Teaching Semi-Supervised Classifier via Generalized Distillation

Semi-Supervised Learning (SSL) is able to build reliable classifier with very scarce labeled examples by properly utilizing the abundant unlabeled examples. However, existing SSL algorithms often yield unsatisfactory performance due to the lack of supervision information. To address this issue, this paper formulates SSL as a Generalized Distillation (GD) problem, which treats existing SSL algorithm as a learner and introduces a teacher to guide the learner?s training process. Specifically, the intelligent teacher holds the privileged knowledge that ?explains? the training data but remains unknown to the learner, and the teacher should convey its rich knowledge to the imperfect learner through a specific teaching function. After that, the learner gains knowledge by ?imitating? the output of the teaching function under an optimization framework. Therefore, the learner in our algorithm learns from both the teacher and the training data, so its output can be substantially distilled and enhanced. By deriving the Rademacher complexity and error bounds of the proposed algorithm, the usefulness of the introduced teacher is theoretically demonstrated. The superiority of our algorithm to the related state-of-the-art methods has also been empirically demonstrated by the experiments on different datasets with various sources of privileged knowledge.

Method of teaching is an art in education, a teaching staff is no different in principle from a guitarist who beautifully plucked guitar string on stage arts, the teacher is an artist who transfer knowledge to students. Method is considered more significant than the subject matter itself. The communicative teaching was more effective and attracting the students even though the material presented was not so interesting. Instead, the material is quite good, as the methods are less attractive, then the material could not be caught by students. Varied and persuasive methods will be motivating students to learn. Besides the success of classroom teaching and learning process is also determined at the level of teachers as sensitive educators to differed characteristics of diverse learners. Intelligent teacher is able to position himself as an educator as well as a parent of children in the classroom learning.

PENINGKATAN KUALITAS PEMBELAJARAN BIOLOGI UNTUK MEMBENTUK GURU BIOLOGI YANG PROFESIONAL DAN CERDAS

<p>Improving the quality of teaching biology should continue to be done to establish a professional teacher of Biology and intelligent. This is not an easy thing to do as turning the hand because it requires the cooperation of all faculty in the Department of Biology that is expected from day to day also always improve professionalism . Biology lecturer and intelligent professional, who can develop his professionalism in accordance with the challenges of globalization and the dynamics of global education will be a living example for students majoring in Biology. Biology teacher candidates who are prospective professional and intelligent teacher who always want to learn throughout life, literati Science and technology, mastering the English language, capable of carrying out classroom action research, writing scientific papers diligent, capable students according to the needs and development of the era, as well as having intelligence thinking. They are also expected to have the ability to constantly develop the ability, can produce intelligent action, which is done with full responsibility, and is able to be recognized by the public in carrying out their duties in the field of education and learning. One effort that can be done by lecturers Biology is biology of learning by presenting to increase the independence of students in learning, and develop metacognitive skills. Lecturer builder courses should be worked together to give its share in coaching students to become teachers of Biology is the professional and intelligent. Lecturers should be an example and role model for prospective Biology teachers who cultivated because of their tendency to learn students more or less the same as how they be taught in LPTK.</p>

El maestro sensible e inteligente. Visiones de Tomás de Aquino, Friedrich Hegel y Martín Heidegger/ The sensitive and intelligent teacher. Visions of Thomas Aquinas, Friedrich Hegel and Martin Heidegger.

En este estudio se confrontan los pensamientos de Tomás de Aquino, Friedrich Hegel y Martin Heidegger en torno a aspectos relacionados con la formación del ser sensible y del ser inteligente del maestro hoy. Se realizó una investigación de aula; durante dos semestres se recogieron impresiones de estudiantes que cursaban semestre II, III y IV de licenciatura en Pedagogía Infantil, sobre la sensibilidad y la inteligencia que hace gala el maestro y de cómo las promueve en su alumnado, aplicando cuestionarios o preguntas dirigidas.Abstract.In this study, we confront the thoughts of Thomas Aquinas, FriedrichHegel and Martin Heidegger around issues related to the formation of be sensitive and intelligent being the master today. Was performed classroom research for two semesters were collected impressions students enrolled semester II, III and IV degree in Pedagogy Children, on the sensibility and intelligence experience at the teacher and how promotes in its students, using questionnaires or leading questions.
