Self-directed, open-ended projects can enable students to pursue their own interests and lead to deep learning. However, it can be difficult to incorporate these kinds of projects into a traditional curriculum in which all students must master a set of basic skills. In this chapter, the authors describe the design and implementation of Storytelling Alice, a programming environment that presents computer programming as a means to the end of creating animated stories. By studying the kinds of animated movies that students envision creating, the chapter’s authors were able to design the system such that typical student projects naturally motivate the set of basic concepts we want students to learn. The authors present a potential model for incorporating Storytelling Alice into a classroom setting using open-ended projects. The chapter concludes with a discussion of some directions for future work that may help to enable the use more open-ended projects in formal education.

We identify features of the design and implementation of opportunities to improve the quality of self-realization and cooperation of the individual in the sports and educational environment. The sports and educational environment is determined by the model of realization of the productive solution of the tasks of development, self-realization and cooperation of the individual through “sports”, “education”, and “science”. We define the basic concepts and models that are connected with the functioning of the sports and educational environment, i. e. definition of the concepts of “sports educational environment”, “design and implementation of opportunities for quality improvement of self-realization and individual cooperation in the sports educational envi-ronment”, “models for quality improvement of self-realization and individual cooperation in the sports educational environment”, “functions for quality improvement of self-realization and indi-vidual cooperation in the sports and educational environment”, “principles of quality improvement of self-realization and individual cooperation in the sports and educational environment”, “technology to quality improve of self-realization and cooperation of the individual in the sports and educational environment”, “pedagogical conditions for quality improvement of self-realization and cooperation of the person in the sports and educational environment”; the models, functions, principles, goals and objectives of quality improvement of self-realization and individual cooperation in the sports and educational environment. We detail the practice of theorizing the quality improvement of self-realization and individual cooperation in the sports and educational environment. We highlight the pedagogical conditions for improvement the quality of self-realization and individual cooperation in the sports and educational environment. We prove the perspectives of studying and measuring the quality of the theorization of self-realization and individual cooperation in the sports and educational environment.

This work describes the design and implementation of an escape room celebrating the International Year of the Periodic Table (2019). The main goal of the escape room is that the participants achieve, through the game, both specific competencies, such as basic concepts of chemistry, and transversal competencies, like teamwork and creativity. The most important aspects that must be addressed when creating an escape room (the story, the setting, and the riddles) are described in detail to help and motivate other teachers to implement a similar or related activity. In particular, the riddles are designed so that they give students an idea about the difficulties encountered by the scientists involved in the elaboration of the periodic table as well as to give them a small glimpse of the awe of discovery. The activity is aimed at high school students (ages 15-18) as well as undergraduate students.

Test-teach questioning is a strategy that can be used to help children develop basic concepts. It fosters the use of multisensory exploration and discovery in learning which leads to the development of cognitive-linguistic skills. This article outlines some of the theoretical bases for this approach and indicates possibilities for their applications in child-clinician transactions.

Purpose To provide an overview of communication characteristics exhibited by individuals with Angelman Syndrome (AS) and special considerations associated with the design and implementation of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) programs. Method Results of recent studies exploring individuals' uses of AAC are reviewed, with particular emphasis on factors related to individuals' acceptance and successful uses of AAC systems. Results Not applicable Conclusion Despite their inconsistent access to practices previously found to foster individuals' acceptance of AAC systems, individuals with AS demonstrate the ability to use AAC systems, including high-tech AAC devices, successfully.

The search for best practices in hearing aid fittings and aural rehabilitation has generally used the audiogram and function stemming from peripheral sensitivity. In recent years, however, we have learned that individuals respond differently to various hearing aid and aural rehabilitation techniques based on cognitive abilities. In this paper, we review basic concepts of working memory and the literature driving our knowledge in newer concepts of hearing aid fitting and aural rehabilitation.
