Both high temperature (HT) and intermediate temperature (IT) SOFC performances are investigated using models which are built-in Aspen customer modellers. Moreover, this paper introduces a new simulation software, called Al-Nour V.1.0-2012 software application. The interface of Al-Nour V.1.0-2012 software was mainly implemented based on the educational theory of User’s Split Attention, that is; the entire software works with only one screen for all operations without any scrolling (user-friendly interface). This application reflects the fact that Al-Nour software does not require the user to have any previous training. The performance of HT-SOFC and IT-SOFC models is evaluated and compared using both software applications.The simulation results show that the cell voltage value increases by raising the operating pressure, operating temperature, and hydrogen partial pressure.

On one edge, the focus was on the aspect of using video games in teaching, social settings, and improving humancomputer interfaces (e.g., Malone 1981; ...). On the other edge, the focus was on the negative outcomes and later effects (e.g., Griffiths & Hunt 1998; ...). However, the literature clearly lacks investigating the positive effect of playing violent games on children’s development processes when children act and react alone and without human’s external regulation. Purpose of Study: Given the fact that the world is clearly unable to stop the production of the violent games as avoiding children to play violent games is almost impossible, the present study aimed towards understanding the positive effect of playing violent games on children’s development to clarify what the future research should highly take into account. Stated differently, the present ...

This is especially when the young users act alone and without any sign of Human-Human Interaction (HHI) either before, during, or after learning process. The material was an isolated, computer-based learning environment that acts as a standalone learning environment and used by hundred preschool young users. The participants were randomly selected from ten preschools without revising their medical files. In contrast with the previous work, the participants were distributed and classified by the system itself during progression in three essential groups. The results showed that the young users' response can be used to detect the natural development of inner-interaction and the symptomatology of the young users' developmental problems during learning tasks. The main conclusion was that, the young users followed three paradoxical views of cognitive development during learning tasks and the young users, themselves, can be diagnostic during learning tasks in which the natural development inner-interaction was fluctuated among three paradoxical views. To our knowledge so far, the results and conclusion have never seen in the literate before.

A short case study, which helped us to sate the basis for the design of our next robust survey, has been achieved and the results showed that the violent arousal has a great contribution to the children's SRL. Despite, it was only one short experiment with two of the first author's children aged less than 7 years young, the results were highly motivated us to introduce our hypothesis and that is our main message.

Four developmental measurements with novel criteria were used to measure: (1) speech analysis, (3) SRL as a function of task level selection, (3) SRL as a function of task precision, and (4) a friendly-chat questionnaire to measure children's satisfaction. Two types of intervention (enacted versus verbal encouragement) were applied through computer-based learning environment and investigated by forty preschool children divided by their teachers between the two conditions equivalently. It was hypothesized that children who acted alone (C-Condition) were more PS productive, manifested higher SRL, task performance, and satisfaction. The results confirmed the hypothesis with no significant differential effect of the gender on performance, showed that the injudicious use of encouragement hindered the children's regulation behavior, and proved that PS and TA elicitation were fully different. However, the results were not confirmed Vygotsky's view and simultaneously not fully inline with Piaget's view of self-regulation development.

On one edge, the focus was on the aspect of using video games in teaching, social settings, and improving humancomputer interfaces (e.g., Malone 1981; ...). On the other edge, the focus was on the negative outcomes and later effects (e.g., Griffiths & Hunt 1998; ...). However, the literature clearly lacks investigating the positive effect of playing violent games on children's development processes when children act and react alone and without human's external regulation. Purpose of Study: Given the fact that the world is clearly unable to stop the production of the violent games as avoiding children to play violent games is almost impossible, the present study aimed towards understanding the positive effect of playing violent games on children's development to clarify what the future research should highly take into account. Stated differently, the present study was an attempt towards clarifying the importance of embedding violent arousal as a process of learning. Research Methods: Hundred children (50 boys, 50 girls) who, almost, daily played violent games were specifically selected. Each child was given one hour to play with "CAR-RACING" and "THE-PUNISHER". After the session, a Friendly-Chat-Questionnaire, through nonhumn's external regulator, was achieved with each child where all children's utterances were recorded and tabulated. An extra meeting with children was achieved after the entire session. Findings: Children's self-regulation and thinking-aloud verbalization were affected by the game hero's gender; both were fluctuated even among the same gender where boys showed higher level of violent arousal. Children also showed high level of self-regulation when engaging them as deign-partners that confirmed Agina and Kommers (2008). Conclusions: Despite the negative effect of playing violent games, violent arousal has positive effect on children's development especially self-regulation and thinking aloud to express their mind's content. Thus, the most significant question for the future research on children's developmet is that: How can the violent arousal be safely transferred into children's learning settings to enable children to be "Violent-Arousal-Learners" through "Violent-Arousal-Learning"?

This article involves two parts.

The first question is: Why naming one definition and model of self- ...
