Smart or intelligent classrooms utilize advanced interactive technologies to support instructors and learners in a hybrid learning environment. However, effectively integrating these technologies with the instructors’ curriculum and aligning them with students’ needs remains a challenge. Distinct from typical hybrid learning platforms, X2O’s OneRoom is designed to preserve the learning experiences of online students and […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW.

This project will allow McGill University to be part of a larger-scale project focusing on the genetic expression variance in chickens, headed by the team at Aarhus University. Previous work has been done to categorize general gene expression across numerous tissues types, with the focus now shifting to better understand the drivers behind gene expression […]

Certaines personnes non-communicantes sont limitées dans leur capacité à utiliser des dispositifs de communication améliorée et alternative (CAA), ce qui peut affecter grandement leur qualité de vie. Ces personnes dépendent de l’évaluation des proches aidants de leur état émotionnel. Effectivement, leurs désirs et leurs émotions risquent d’être interprétés de manière incohérente par leurs proches aidants. […]

The proposed project involves integrating and optimizing blockchain technology within Penrose Partners’ internal operations. By implementing blockchain, the project aims to automate complex processes, enhance data security, and increase transparency within the organization. This will streamline workflows, protect sensitive information, and provide a clear record of transactions, leading to improved efficiency and reduced operational costs. […]

This research aims to advance point-of-care molecular diagnostics by combining isothermal nucleic acid amplification with innovative photonic detection techniques. The project will focus on modeling and optimizing polymer based optical resonators to improve sensitivity and thermal stability during amplification processes. By meeting the WHO ASSURED criteria (Affordable, Sensitive, Specific, User-friendly, Rapid and Robust, Equipment-free, and […]

CAVD shows in the deposition of calcifications in the aortic valve, which eventually leads to heart failure. We recently found that the types (phases) and morphologies of calcifications that form in the disease are completely different in men and women. This suggests that calcification in the two sexes follows an entirely different pathway. In this […]

Printed electronics has the potential to deliver low-cost, high-volume fabrication of electronic devices, but is currently held back by the lack of a specialized quality control solution. Today, verification of functional properties such as conductivity is done with teams of technicians using simple multimeter probes, lacking the speed and accuracy required to characterize roll-to-roll production. […]

Based on the needs of community partners (Viomax and Adaptavie), we co-developed nine training modules and successfully trained kinesiologists who provide adapted physical activity services to persons with disabilities. Our proposed project aims to co-create and evaluate tools to support the implementation of these training modules within adapted physical activity community-based organizations who provide adapted […]

This BSI project aims to determine the effectiveness of using GenAI tools to provide students with formative feedback as compared to traditional methods of instructor feedback and peer to peer feedback. Proving the effectiveness will allow educators more ways to provide their students with formative learning opportunities.
