This paper deals with an integrated Internet-based education laboratory that allows both practical lab sessions and full-blown research projects to be carried out using state-of-the-art experimental facilities. The setup of a system that controls lab equipment via a global computer network is described, and a distributed hardware and software control facility supporting remote lab operations is considered in terms of its structural arrangement and component interaction. We present a computer-aided dispatch-and-information system that allows students to generate their own experiment scenarios, conduct experiments remotely, and store/process experimental results from their personal cabinets. We also discuss the peculiarities of developing a computerized system to support plasma spectroscopy hands-on education and research. Further emphasis is given to the laboratory modernization, regarding both hardware and result processing software.

Improve Instruction

The Materials Science Department at Iowa State University has developed a laboratory designed to improve instruction in the use of the scanning electron microscope (SEM). The laboratory makes use of a computer network and a series of remote workstations in a classroom setting to provide students with increased hands-on access to the SEM. The laboratory has also been equipped such that distance learning via the internet can be achieved.A view of the laboratory is shown in Figure 1. The laboratory consists of a JEOL 6100 SEM, a Macintosh Quadra computer that acts as a server for the network and controls the energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), four Macintosh computers that act as remote workstations, and a fifth Macintosh that acts as an internet server. A schematic layout of the classroom is shown in Figure 2. The workstations are connected directly to the SEM to allow joystick and computer control of the microscope. An ethernet connection between the Quadra and the workstations allows students seated there to operate the EDS. Control of the microscope and joystick is passed between the workstations by a switch-box assembly that resides at the microscope console. When the switch-box assembly is activated a direct serial line is established between the specified workstation and the microscope via the SEM’s RS-232.

Objective: studying some specifics of providing training in preparing a person for choosing the right solution in the face of most probable emergencies against the background of growing manmade activities of modern society, more frequent destructive natural calamities, political, interracial and military conflicts for the purpose of ensuring human health and safety. In the higher school, such training is conducted in studying a compulsory general professional subject called “Health and safety training course” that takes its rightful place in a set of subjects where life and health are of the first priority on the human values scale and is compulsory for all educational institutions irrespective of their specialization profile. Methods: The subjects of the theoretical part of the course may be of a general nature and be prepared by a lecturer based on a tentative syllabus of the course. At the same time, practical training and laboratory practicals in the course may be conducted as part of the teaching practice of 280401 “Technosphere safety” graduate students that have as a rule had higher education as a bachelor’s degree in the major during their senior years. Results: An extensive list of university majors requires a reasonable approach to choosing subjects for practical training and laboratory practicals in the “Health and safety training course”. It has a special significance in deciding on students’ research papers. Practical importance: A wide variety of subjects in the above training is a singularly burning issue in conducting hands-on training sessions for engineering students and also humanities or economics students in the higher education system (a bachelor’s degree, specialist degree).

Currently, there is a growing demand for methodologies that best qualify engineering students at universities. These methodologies require a substantial change in Engineering Teaching programs improving or even changing the traditional ways of imparting knowledge to students. In Power Electronics (PE) study the factors that make learning difficult for Electrical Engineering students, in order for them to achieve full understanding of the subjects addressed in a first discipline in this area, are the academic maturity required coupled with their multidisciplinary nature. The problem is aggravated in practical activities, which demand the availability of a laboratory infrastructure with specific characteristics not always available. An alternative for the study of PE, with a more contemporary focus, is to introduce, through a new Instructional Design (ID) Project, not only the incorporation of more Hands-On activities that approach truly meaningful (authentic) contents. But also, new methodologies and technologies to support educational objectives that make full use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICTs).This work proposes to develop and carry out a methodological design of a blended teaching for a power-electronics-based practical training program (PEBPTP) for students of the Electrical Engineering Course of the Federal University of Maranhão in Brazil. The proposed program is mainly based on the use of a digital controller (unified) based on FPGA, developed and realized specifically for control and power inverters study. From controller´s VHDL Code already realized, a Reuse Logic Block is generated (Intellectual Property Core (IP Core)), for use within the LabVIEW FPGA Hardware Description Environment. A Graphical Interface (GUI), more intuitive, and developed from the LabVIEW environment, will support the realization of the PEBPTP, for parameterizing the Controller, and show relevant figures of merit of the performance of the converter being study. The active methodologies, converging with the diverse possibilities of resources of the DICTs, implanted in the classroom, with the adequate contextualization of the specific resources of each area, contribute increasingly to the student being protagonist of their own knowledge construction. Finally is proposed, and in full adherence to a novel trend, that both the PEBPTP and the unified controller previously developed in FPGA are embedded in what is being named Lab-on-a-Chip (LoC). This embedded structure will allow access to the laboratory hands-on program via a web service that uses a fully programmable logic device (PLD) that incorporates an integrated structure known as System-on-a-Chip (SoC). The above proposals and experiences involve the mastery not only of curricular and technological knowledge, inherent to the training of an engineer, but of mainly, the pedagogical technological knowledge and correct use of DICTs. At this point, in particular, is founded our contribution within the context of Engineering Teaching, to advance in the improvement or perhaps in the modification of the "classroom" of engineering courses, which today go beyond the physical space of the university.

