On using markov chain to evidence the learning structures and difficulty levels of one digit multiplication
Understanding the behavior of learners within learning applications and analyzing the factors that may influence the learning process play a key role in designing and optimizing learning applications. In this work we focus on a specific application named "1×1 trainer" that has been designed for primary school children to learn one digit multiplications. We investigate…

Quantum harmonic oscillator sonification
This work deals with the sonification of a quantum mechanical system and the processes that occur as a result of its quantum mechanical nature and interactions with other systems. The quantum harmonic oscillator is not only regarded as a system with sonifiable characteristics but also as a storage medium for quantum information. By representing sound…

Sonification of a Quantum Mechanical System inspired by a Quantum Computation Model
In this paper, we describe the sonification of a quantum mechanical system and the processes that occur as a result of its quantum mechanical nature and interactions with other systems. The quantum harmonic oscillator is not only regarded as a system with sonifiable characteristics but also as a storage medium for quantum information. By representing…

Podcasting at TU Graz-How to implement podcasting as a didactical method for teaching and learning purposes at a university of technology
In this paper a way is reflected how the didactical power of podcasting is used for teaching and learning purposes at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) since more than one year. The variety of different didactical scenarios that are in practice is presented and argued as well as the workflow behind. Advantages and disadvantages…

“UNDERGROUND SOUNDS”-SONIC EXPLORATIONS WITH EARTHQUAKE DATA
Ausgehend von einem tsunamiauslösenden Erdbeben der Stärke 7.8 nach Richter-Skala, das sich am 01. April 2007 in der Nähe der Solomon-Inseln ereignete, beschäftigt sich das aus vier Teilen bestehende Werk “underground sounds” mit dem Phänomen der sich ständig bewegenden und damit klingenden Erde. Über den Echtzeit-Datenserver des Netzwerkes GEOFON werden Daten zu einzelnen seismischen Ereignissen…

Sonic explorations with earthquake data
The composition“underground sounds''-an interdisciplinary project including a concert piece as its artistic element-deals with the phenomenon of the constantly moving, therefore resonating earth and is based on data taken from an earthquake which reached 7.8 on the Richter scale and triggered a tsunami on April 1st, 2007 close to the Solomon Islands in the Southwestern…
