people had to record data and perform calculations by hand. In fact, the original use of the word "computer" was to describe a person whose job was doing arithmetic. At that time, a spreadsheet was a piece of paper with ruled lines forming rows and columns where data could be written in. Today, most people use computer spreadsheets in the form of software such as Microsoft Excel -- , but the basic idea remains the same. Student materials for this exercise include a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet with marked cells and several charts and the instruction sheet (MS Word). The exercise is divided into three parts. Part I introduces the capability of a spreadsheet to handle a large dataset containing worldwide earthquake epicenters from October 2011 and plots a scatter chart of these data, which is equivalent to a map. In Part II, students work with several different types of charts (column, bar, pie, and triangle charts) and use tables and charts to answer questions about Earth's interior. Part III involves entering a formula using cell names, learning to fill down, and discovering how relative and absolute cell names work. This work is done in the context of Earth's interior layers.

"People can learn a lot from clinical trials -- like whether a new treatment works, whether it has serious side effects, or whether it would be cost-effective. How much a trial tells us, though, depends on what the researchers looked for and how they measured those outcomes. Unfortunately, people doing trials often don’t consult with patients -- or even with other researchers -- about what outcomes to focus on. With each researcher choosing their own outcomes to measure, comparisons between trials are difficult, and without input from patients, the most relevant ones are sometimes missed. It’s increasingly clear that selecting relevant outcomes is an important part of trial design, and that standardization could get more out of each trial, reduce waste in research, and move science and health care forward faster. To help, the COMET Initiative has written a new handbook on how to choose the most important outcomes..."

"We eat and speak with them, but our tongues may be even more important than we think. In a condition called ankyloglossia, also known as tongue-tie, the tongue is tethered more tightly than normal to the bottom of the mouth by the lingual frenulum. While this is usually considered relatively harmless, new work from dental and sleep experts at UCLA and Stanford suggests tongue mobility is critical for proper development of the jaw and facial tissues. In the study, researchers evaluated tongue mobility in 302 patients using the Tongue Range of Motion Ratio and the Kotlow free tongue measurement. All measurements were performed in triplicate to ensure consistency and accuracy. Each participant also had dental casts made and X-rays taken to capture anatomical features of the teeth, mouth, and face. Most people had normal or only slightly diminished tongue ranges, although some had more severe restrictions..."

After completing the associated lesson, students test their understanding in two programming tasks that utilize LEGO MINDSTORMS(TM) NXT robots and sound/touch sensors. In the first challenge, students become acquainted with wait blocks by designing programs to simply make robots move forward until "hearing" a noise, and then turn left. The second, more challenging activity pushes students to fully understand the potential of wait blocks. They create programs that make the robots change speed several times when a touch sensor is pressed. Students gain practice in the iterative design-program-test-redesign process. A PowerPoint® presentation, pre/post quizzes and worksheet are provided.
