Given a specific instruction method or environment, some people will learn more effectively than others due to their individual learning style and the grade distribution of the learning would be bell-shaped, with the majority of the learners appearing in the middle of the distribution curve. Several studies show that there is 'No Significant Difference' when technology is applied to instruction , since either in traditional classrooms or in any of the technological environments, there is only one form of instruction, and usually from one source, yielding the familiar bell shaped grade distribution. This explains the 'No Significant Difference' results and indicates that another instruction method needs to be investigated. An approach to achieve 'A Significant Difference' is to provide several different instruction methods. This paper describes Arthur, which is a Web-based instruction system that provides adaptive instruction to achieve 'A Significant Difference'. This is an extended and modified version of a paper presented at WebNet '99 where it received a top paper award. The WebNet conference series is organized by AACE, see

Methods: Citations were selected from a PubMed search and the authors' files according to their clinical and experimental relevance. Results and Discussion: Although experimental and some observational data have supported the fact that estrogens are beneficial for the female vascular system, these positive actions have been challenged by the results of the Women's Health Initiative trial and the Million Women Study, which demonstrated an increase in cardiovascular risk and related adverse events. The role of hormone therapy for the menopause has shifted from a preventive use to a limited role in symptom management, for which it remains the most effective intervention. Baseline evaluation of menopausal women should include individual cardiovascular risk assessment, including hypertension, dyslipidemia, elevated body weight, and the metabolic syndrome. Concomitantly, new factors influencing cardiovascular risk have been delineated among postmenopausal women, namely sleeping disorders, depression, vitamin D insufficiency, rheumatoid arthritis, sexual dysfunction, stress, and psychosocial factors. Therefore, a new landscape may be recognized for menopausal women management. Precise evaluation and treatment of each factor should be separately assessed to improve quality of life and reduce cardiovascular disease prevalence. At present, cardiovascular risk reduction strategies are a requisite (albeit underused) for menopausal women. These include education in terms of health, healthy lifestyle, and pharmacologic preventive interventions to reduce co-morbid conditions. (Fertil Steril Ò 2009;92:1171-86.

The main challenge is to identify and address issues related to designing an effective and efficient speech user interface (SUI), especially if the aim is to facilitate spoken queries of large document databases. Furthermore, the task of presenting large query result sets aurally should be performed such that the user's short term memory is not overloaded. In this paper, a framework allowing information retrieval to large document databases via voice is presented and findings from a research study using the framework will be discussed as well.

Because the majority of counties in the United States are now using either Direct Recording Electronic (DRE) voting systems equipped with Voter Verified Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) modules or optical scan ballot systems, we examined the usability of an audit or recount on these two systems, and compared it with the usability of a prototype Voter Verified Video Audit Trail (VVVAT) system. Error rates, time, satisfaction, and confidence in each recount were measured. For the VVPAT, Optical Scan, and Video systems, only 45.0%, 65.0% and 23.7% of participants provided the correct vote counts, respectively. VVPATs were slowest to audit. However, there were no meaningful differences in subjective satisfaction between the three methods. Furthermore, confidence in count accuracy was uncorrelated with objective accuracy. These results suggest that redundant or error-correcting count procedures are vital to ensure audit accuracy.

The main challenge is to identify and address issues related to the adaptation and scalability of integrating automatic speech recognition (ASR) and information retrieval (IR). In this paper, a Context Aware Language Model (CALM) framework allowing information retrieval to large document databases via voice is presented and findings from a research study using the framework will be discussed as well.
