TL;DR: For instance, the student-teacher ratio is one to one, while at the Defense Language Institute, there is an eight to one ratio as discussed by the authors, which is a significant improvement over the traditional one-to-one ratio.
Abstract: titude towards second language learning. In a doctoral dissertation published in 1958, Miele reported that of all our official American representatives abroad, only one in thirty could speak the language of the host country.' Many people have suggested that the current school curriculum in second language learning could be made dramatically more effective if all schools would imitate the Berlitz school or the Defense Language Institute. This may be true, but the effectiveness of Berlitz or the Defense Language Institute could be a function of ancillary factors rather than the curriculum. Some of these ancillary factors are the student-teacher ratio, motivation, student aptitude, and time. At Berlitz, for instance, the student-teacher ratio is one to one, while at the Defense Language Institute, there is an eight to one ratio. Contrast that with the usual school setting in which there is a twenty-five to one studentteacher ratio.

TL;DR: The study and the comparisons indicated that appropriately created TECH8 e-learning material, yields results that are better than those from traditional teaching but not better than one to one teaching.
Abstract: E-materials and various e-learning systems have become regular features in lower secondary schools in Slovenia and around the world. Many different systems and materials have been created for students, but only a few offer the same amount of individualisation that is present in traditional one to one teaching (one teacher to one student). The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the design and evaluation of an adaptive, intelligent and, most important, an individualised intelligent tutoring system (ITS) based on the cognitive characteristics of the individual learner. The TECH8 model presented is designed modularly, based on a system for collecting a range of metadata and variables that are vital for the teaching process. Prepared in such a way, the proposed system supports individualization and differentiation; because of this, it can be adapted to each individual's level of knowledge and understanding of the subject matter.This TECH8 system was evaluated in a real learning environment. The evaluation sample of the study consists of 117 students from five schools (suburban and urban). Qualitative and quantitative data was gathered with a system for collecting metadata and variables. The assembled data was analysed and statistically processed using descriptive analysis. This data was also compared to data from national assessments of knowledge, which encompassed the entire student population (approx. 5000) in the years 2008, 2010 and 2013. The study and the comparisons indicated that appropriately created TECH8 e-learning material, yields results that are better than those from traditional teaching but not better than one to one teaching. With the help of the collected metadata, optimisation, evaluation and an upgrade of the TECH8 itself will be carried out. In addition, such individualized e-learning systems can reinforce knowledge gained through traditional classroom education. Research question: Is it possible to replace a human teacher with a virtual one?The presented modified version of ITS includes hybrid model TECH8.TECH8 can adapt the learning process to the needs of an individual student.TECH8 does not only symbolise the learning process, but also the social environment.Cybernetic pedagogy and presented model TECH8 can lead to the progress of ITS.

TL;DR: One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) as discussed by the authors is a non-profit organization that has introduced the one to one modality in the use of computers for education in many developing and poor countries.
Abstract: One Laptop Per Child OLPC is a non-profit organization that has introduced the one to one modality in the use of computers for education in many developing and poor countries. It is based in the idea of an âexpanded schoolâ where each child and teacher owns his or her own laptop connected to the Internet. Children spontaneously work in collaboration and teach each other in many different settings at school, at home and in public places. Teachers are not limited to work in a computer lab or computer class in restricted periods of time and are able to coach the development of neurocognitive skills of each cohort of students. The one to one modality reflects a vision of social equity that is beyond sharing arrangements.
