Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCreating New Spaces for Learning: Fostering Experiential and Service Learning, Journeys through the African American PastDolapo Adeniji-NeillProblem statement: Experiential education and service learning are interchangeable. They are defined as an approach to education that implicitly trusts the learner’s ability to learn through experience, rather than a movement for change that seeks to challenge mainstream education. While literature, research, communities and schools recognize the importnce of experiential education, controversies exit as to their efficacies in learning processes. … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2012 · 9,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCritical Retrospect on Conventional and Luminescent Solar Concentration DevicesHamzah Abdul-Rahman, Chen WangProblem statement: Conventional solar concentrators are only sensitive for the beam radiation and they function poorly in overcast sky conditions. Even under a clear sky condition, trackers are always needed for conventional solar concentrators. Static concentrators always come with a poor concentration rate without a tracker and the light concentrated by normal Luminescent Solar Concentrators (LSC) could not be transported … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2010 · 6,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving the Performance of Backpropagation Neural Network Algorithm for Image Compression/Decompression SystemOmaima N.A. AL-AllafProblem statement: The problem inherent to any digital image is the large amount of bandwidth required for transmission or storage. This has driven the research area of image compression to develop algorithms that compress images to lower data rates with better quality. Artificial neural networks are becoming attractive in image processing where high computational performance and parallel architectures are required. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 26 Oct 2010 · 8,370 accessesView PDFCite
