Virtual Violence
Two psychology professors at SMU are using virtual reality to help young women recognize unwanted sexual advances and learn ways to prevent it. The study is designed to take women on a virtual date simulating a party or being alone in a parked car. Research has shown that the use of virtual reality can enhance efforts at teaching girls and young women how to respond and recognize to sexually threatening situation.

Mind control goes 3D
Using just her thoughts, this test subject can move a helicopter through a virtual 3D space. She's helping University of Minnesota researcher Bin He realize his dream of allowing immobilized or speechless individuals to control real objects with their minds. No other research group has, to He's knowledge, designed a system that allows a person to move objects on a screen at will through 3-D space using noninvasive technology. And the system's noninvasive character means it could have implication

Theory-based support for mobile language learning: noticing and recording
This paper considers the issue of 'noticing' in second language acquisition, and argues for the potential of handheld devices to: (i) support language learners in noticing and recording noticed features 'on the spot', to help them develop their second language system; (ii) help language teachers better understand the specific difficulties of individuals or those from a particular language background; and (iii) facilitate data collection by applied linguistics researchers, which can be fed back i
A Model for Strengthening the Software Engineering Research
Capacity
Like all other New Member States (NMS) Bulgaria is
experiencing a dramatic change in all areas of its society. These
changes reflect very seriously on the research capacity of the
country and, in particular to Sofia University (SU). The Faculty of
Mathematics and Informatics (FMI) has experienced some serious
problems closely related to the general socio-economic and the
research environment in Bulgaria. This paper describes a model
for strengthening the research capacity of FMI, especially the
