  • Publication number: 20110039246
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a first datum associated with a student's knowledge of a first learning objective and a second datum associated with a profile of the student, a request by the student and/or the student's knowledge of a second learning objective associated with the first learning objective. The first datum can be, for example, the student's score on assessment items related to the first learning objective. A subset of educational content from a plurality of educational content associated with the first learning objective is selected based on the first datum and the second datum. The subset of educational content includes at least one of a learning object, and assessment or a teaching strategy item. An educational material including the subset of educational content is produced. The subset of educational content is arranged to define a learning path associated with the student.

  • Publication number: 20110039242
    Abstract: A method of publishing an educational material includes receiving a first datum associated with a plurality of functional characteristics associated with a content of an educational material. A second datum associated with a capability of a delivery system to execute the plurality of functional characteristics associated with the content is received. A third datum (e.g., a validation report) associated with a difference between the plurality of functional characteristics associated with the content and the capability of the delivery system is produced. The educational material is then produced based on the third datum such that a plurality of functional characteristics associated with the resulting educational material corresponds to the capability of the delivery system.

  • Publication number: 20110039244
    Abstract: A method includes receiving data associated with a characteristic of a set of students from a educational delivery system. The characteristic can include, for example, a demographic characteristic, a geographical location, a score of an assessment associated with a learning objective from the plurality of learning objectives, a time to complete the assessment, a number of attempts to complete the assessment and/or an indicator of knowledge of the learning objective based on prior educational experience. A first group of students and a second group of students are automatically selected from the set of students based on the data such that first group of students is substantially identical to the second group of students. A first educational material is delivered to the first group of students. A second educational material is delivered to the second group of students.

  • Publication number: 20110039247
    Abstract: A method includes identifying at least one learning objective from a plurality of learning objectives associated with an educational material. A subset of assessment items from a plurality of assessment items is selected. Each assessment item from the plurality of assessment items is associated with the at least one learning objective.

  • Publication number: 20100301076
    Abstract: This invention is a type of adhesive footwear for humans. The adhesive bond between the footwear and foot eliminates the need for shoestrings, Velcro, zippers, or any other type of fastening device. Unlike other types of footwear, the adhesive bond enables the footwear to remain in place and causes less discomfort when the foot becomes wet, sandy, or muddy. The footwear is precut into a shape that makes it capable of fitting several different sizes and types of feet. It is applied to the feet by stepping directly onto the adhesive side of the slip resistant material. Only the material needed will remain attached to the foot, making the footwear as light as possible.

  • Publication number: 20100290332
    Abstract: An optical information carrier is presented. The information carrier comprises at least one active layer for recording/reading data in/from as a result of one- or multi-photon interaction; and at least one reference layer structure associated with said at least one active layer. The reference layer structure comprises at least one dielectric material and is different from that of the active layer in its optical properties with respect to one- or multi-photon interaction. Detection of light returned from the reference layer structure allows to control a process of focusing an optical beam onto an addressed recording plane in the active layer during at least one of the recording and reading processes.

  • Publication number: 20100292595
    Abstract: A hand-held device for acquiring electrocardiographic (ECG) signals from a patient comprises an electrode array with a gripping handle (15) and four electrodes (11-14). The electrodes typically form a quadrilateral array, the array being adapted for placement on the patients thoracic region without the need for upper clothing or underwear to be removed. The device can be used in a method to rapidly acquire ECG data relating to atrial fibrillation and/or flutter without the need for a conventional 12-lead ECG apparatus. The data can be transmitted to a computer for further manipulation and analysis. A kit for putting the method into effect includes the device, a means for communication with a computer and a computer program for running on the computer.

  • Publication number: 20100251210
    Abstract: A method for finding sequential patterns of attributes in a directed graph includes constructing a directed graph comprising multiple nodes and edges between the nodes. Each of the nodes may be assigned one or more attributes. Similarly, each of the edges may be assigned a weight value which may indicate the probably the edge will be traversed during traversal of the directed graph. The method may further include finding sequences of attributes in the directed graph that have some minimum amount of frequency and/or time support. In performing this step, the frequency support of each individual instance of a sequence of attributes may be calculated by multiplying the weight values along the edge or edges of the instance. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed and claimed herein.

  • Publication number: 20100148466
    Abstract: A wheelchair having a lower frame with drive wheels and forwardly extending arms with casters and an upper frame with a seat and backrest. Linkage assemblies on opposing sides pivotably attach at a first end to the lower frame and at a second end to the upper frame. Power cylinders attached on opposing sides are extendable between the upper frame and the lower frame and are lockable from moving from a selected position. When unlocked, the power cylinders apply a supplemental force in association with a force applied by a user on the drive wheels for moving the upper frame relative to the lower frame guided by the linkage assembly. A method of adjusting the seat height of a wheelchair is disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20080230465
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to systems, apparatus and methods for creating derivatives of at least one form of HDL without substantially affecting LDL. These derivatives of HDL are particles with reduced lipid content, particularly reduced cholesterol content. These particles have the capacity to bind cholesterol and are administered to a patient to enhance cellular cholesterol efflux and reduce cholesterol levels in cells, tissues, organs, and blood vessels. The present method is useful for treating atherogenic vascular disease and may be combined with other therapies such as statins, inhibitors of cholesterol absorption, niacin, anti-inflammatories, exercise and dietary restriction.