O objetivo primordial do presente trabalho é analisar o avanço da legislação brasileira, especialmente as leis 12.737/2012 (Lei Carolina Dieckmann) e 12.965/2014 (lei do Marco Civil da Internet), em diz respeito às inovações nas abordagens quanto aos crimes nos ciberespaços (cibercrimes). Posteriormente, far-se-á uma análise dentro do direito internacional, bem como da Convenção de Budapeste que visa solucionar as questões quanto ao mau uso da internet. Justifica-se o presente estudo através do avanço tecnológico do mundo moderno, que por sua vez contribuiu para a criação de novéis hábitos nas “novíssimas” formas de comunicação, que passaram a se valer de meios inovadores capazes de promover diálogo com as pessoas em tempo real e em qualquer lugar do mundo. Entretanto, não só no Brasil, mas emtodos os países em geral o mau uso da internet tem gerado muitos confrontos que ultrapassam as barreiras fronteiriças, como a prática de atos que violam direitos da personalidade, direito de propriedade intelectual e outros delitos criminais. Desta feita, os problemas que envolvem a internet, geralmente, têm suas repercussões extrapolando a legislação interna de cada Estado, que muitas vezes é insuficiente para resolver tal questão. Acredita-se ser, não só oportuna, mas necessária a utilização do Direito Internacional como opção catalisadora para o combate aos males que envolvem a rede mundial dos computadores. Para isso, será utilizada uma metodologia de pesquisa baseada em estudo bibliográfico de natureza qualitativa, pura em relação ao seu resultado, e descritivo-exploratória quanto aos seus objetivos. Palavras-chave: Direito Internacional. Internet. Cibercrimes.     Abstract: The main objective of this work is to analyze the progress of Brazilian legislation, especially laws 12,737 / 2012 (Carolina Dieckmann Law) and 12,965 / 2014 (Internet Civil Law Law), regarding innovations in approaches to cyber crimes (cybercrimes). Subsequently, an analysis will be made under international law, as well as the Budapest Convention, which will address the issues of misuse of the internet. The present study is justified by the technological advance of the modern world, which in turn has contributed to the creation of new habits in the "newest" forms of communication, which have come to use innovative means capable of promoting dialogue with people in time real and anywhere in the world. However, not only in Brazil, but in all countries in general, the misuse of the Internet has generated many confrontations that go beyond border barriers, such as the practice of acts that violate personality rights, intellectual property rights and other criminal offenses. This time around, the problems involving the Internet generally have their repercussions, extrapolating the internal legislation of each State, which is often insufficient to resolve this issue. It is believed to be not only timely but necessary to use International Law as a catalyst for combating the evils that surround the global computer network. For this, a research methodology based on a bibliographic study of a qualitative nature, pure in relation to its result, and descriptive-exploratory in terms of its objectives will be used. Keywords: International Law. Internet. Cybercrime.

ABSTRACT Developed initially by Texas A&M's Civil Engineering Department in 1974 through a grant from the American Petroleum Institute, the five-day oil spill control course was subsequently turned over to the Texas Engineering Extension Service for implementation. Currently the course is offered at facilities in Galveston, Texas. Flexibility within the curriculum allows the course to be directed towards non-industry personnel as well as personnel directly involved in oil production. Techniques current in industrial education, such as the spiral-step method of instruction, are employed throughout the course. Also, the course emphasizes practical training and is unique in its hands-on capabilities. The curriculum, subject to keen scrutiny, is continuously improved and updated. Moreover, the success of this program has encouraged the development of other specialized and refresher courses.

The Impact

Abstract Background Global standards require that spirometry should be performed by trained and experienced personnel, who would be able to assess the correct performance of tests by patients and assure good quality of the result. The complete achievement of this requires a two-step assessment where competency in both knowledge and skills are tested. This study aims to assess the impact of a one-day hands-on spirometry training (Phase1), on the knowledge and application of spirometry among health workers. Methods This was a descriptive cross-sectional study, which describes a one-day (seven hours) spirometry training and skills impartation done at two conference city locations in Enugu and Calabar in the southern part of Nigeria. All the verbally consenting attendees who completed the training assessment tests constituted the study population. The assessment of the spirometry knowledge base before and after the theory and practical sessions, on the various aspects of spirometry, according to international best practices, quality assurance and the interpretation of results, was done and the outcome was analyzed. Factors that could affect the outcome were also assessed. Results There were 64 consenting participants of whom 54.7% (35/64) were females. Theparticipants demonstrated much improved post-intervention knowledge and could satisfactorily perform spirometry, calibration, interpretation of test results and quality control as evidenced by the post test scores after practical sessions were conducted. Pre-test mean scores improved by a mean difference of 12% (p < 001) and were affected by the year of academic graduation and availability of spirometers at the place of work, an effect that was no longer seen at post-test following the hands-on spirometry training. Conclusion The present study has shown that a one-day spirometry workshop significantly improved the knowledge of spirometry practice. There is need to set up more frequent locally-organized spirometry workshops since a one-day seven-hour effective knowledge and practical training would most likely have significant impact on participants’ spirometry practice with its expected positive outcome on respiratory health in Nigeria.
