在科學技术不断发展的今天,机器人在人们的生活中发挥着越来越重要的作用。但是, 机器人在工作时也会出现一些问题,让人们困扰不已。
  Robots really are taking over the world. Theyre writing novels——the first was ! the Road, published in 2018. And theyre making lunch: The California restaurant chain CaliBurger is trying out a robot that can make 2,000 burgers a day. How human can compete with robots一 especially given that androids dont complain, ask for raises, or get drunk at the office Christmas party?
  Now lets take a look at another side of robotkind, one thats all too human. Heres a by- no-means-complete list of failed attempts by automatons to replace us flesh-and-bone types.
  You call that service?
  A few years back, the Henn na Hotel in Nagasaki, Japan, hired 243 robots to cover positions ranging from concierge (看门人)to bellhop (杂役使者).Unfortunately, the check-in robots had trouble answering guestsquestions and photocopying passports, while bellhop robots kept banging (猛击)into walls and falling over. Not long after the experiment began, the hotel "fired# half of the robots. And they didnt get their tips, either.
  
  Stop the presses!

In 2017, the Los Angeles Times published a story about a 6.8 earthquake that shook Santa Barbara, California. You would expect such a large quake to have gotten a lot of press coverage. And it did in 1925, when the earthquake happened. It turned out that the report was produced by a computer program called the Quakebot, which generates articles based on notices from the US Geological Survey. When a staffer at the USGS made an error while updating the historical data, the Quakebot jumped on it as if it were breaking news. Soon,
  Southern Californians were frightened in their boots over a non-earthquake.
  You look familiar
  Facial recognition software has one pro?blem一it can"t always recognize faces. The American Civil Liberties Union proved that point when it used the Amazon Rekognition software to match mug shots of criminals to 28 members of Congress. But what about soccer ball recognition? During a match last year, the
  
  Scottish soccer team used Al-programmed video cameras designed to automatically follow the ball. Alas, the cameras constantly mistook the referee"s bald head for the soccer ball. One helpful viewer called the team to suggest supplying the referee with a toupee (假发).
  Whatever you do, dont anger Sophia
  "Sophia# is a social humanoid robot de?veloped by Hanson Robotics. She has an att?ractive face, with a square jaw, high cheekbones, and impressive eyebrows. And she can hold a conversation. This is surely the robot of the future. When CEO David Hanson and
  Sophia appeared on one of CNBC’s programs, Hanson asked the robot the question humans have been asking themselves about robots for
  years:

【摘 要】    人才培养在乡村建设中一直占据着重要地位。新中国成立以来开展了形式多样的乡村人才培养创新探索。从办学规模和层次来看,影响深远的主要为“共大”半工(农)半读模式和电大“一村一”模式。这两种模式分别切合不同时代的乡村建设需求,工学结合且注重实践教学,多快好省地开展乡村人才培养,形成了一系列经验。针对当前乡村人才培养中存在的系统性、连贯性、针对性不强,吸引力不足,配套制度不健全等问题,
【摘 要】  公民的终身学习现状与需求是我国学习型社会建设的重要决策依据。西部地区终身学习实践起步较晚,发展不均衡,公民的终身学习状况亟待明确。本研究以陕西省为例,采用分层抽样和方便抽样相结合的方法开展问卷调查,对745份有效问卷从终身学习认知和参与、内容与途径、需求与满意度等方面进行深入分析。研究发现,被调查者:①对终身学习的内涵理解以正规学习为主,对非正规、非正式学习的认知不足,学习时间和费用

【摘 要】   虚拟现实(VR)技术对计算机支持的协作学习(CSCL)有重要的能供性,但如何将其更好地应用于教育实践是一个颇具争议的问题。针对协作学习中VR对学习者认知、技能、情感的影响效果以及不同知识类型、学段和VR类型的调节效应,本研究采用元分析方法对2007—2019年间VR支持下协作学习的实验与准实验研究进行量化分析;使用随机效应模型对得到的40篇有效文献进行效应值(ES)计算。结果显示

【摘 要】由于移动技术在高等教育中的作用日益重要,因此必须探索相应的理论框架,为可持续使用移动技术开展有效的教与学活动提供坚实基础。本文回顾总结了2005年以来所出现的三种有影响却又明显不同的移动学习理论,并从两个方面对它们进行比较和对比,即它们所采用的移动学习定义的性质以及与作为其理论框架基础的现有学习理论和教学理念之间的关系。本文根据文献分析结果提出了创建一种实用的移动学习评估框架(Mobil
【摘 要】  微课因其短小精悍、授课形式丰富多样等特点而成为移动学习、碎片化学习以及翻转课堂教学中较为重要的资源形式。采用内容研究法,以教育部全国高校教师网络培训中心于2014年3月至2015年8月举办的“第二届全国高校微课教学比赛”中的576份获奖作品为研究对象,对获奖作品的视频粒度、课程类型、教学设计和制作技术四个方面进行分析,总结我国高校教师微课建设现状以及存在的问题。从问题出发,在改进微课
