Trichromatic Theory of Color Vision

/in /by

Annabelle is a creative arts teacher at her local high school. She is attempting to teach her students about colors and add depth to the paintings, short films, or other types of media they create as part of her class.

Part A In a lesson on color, Annabelle describes how mixing colors of light is different than mixing colors of paint. Unfortunately, not all her students are able to distinguish between colors and are having difficulty in their first project, making a color wheel.

Explain how the following theories may impact these lessons in her classroom.

Which is more important in the first year of life, accurate hearing or seeing?

At birth, the sense of hearing is much more dominant than the sense of sight. Normal visual development is the change from just responding to simple brightness or high contrast, toward the organization of details into patterns and the ability to apply meaning to an object or picture.

Is hearing the first sense a baby develops?
Touch is the first sense your baby develops before the senses of smell, taste, eyesight and hearing. Parts of the somatosensory system start to form only a few weeks after conception

Describe how the Lempel Ziv text compression algorithm works

/in /by

Describe how the Lempel Ziv text compression algorithm works, illustrating your answer by deriving the sequence of numbers and corresponding bit patterns it would generate when applied to a string starting with the following 24 characters: ABCDABCDABCDABCDABCDABCD … You may assume that the initial table is of size 256 (containing bytes 0 to 255) and that the codes for “A”, “B”, “C” and “D” are 65, 66, 67 and 68, respectively. [12 marks] (b) Estimate how many bits the algorithm would use to encode a string consisting of 1000 repetitions of the character “A”. [8 marks] 4 Comparative

Describe an algorithm (other than thresholding) that will convert a greyscale image

/in /by

Explain why display devices appear to be able to reproduce (almost) all the colors of the spectrum using only red, green, and blue light.

Describe an algorithm (other than thresholding) that will convert a greyscale image (8 bits per pixel) to a bi-level black and white image (1 bit per pixel), with the same number of pixels, while retaining as much detail as possible.

Explain what specular and diffuse reflections are in the real world. State and explain equations for calculating approximations to both in a computer

Cultural differences between your culture and another country

/in /by

1. Research: Find a scholarly research article that discusses cultural sameness and/or cultural differences between your culture and another country that you believe is culturally different from your own. Briefly discuss the hypothesis, methods, and outcomes involved in the study. Was the hypothesis proven?

2. Compare: Go to Hofstede’s Compare Countries web page (https://www.hofstede-insights.com/product/compare-countries/) and compare your country of origin results with the other country you chose.

Click on the link, scroll down a bit, (do not purchase anything), then put the name of a country in the box and select your country from the drop-down list if available. Once your country appears in the field, put another name of a country right after the first one (your own country) and select it. Compare results. By the way, you can add several countries and produce a very colorful graph with interesting results!

3. Evaluation: Drawing from Heine’s presentation in chapter 4 on considerations for conducting cross-cultural research, evaluate this study and clarify potential challenges you see.

Training needs and developing a training program

/in /by

This assignment is meant to introduce you to this process, and give you experience in identifying training needs and developing a training program. How to Proceed: 1. Decide on a skill or topic that you could teach a friend, family member, or classmate. Note: the topic or skill you choose is less important than the process you follow 2. Assess your friend, family member, or classmate’s current level of knowledge in your topic or skill 3. Design the training session and develop the required materials You will be graded on the following components: Section 1: Needs Analysis – Following the Process that is outlined in the text, you will do a Needs Analysis for your training project. Follow the steps in the text to identify the concern, outline why it’s important, consult stakeholders, and then collect information on the three levels of analysis as appropriate (organizational, task & person). You will use a questionnaire, focus groups, or interviews to gather information and will include information in your written report on how you gathered your information and why you selected the collection method that you did.

Deliverable: Your written report will identify the outcomes of the Needs-Analysis Process and you will prepare a brief analysis of your findings and indicate how this information impacts the necessity of a training program and what could impact the success or failure of your training project Section 2: Design – You will prepare training objectives for your training session. Be sure that your training objectives follow the guidelines discussed in class for writing training objectives. You will prepare a lesson plan for your training that clearly identifies what will be included in the introduction, body, and conclusion of your training session.

Think about what instructional method you will use, and be sure that the method you choose fits the skill or topic you are teaching. You may use any of the methods outlined in Chapter 5 or Chapter 6. Note: You will have to prepare deliverables, so if you choose a technology-based method, ensure that you have the capability to create your deliverable. You will also need to rationalize your design decisions. Deliverable: Your written report will include the training objectives, the lesson plan, and the rationale for your decisions.

Section 3:Development – You will develop the materials that you need for your training session. This includes the materials for the learners and the materials for the trainers. Note: if you think a technology-based method would be most appropriate for your skills, you can provide content maps and explanations if you do not have the software to actually develop them. This might include, but is certainly not limited to preparing: ● activity materials ● handouts ● notes ● quizzes ● activity instructions ● slide deck ● answer keys ● videos ● webinars ● game ● LMS content map Prepare the materials so that any substitute trainer (with some content knowledge) could walk into the room with your plan and teach your class. Deliverable: Your written report will include a copy of each of the resources you have developed, as well as a brief statement of the rationale/intended use of each resource.
