In today's rapidly evolving educational landscape, traditional teaching methods often fail to equip students with the skills necessary for success in the 21st century. The siloed approach to education, where subjects are taught in isolation, must reflect the interconnected nature of modern challenges. This disconnect between traditional educational models and the needs of the future workforce is a serious concern among educators. They face the challenge of preparing students for professions that still need to be created using tools and technologies that are still emerging. Revolutionizing Curricula Through Computational Thinking, Logic, and Problem Solving offers a transformative solution to this challenge. By advocating for computational thinking as a fundamental skill set applicable across all academic disciplines, the book provides educators with the tools to bridge this gap. It introduces computational thinking not just as a technical skill but as a way of problem-solving and logical reasoning that enhances critical thinking across subjects. Through practical lesson plans, case studies, and strategies, educators can seamlessly integrate computational thinking into their classrooms, preparing students for the complexities of the modern world.

The 2001 International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ICCBR 2001, www.iccbr.org/iccbr01), the fourth in the biennial ICCBR series (1995 in Sesimbra, Portugal; 1997 in Providence, Rhode Island (USA); 1999 in Seeon, Germany), was held during 30 July – 2 August 2001 in Vancouver, Canada. ICCBR is the premier international forum for researchers and practitioners of case based reasoning (CBR). The objectives of this meeting were to nurture significant, relevant advances made in this field (both in research and application), communicate them among all attendees, inspire future advances, and continue to support the vision that CBR is a valuable process in many research disciplines, both computational and otherwise. ICCBR 2001 was the first ICCBR meeting held on the Pacific coast, and we used the setting of beautiful Vancouver as an opportunity to enhance participation from the Pacific Rim communities, which contributed 28% of the submissions. During this meeting, we were fortunate to host invited talks by Ralph Bergmann, Ken Forbus, Jaiwei Han, Ramon López de Mántaras, and Manuela Veloso. Their contributions ensured a stimulating meeting; we thank them all.

In this book Jan D. Sinnott synthesizes her 20 years of research on lifespan cognitive development to describe the growth of complex (or `postformal') thought in adults. She shows specifically how adults improve mentally over a lifetime and learn to think in more complex and wiser ways. Applications of postformal thought are demonstrated in such diverse areas as - family relations - adult education - personal identity - and spirituality. Chapters examine relations between postformal thought and pertinent variables such as age, health, memory, and vocabulary. Other sections deal with issues in humanistic psychology such as - guided imagery - mind - body medicine - and creative intentionality.

Closely related to the frontier research field of “digital technology”, this book reshapes the planning and design process of landscape architecture from theoretical and practical levels. It gives a full-scale discussion to the logic, structure, method, and application of digital landscape architecture, leading this field to a new era of perception-quantification research mode. Readers will get a comprehensive understanding of digital landscape architecture, know about multiple digital methods for landscape planning and design, and learn a lot of practical projects with digital technology. And it will inspire the readers to think about new patterns and approaches to landscape planning, rather than traditional ways. This book is organized under a clear logic, which helps the readers easily get the core of the work. A lot of logic diagrams showing between the theoretical paragraphs highly summarize the key points of the book, providing a better readability and acceptability. This book also contains many detailed drawings and graphics for the project cases, which gives a good demonstration of how digital methods could be applied in practice.
