A Case Study on Exploring YOU Artificial Intelligence and GeoGebra in Learning the Method of Variation of Parameters in Second-Order Differential Equations | Chapter 3 | Mathematics and Computer Science: Research Updates Vol. 8

 

The study presents an innovative experience carried out with engineering students at the University of Antofagasta, Chile, during the first semester of 2023.

 

The main objective was to analyse how students describe their learning of the method of variation of parameters when solving a certain second-order linear differential equation, using a combination of the YOU artificial intelligence tool and GeoGebra software.

 

The research was conducted using a qualitative case study approach, which allowed for an exploration of the perceptions of three students as they used these digital tools. The results show that the integration of both technologies fostered reflection and autonomy in learning. The students evaluated the experience positively, emphasising that these tools do not replace reasoning, but rather enhance it.

 

In conclusion, the constructivist nature of this type of activity is highlighted, where knowledge is actively built through the interaction between the student and digital technologies. Additionally, YOU supported symbolic reasoning and computation, while GeoGebra provided a visual understanding of the process, turning the resolution of differential equations into a collaborative and participatory experience.

Using Griffiths III for Quantitative and Qualitative Assessment of a Child with Diagnostic Complexity: A Case Study | Chapter 1 | Medical Science: Recent Advances and Applications Vol. 9

 

Aims: This study illustrates the use of the Griffiths Child Development Scales 3rd edition (Griffiths III) to clarify a diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder and possible other comorbid disorders with attentional and behavioural features.

 

Study Design:  A single case study integrating quantitative data from the Griffiths III with qualitative information derived from disaggregated item-level analysis and developmental constructs.

 

Methodology: A test battery of the Childhood Autism Rating Scale, Conners 3 - Parent and Teacher Surveys, Long Form and the Goodenough–Harris Draw-a-Person test was administered before the Griffiths III. The concept of Theory of Mind is used to examine his difficulties on the Griffiths III Personal-Social-Emotional Subscale.

 

Results: The Griffiths III assessment revealed a scattered developmental profile, with developmental quotients (DQ) both above and below 50. The child demonstrated marked difficulties in:

 

Skills for Learning (e.g. attention, curiosity, processing speed)

Ways of Thinking, Memory, and Play

Language and Communication

Early Social and Emotional Development

These findings, in combination with qualitative analysis, helped to construct a more comprehensive developmental profile.

 

Conclusion: Assessment using Griffiths III added valuable depth to the diagnostic process, particularly in domains where normative scores fell at or below DQ 50. Evaluating children with multiple neurodevelopmental disorders presents challenges in early childhood, where scores alone may not reflect the full extent of the child’s needs. A thorough evaluation is essential when presenting behaviours impede typical development, as it supports the creation of tailored, individualised support plans. This study cautions against a narrow diagnostic lens and underscores the importance of ongoing, broad-based assessments for children presenting with complex or overlapping developmental concerns.

Methodology of Data Collection in Information System (IS)| Chapter 7 | Current Overview on Science and Technology Research Vol. 9

This phase aims to give and explain the components of research methods in information order (IS), and compare between approximate approach and quantitative approach, in addition to justification for use of the record of what happened in information arrangement (IS). Research methodology in a research study is thought-out as an important detail, and therefore deciding the method of research methods is very important step. The qualitative approach design provides reasons to explore the phenomenon, belief building and catching everyday history through data group and analysis. Research methodology is valuable to establishing the makeup of research, such as policy, approach, research philosophy, and elements of the methodology. The main countenance that distinguish the exploratory study from other arrangements are the possibility of ruling the experimental variable or the cause to attain the hypothesis. The aim of research design is to specify a clear picture of the construction of the research as well as the designs used, in the way that data group, research questions, and data beginnings. The research design allows the researcher to outline all essential methods and forms for the research, such as project belief and research methodology.

A Case Study on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Kleptomania | Chapter 5 | Recent Developments in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 6

 Kleptomania is a debilitating impulse control problem that responds well to cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Kleptomania is a disease that affects a tiny percentage of the general population but a far higher percentage of clinical patients. This was accomplished thanks to the findings of a case study. A 20-year-old college student is the subject of this case. The initial complaint was that she had stolen from others as a youngster, with other symptoms that matched the DSM-5 criteria for kleptomania diagnosis.

The goal of this study is to identify the symptoms of kleptomania as well as the factors that contribute to the disorder. In addition to using CBT approaches to treat kleptomania, psychological analytic theory procedures were used.

The clinical interview, thematic apperception test (TAT), and the neuroticism characteristic from the big five personality traits were all used in this study. With these assessments, the origins and severity of the condition were assessed, as well as the behaviour driven and neuroticism trait.

The patient was treated for kleptomania symptoms and neuroticism trait using CBT techniques and tactics, as well as psychological analysis theory procedures (anxiety, anger, hostility, depression, consciousness-self, impulsiveness, stress and vulnerability). The patient regained self-control, negative thinking control, and emotional stability following treatment. The study emphasises the importance of utilising appropriate educational approaches with children and adolescents, particularly gifted ones, in order to avoid severe punishment. Furthermore, it is critical to treat kleptomania as a sickness rather than a criminal offence. Projective assessments and some psychological analytic approaches may be used in conjunction with CBT.

Determination of Students’ Transition from Face-to-Face Learning to Online Learning at Higher Education: A Case Study in Trinidad and Tobago | Chapter 14 | Modern Perspectives in Language, Literature and Education Vol. 9

This action research focuses on the transition of undergraduate students from face-to-face learning to online learning at a Trinidad and Tobago higher education institution. According to a survey of the current literature in the local context, there is a scarcity of information about these students' experiences. As a result, one of the main goals of this paper is to contribute to the lack of knowledge and to spotlight the voices of these kids. It is critical that policymakers pay more attention to and understand the perspectives of these students, particularly when developing policies related to online learning. As a result, a case study was done to learn more about the students' transition experiences. This study included fifteen undergraduates. We used semi-structured surveys and informal structured interviews. The data was evaluated under three primary thematic headings: online learning (ONL) is a feasible instructional choice, face to face learning (F2F) is required for Mathematics, and face to face learning (F2F) is required for human connection. On the utilisation of greater ONL education, suggestions were made.

Sprouting Marketing Tactics for the Micro Cultural and Creative Industry | Chapter 1 | Modern Perspectives in Economics, Business and Management Vol. 3

 Individuals' material wants are gradually sublimated to the pursuit of life happiness and spiritual pleasure as a result of worldwide growth in industrialisation and digitization. Based on this phenomena, the Cultural and Creative Industry (CCI) was founded, and many businesses are focusing on culture, the environment, art, literature, and other areas. According to the literature, these businesses exist as microbusinesses or workshops run by a local foundation, and they are less capable of marketing, advertising, and connecting with new customer groups. Governments have paid more attention to the growth of the Micro Cultural and Creative Industry (MCCI) in recent decades, and have begun to adopt related subsidies, programmes, and professional mentoring mechanisms. However, the reason why MCCI is still having significant problems with product management and brand marketing remains a mystery. This information gap serves as the driving force behind this article. The purpose of the study is to determine the problem and assist MCCI operators and managers on how to determine their products for Profitable Core Trade (PCT) and develop marketing strategies that are appropriate for the industry. The findings and marketing suggestions offered in this study are designed to assist MCCI operators and enterprises in effectively establishing their own marketing strategies and channels, as well as proactive business growth.
