Pattern RecognitionPattern Recognition is the ability to notice common characteristics or differences that will createshortcuts or make predictions. For example, suppose the sequence of numbers: 1, 4, 10, 19, and31. Can you describe the pattern? What would be the next number in the sequence? If correctlyidentified, the next number in the sequence should be 46. Even though this is a simple sequence,many algorithms and processes take into account some type of pattern recognition in order toformalize what is happening.C.

For the thirdmodule, students assessed the watershed on a rotating weekly basis by visiting the field site,analyzing data and writing on a course wiki about their observations. Overall, studentassessment results indicated that students believed exposure to the LEWAS was beneficial forlearning hydrologic concepts.24Table 1 outlines the details of the longitudinal true experimental research design52-53 in thesenior-level Hydrology course.
