The Contribution of Openness to Transforming Education
(European Journal of Education, 2015-12)
Reflecting on what learning prepares for today means facing the paradoxical distance
between the increasing level of 'openness' in business, entertainment and 'out of school'life
and the resistance to opening up formal ...

Physical Fitness Comparison and Quality of Life between Spanish and Serbian Elderly Women through a Physical Fitness Program
(Collegium Antropologicum, 2015-06)
The aim of this study was to compare the physical fitness and quality of life related to the health of a sample population of older adult women from Spain and Serbia (60-69 years). A total of 127 female participants of ...
Local convergence for multi-point-parametric Chebyshev–Halley-type methods of high
(Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2015-07)
We present a local convergence analysis for general multi-point-Chebyshev-Halley-type methods (MMCHTM) of high convergence order in order to approximate a solution of an equation in a Banach space setting. MMCHTM includes ...
A variant of Steffensen-King's type family with accelerated sixth-order convergence and high efficiency index: Dynamic study and approach
(Applied Mathematics and Computation, 2015-02)
First, it is attempted to derive an optimal derivative-free Steffensen-King's type family without memory for computing a simple zero of a nonlinear function with efficiency index 4(1/3) approximate to 1.587. Next, since ...
Strategy-focused writing instruction: Just observing and reflecting on a model benefits 6th grade students
(Contemporary Educational Psychology, 2015-04)
Three groups of typically-developing 6th grade students (total N = 62) each completed strategy-focused writing training. Using a combined lagged-group and cross-panel design we assessed the effectiveness of a sequence of ...
Extended convergence results for the Newton–Kantorovich iteration
(Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2015-10)
We present new semilocal and local convergence results for the Newton–Kantorovich method. These new results extend the applicability of the Newton–Kantorovich method on approximate zeros by improving the convergence domain ...
A Visual Analytics Method for Score Estimation in Learning Courses
(Journal of Universal Computer Science, 2015-01)
The provision of awareness is a well-known method for fostering students' self-reflection, a metacognitive skill often related to academic success and considered one of the key skills of the 21st century. Although the ...
Enlarging the convergence domain of secant-like methods for equations
(Taiwanese Journal of Mathematics, 2015-04)
We present two new semilocal convergence analyses for secant-like methods in order to approximate a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation in a Banach space setting. These methods include the secant, Newton's ...
