Edwin Gordon （1989, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2007） and promoted internationally by various institutions and organizations specifically accredited. It describes the influence of the videotaped supervision on the process, functions of monitoring, and evaluation of educational practices, starting with an empirical model that has guided the interventions in a study of supervision on training aimed at consolidating and developing professional skills in music education in early childhood. This paper sought to understand： the kind of practices, interactions, communications developing during an educational actions, the existence of a consistent relationship between the principles expressed in the MLT and their application, the type and benefits of supervision performed by of video recording on stakeholders in terms of change in professional behavior, and finally whether the active supervision could be comparable with other kinds of approaches.展开更多

Understanding the interrelation between information diffusion in online social media and user web interests can help the web ecosystem stakeholders in developing new services and designing efficient systems with optimized resources. This paper explores whether or not one can infer the trends of topics in the web by observing the Twitter microcosm. Using data- sets collected from Twitter and two representative web services （Google and Alexa）, this work con- ducts a comparative analysis between trending patterns of topics in Twitter and in the web by consid- ering both the temporal and spatial perspectives, and finds that individual topics in Twitter and in the web share similar trending patterns both from the temporal and spatial aspects. Nevertheless, the tren- diness in Twitter can precede for a few hours and is highly unstable compared to the one in web. The application of these findings is also discussed on ad keywords planning in Search Engine Marketing.展开更多

The introduction of e-learning in higher education in the late 1990s has opened Pandora＇s Box, and brought radical changes in the way where undergraduate and postgraduate programs are designed and delivered. The rapid developments and popularity ofhandheld devices such as smart phones and tablet PCs using wireless networks and mobile Intemet have marked new developments in higher education, introducing the so-called mobile leaming （m-learning）. This means that university students can have access to their studies related content, anytime, anywhere in a personalized manner; this is what renders m-learning so popular and fashionable among university students globally. Nevertheless, instructors are now challenged as they have to adopt new pedagogies in learning and teaching. This paper discusses the concept of m-learning, as well as the current developments and challenges related to the major stakeholders （educators and students） in higher education.展开更多
