Web-Based Student Peer Review: A Research Summary, Edward F. Gehringer

Edward F Gehringer

Interest in Web-based peer-review systems dates back nearly 20 years. Systems were built to let students give feedback to other students, mainly to help them improve their writing.

And yet only a century later, automatons had begun to represent human repression and servitude, a theme later picked up by writers of science fiction.

Using Positive Behavior Intervention Support For Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder In Inclusion, Marquis C. Grant, Sharita W. Crossen

Marquis Grant

Children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD)often demonstrate behaviors that can impact their academic performance in the classroom.
