Analysis Platform

Concord Consortium's Common Online Data Analysis Platform (CODAP), a free Web-based data tool designed for students in grades 6-12 and higher, is continuously being updated and developed for diverse projects in data science, science education, and mathematics/statistics education (https://codap.concord.org/). Teachers and students can access CODAP without downloading software or registering for accounts. Although some Web-based technology tools provide certain features for free and require users to pay a fee to use additional features, CODAP has no hidden costs. Devices need only be connected to the Internet using an updated Web browser (Chrome is preferred). CODAP is not optimized (yet) for use on such touchscreen devices as tablets or iPads®.

The Impact

The STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) are very important for education, but the lack of experimental laboratories for these subjects in a school might decrease the interest of its students in STEM fields. This chapter explores these issues in the Brazilian context where, in order to address this issue, remote experiments are used to share real experiments manipulated through the Internet. Teachers and students can use remote laboratories, equipped with real experiments, to put in practice theoretical concepts learned in class. This chapter presents a report on a pilot project that aims to explore the use of Mobile Remote Experimentation (MRE) by teachers and students of public high schools in Brazil. It involves the use of mobile devices to access remote experiments in STEM subjects through the Internet. The report demonstrates the effectiveness of using such educational resources to improve pedagogical results by applying the TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) model to measure the impact of MRE by STEM teachers.

Abstract Objective To discuss and illustrate the utility of two open collaborative data science platforms, and how they would benefit data science and informatics education. Methods and Materials The features of two online data science platforms are outlined. Both are useful for new data projects and both are integrated with common programming languages used for data analysis. One platform focuses more on data exploration and the other focuses on containerizing, visualization, and sharing code repositories. Results Both data science platforms are open, free, and allow for collaboration. Both are capable of visual, descriptive, and predictive analytics Discussion Data science education benefits by having affordable open and collaborative platforms to conduct a variety of data analyses. Conclusion Open collaborative data science platforms are particularly useful for teaching data science skills to clinical and nonclinical informatics students. Commercial data science platforms exist but are cost-prohibitive and generally limited to specific programming languages.

Server Infrastructure

Embracing inapt infrastructure technology is a major threat in developing extensive and efficient Web-based systems. The architectural strength of all business models demands an effective integration of various technological components. Middleware, the center of all applications, becomes the driver—everything works if middleware does. In the recent times, the client/server environment has experienced sweeping transformation and led to the notion of the “Object Web.” Web browser is viewed as a universal client that is capable of shifting flawlessly and effortlessly between various applications on the Internet. This paper attempts to investigate middleware and the facilitating technologies, and point toward the latest developments, taking into account the functional potential of the on-market middleware solutions, as well as their technical strengths and weaknesses. The paper would describe various types of middleware, including database middleware, Remote Procedure Call (RPC), application server middleware, message-oriented middleware (MOM), Object Request Broker (ORB), transaction-processing monitors and Web middleware, etc., with on-market technologies.

Using Data

With a growing interest in data science and online analytics, researchers are increasingly using data derived from the Internet. Whether for qualitative or quantitative analysis, online data, including “Big Data,” can often exclude marginalized populations, especially those from the poor and working class, as the digital divide remains a persistent problem. This methodological commentary on the current state of digital data and methods disentangles the hype from the reality of digitally produced data for sociological research. In the process, it offers strategies to address the weaknesses of data that is derived from the Internet in order to represent marginalized populations.

RaDMaX online is a major update to the previously published RaDMaX (radiation damage in materials analysed with X-ray diffraction) software [Souilah, Boulle & Debelle (2016). J. Appl. Cryst. 49, 311–316]. This program features a user-friendly interface that allows retrieval of strain and disorder depth profiles in irradiated crystals from the simulation of X-ray diffraction data recorded in symmetrical θ/2θ mode. As compared with its predecessor, RaDMaX online has been entirely rewritten in order to be able to run within a simple web browser, therefore avoiding the necessity to install any programming environment on the users' computers. The RaDMaX online web application is written in Python and developed within a Jupyter notebook implementing graphical widgets and interactive plots. RaDMaX online is free and open source and can be accessed on the internet at https://aboulle.github.io/RaDMaX-online/.

Bugscope is a second generation educational project in the World Wide Laboratory that provides web browser based control of scientific imaging instrumentation using the Internet. We had previously demonstrated web based remote access to sophisticated scientific imaging systems several years ago in the Chickscope project. The primary goal of the Bugscope project is to demonstrate that relatively low cost, sustainable access to an environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) can be made available to K-12 classrooms.Methods: To participate in the project, a classroom submits a web based application that describes how they plan to use the microscope. If the application is accepted, a one hour session on the ESEM is scheduled and the classroom mails in their chosen specimen. During their access time, classrooms use a standard web browser over the Internet to control and acquire images from the ESEM (Philips/FEI XL-30FEG).

For ensuring information accessibility for hearing impaired, speech-to-text interpretation captioning is used. Usually, a text interpreter at the site interprets the speech of a speaker and enters a text into a PC. The text is then displayed through a projector or other devices to the users. For Japanese typing, in 1998, a method was developed for a pair of interpreters to collaboratively enter a sentence in which they used dedicated software to convert speech to text and present the resulting text. In the recent years, remote speech-to-text interpretation using the internet has been studied to overcome place and time restrictions of interpreters and users. However, conventional remote speech-to-text systems necessitated ensuring the availability of a network and preparing and operating devices for the system establishment and, hence, could be operated only by a limited number of organizations and groups. To overcome these limitations, we developed a system called captiOnline through which one can perform remote speech-to-text interpretation by simply accessing it through a web browser. In this paper, we explain how to implement captiOnline, evaluate its use in actual situations, and compare it with conventional systems. In addition, we show that captiOnline can realize remote speech-to-text interpretation in a simple configuration requiring less preparatory works.
