This book addresses the point of intersection between cognition, metacognition, and culture in learning and teaching Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). We explore theoretical background and cutting-edge research about how various forms of cognitive and metacognitive instruction may enhance learning and thinking in STEM classrooms from K-12 to university and in different cultures and countries. Over the past several years, STEM education research has witnessed rapid growth, attracting considerable interest among scholars and educators. The book provides an updated collection of studies about cognition, metacognition and culture in the four STEM domains. The field of research, cognition and metacognition in STEM education still suffers from ambiguity in meanings of key concepts that various researchers use. This book is organized according to a unique manner: Each chapter features one of the four STEM domains and one of the three themes—cognition, metacognition, and culture—and defines key concepts. This matrix-type organization opens a new path to knowledge in STEM education and facilitates its understanding. The discussion at the end of the book integrates these definitions for analyzing and mapping the STEM education research.

This book presents high-quality peer-reviewed papers from the International Conference on Advanced Communication and Computational Technology (ICACCT) 2019 held at the National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra, India. The contents are broadly divided into four parts: (i) Advanced Computing, (ii) Communication and Networking, (iii) VLSI and Embedded Systems, and (iv) Optimization Techniques.The major focus is on emerging computing technologies and their applications in the domain of communication and networking. The book will prove useful for engineers and researchers working on physical, data link and transport layers of communication protocols. Also, this will be useful for industry professionals interested in manufacturing of communication devices, modems, routers etc. with enhanced computational and data handling capacities.
Society today may be more vulnerable to global-scale, long-term, climate change than ever before. Even without any human influence, past records show that climate can be expected to continue to undergo considerable change over decades to centuries. Measures for adaption and mitigation will call for policy decisions based on a sound scientific foundation. Better understanding and prediction of climate variations can be achieved most efficiently through a nationally recognized "dec-cen" science plan. This book articulates the scientific issues that must be addressed to advance us efficiently toward that understanding and outlines the data collection and modeling needed.
