Evolvable robot hardware (2015)
Book Chapter
Winfield, A. F., & Timmis, J. (2015). Evolvable robot hardware. In M. A. Trefzer, & A. M. Tyrrell (Eds.), Evolvable Hardware (331-348). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-44616-4_13

While the theory and practice of evolutionary robotics is well established, most work to date has been concerned with evolving a robot’s control system – it’s software. This chapter is concerned instead with the more difficult problem of how to evolv... Read More about Evolvable robot hardware.

Using technology to inspire and enhance the learning of statistics in a large cohort of diverse ability (2015)
Book Chapter
Weir, I., Gwynllyw, R., & Henderson, K. (2015). Using technology to inspire and enhance the learning of statistics in a large cohort of diverse ability. In IATED (Ed.), Edulearn15 Proceedings. IATED

In this paper we illustrate how we have used technology to teach and efficiently assess statistics within a Level 2 research skills module delivered to Business School students. The student cohort was a large diverse group of non-mathematicians and t... Read More about Using technology to inspire and enhance the learning of statistics in a large cohort of diverse ability.
