Excerpt from Practical Selections: From Twenty Years of Normal Instructor and Primary Plans Did you ever complete a task that throughout all its accomplishing had been a great joy to you, and then wonder whether those for whom the work was designed would respond to your spirit of pleasure? If you have, you will appreciate my condition of mind at the time of this writing, when the volume is ready to go out to its thousands of readers. It will interest you to learn just why it was that "Practical Selections" was published; how it happened that such a rather unique volume came to be made. Let me tell you. "Normal Instructor," one of the best known and the most widely circulated of educational magazines, commenced publication in November, 1891. In the fall of 1912, therefore, it will come to the twenty-first milestone of its life. You will agree that such an event was not to be passed over lightly, being of real importance in the educational field and in publishing circles; and a matter of personal pride to the large family of "Normal Instructor" readers, and to its founders and makers. Several plans for a suitable celebration were broached and discussed, but the idea of putting into a substantial and permanent form some of the best contributions that had appeared in the magazine during the twenty years of its existence appealed most strongly to those directly interested. A reason for this was the fact that hundreds of requests for magazines containing some popular article are received yearly, and these demands frequently can not be met because the issues have been exhausted. Such a book would perpetuate many of the good things that have been so eagerly sought in the years past It was decided that the companion magazine," Primary Plans, ' ' which, it may surprise you to learn, has attained already half the age of the older magazine, should not be slighted; that it should be drawn upon for its share of contributions, for the two magazines are one in spirit and aim. Perhaps it may have been my long continued interest in "Normal Instructor," my connection with it as reader for many years and, later, as regular contributor to its columns, that determined the "powers that be" to entrust me with the building of the work that should stand as a memorial to tho coming-of-age of the magazine. The task was taken up with mingled feelings of pride, fear and pleasure. Pride in the wealth of material that was mine to command, fear that justice could not be done to it, and pleasure that was certain to be found in the fascinations of reading, selecting and the final choosing.

A unique and comprehensive text on the philosophy of model-based data analysis and strategy for the analysis of empirical data. The book introduces information theoretic approaches and focuses critical attention on a priori modeling and the selection of a good approximating model that best represents the inference supported by the data. It contains several new approaches to estimating model selection uncertainty and incorporating selection uncertainty into estimates of precision. An array of examples is given to illustrate various technical issues. The text has been written for biologists and statisticians using models for making inferences from empirical data.

The process of developing predictive models includes many stages. Most resources focus on the modeling algorithms but neglect other critical aspects of the modeling process. This book describes techniques for finding the best representations of predictors for modeling and for nding the best subset of predictors for improving model performance. A variety of example data sets are used to illustrate the techniques along with R programs for reproducing the results.

This book is intended for students, instructional designers, professors, instructors, teachers, trainers, software developers, and development team leaders who: • are taking a course on creating computer-based training/educational software applications • are or will be working on a computer-based training/educational software development team • need to expand their skills into the multimedia technology field • are excited about the possibilities of teaching with multimedia • have worked on their own and unsuccessfully tried to do it all • may have created mediocre computer-based training/educational software • want to do it right the first time • need a practical reference • need practical guidelines for creating computer-managed presentations This book focuses on the practical principles of creating computer-based training/educational software applications and computer-managed presentations. In computer-based training/educational software applications, the computer assumes the teaching role. In computer-managed presentations, you maintain the responsibility for teaching the learners and use what is contained in the presentation as a resource. In a sense, computer-managed presentations are a subset of computer-based training/educational software applications. Their differences will be highlighted throughout this book. This book will not make you an expert in designing computer-based training/educational software applications. Expertise comes through years of experience and continual learning. However, this book will provide you with the foundations for creating professional, instructionally-effective products. To gain support for your computer-based training/educational software applications and computer-managed presentations and to silence the critics, it is important to create excellent products. People will notice quality much more than quantity. This is especially true for your first project. This book, with its numerous practical hints, will help you do it right from your first project onward.
