  • Publication number: 20210357842
    Abstract: Examples relate to systems and methods for improving electronic engagement between a participant and a support partner in a computer-based personal development system. A system may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor and containing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform acts. The acts performed by process may include coordinating display on a participant electronic device of a plurality of self-evaluation metrics and allowing a participant to select one of a positive evaluation option or a negative evaluation option for one or more self-evaluation metrics, coordinating display on a support partner electronic device of an electronic notification option for completion of a first self-evaluation metric, and transmitting to the participant electronic device an alert message requesting the participant select one of a positive evaluation option or a negative evaluation option for a first self-evaluation metric.

  • Patent number: 10143334
    Abstract: Collapsible combustion containers are disclosed and described. Such combustion containers generally include a plurality of vertically oriented panels joined by hinges. The hinges include hinge pins that can be configured to form at least part of a base that supports the container or at least part of a heating platform above the container or both. Further, the panels can contain one or more fuel openings which allow a user to control placement of fuel in the container inserted from each opening so as to select a point inside the container where the fuel will converge and combust.

  • Patent number: 5890911
    Abstract: A method and system for computerizing learning, response, and evaluation is provided. The computerized system comprises a central processing unit and related memory and storage capacity to operate a learning, response, and evaluation system stored in a computer program. The learning, response, and evaluation system comprises an authoring portion and a presentation portion. Through the use of intuitive interface elements, the authoring portion allows an author to quickly and easily construct a lesson from a pool of relevant data. Due to the design and capabilities provided, the authoring portion reduces the time it takes for an author to learn how to construct a lesson and reduces the time it takes to construct the lesson. Data can be organized into pages which are presented to the user and pages which are hidden from the user. The presentation portion allows a user to view and learn the information contained in a lesson.
