Abstract
Duane Shell is Research Professor of Educational Psychology His primary research areas are learning, self-regulation, and motivational influences on behavior and cognition as these are manifest in education and public health settings. Dr. Shell specializes in multivariate, mul-tidimensional analyses of complex relationships between motivation, classroom factors, self-regulation, and learning. He is primary author of the Unified Learning Model. In addition to his primary research, he has 32 years experience as an evaluator on federal, state, and foundation grands. Dr. Leen-Kiat Soh is a Professor at the Computer Science and Engineering Department at the University of Nebraska. His research interests are in multiagent systems, computer-aided education, computer science education, and intelligent image analysis. He has applied his research to smart grids, computer-supported collaborative learning, survey informatics, geospatial intelligence, and intelligent systems, and He is a member of IEEE, ACM, and AAAI. design and computational creativity A gives form and voice to the for Creativity of life-size sewn ”skins” the International & of more than 9,000 miles of travel across Nebraska ”Mapping Nebraska”—a stitched, drawn and digitally imaged cartography of the state (physical and psychological) where resides. research into computational creativity is part of on-going interest in combining the digital (pixels and code) with the digital (the work of the hand).
