Upper-arm mobility issues can also cause difficulty when interfacing with a computer,since a combination of a keyboard and a mouse is the standard interfacing mechanism. Adecrease of stamina or dexterity in a user’s arm, hand, or fingers can make the keyboard andmouse set-up hard to use accurately or for an extended period of time.

Second, balancing course content withadditional learning objectives requires careful planning. Incorporating every textbook chapter aswell as including additional outcomes such as team building or presentation skills reduced thetime available for in-depth exploration of cybersecurity topics. While integrating theseinterpersonal and professional skills was beneficial, greater alignment or clearer expectationscould have better supported learning the certification material. Third, enhancing student studyhabits and recall ability is essential. Identifying a theory or mechanism for improving students’study

Findings4.1 Differences in the Experiences of the Students Who Had Taken the Course To better understand the participants, we asked questions about their familiarity withaccessibility and inclusive design. Given the postgraduate nature of the course, students camefrom diverse academic and professional backgrounds, resulting in varying levels of experienceand engagement with the course material. For some, this was their first exposure to the conceptsof accessibility and inclusive design. One participant reflected, “I think it’s super important. It’sextremely important. So I did not know about accessibility, inclusive design, any of that before Icame to the iSchool

Different educational settings and programs mayimplement this in whole or in part, depending on their unique requirements. The CRM systemconsists of two major elements. The first element consists of user touchpoints and incentivedelivery mechanisms. The LMS provides a natural interface for system users, and powerful toolsfor automated data collection and electronic delivery of incentives. Other touchpoint optionsinclude text messaging, email, mobile applications, and web-based portals. Special APIs(Application Programming Interfaces) and other technology solutions may be needed to

That is a problematic situation that is tricky to handle, as the score received does not really capture students’ efforts. While the instructor has taken steps against this phenomenon, it might still 19 be present in our dataset. • Finally, we acknowledge that the data we use might not capture all the intricacies that are present in student learning and collaboration. When we believe this might be happening, we have mentioned it in the corresponding section.7 ConclusionActive learning

Background and Related WorkIn computer science, assembly language programming extends beyond its immediate practicalities, suchas direct hardware manipulation and optimized performance. When students juxtapose high-levelprogramming with assembly, they deepen their understanding of how abstract data types, like linked listsor queues, materialize at the machine level. For instance, the direct interaction with memory addresses inassembly language provides a tangible grasp of pointers, often considered abstract in high-levellanguages [1]. Assembly language also exposes students to crucial engineering trade-offs, such asbalancing code efficiency with maintainability [1]. Additionally, its understanding is indispensable foradvanced topics, including

I found that the use ofmore than one programming language also enabled students to more easily see the bigger picture, along with thesupporting the aforementioned learning goals.
