Corporate fraud can include fraud by or against a company. Fraud against a company can happen through misappropriation of corporate assets by a company senior officer or by staff. Criminals use numerous methods to defraud companies for whom they work. These include fictitious revenues, concealed liabilities and expenses, and asset or revenue understatements or overstatements. Fraud by a company may be committed by providing incorrect or misleading information to shareholders or regulators, including financial reporting fraud-where incorrect or misleading information is provided for individual financial gain. 2, record 5, English, - corporate%20fraud

Fraude industrielle peut inclure les fraudes commises par une compagnie ou contre une compagnie. Par exemple, un cadre ou un employé qui détourne des biens de la compagnie commet une fraude contre une compagnie. Les criminels ont recours à de nombreuses méthodes pour frauder la compagnie pour laquelle ils travaillent, par exemple des revenus fictifs, un passif et des dépenses dissimulés, la sous-évaluation ou la surévaluation des biens. Dans le cas d'une fraude par une compagnie, il peut s'agir d'information incorrecte ou trompeuse transmise aux actionnaires ou aux autorités de réglementation, ce qui constitue également une fraude en matière de communication de l'information financière où la personne transmet de l'information incorrecte ou trompeuse à dessein de profit personnel. 2, record 5, French, - fraude%20d%27entreprise

Graphic Feedback. Very effective feedback can be given graphically. Extended verbal explanations may sometimes be eliminated in favor of a well-placed arrow or picture. Figure... shows a display..., in which the student must identify points on a number line by indicating the numbers where balloons are located. When the student gives a correct number, a dart flies across the screen and pops a balloon. If the student gives an incorrect number, a dart flies across the screen and sticks in a part of the number line where there is no balloon. It is immediately obvious to most students when they are correct, or, when incorrect... The simple location of the dart with respect to the balloons conveys all of this information. 1, record 6, English, - graphic%20feedback

At the University of Sheffield..., a system called skip branching was developed(Kay and Sime, 1963). Here the learner tackled a fairly large unit of information first(as in the Crowder system), but made a written response(as in the Skinner system). If the response was correct, the learner moved on to the next major unit of information. If the learner was incorrect, he worked through a linear subsequence of small items... until he eventually arrived at the next main item, where this procedure was then repeated. 2, record 14, English, - skip%20branching

La méthode de "dérivation" (Skip branching). Certains chercheurs britanniques proposent de présenter les programmes selon une méthode qui tient à la fois du linéaire et du ramifié. (...) La séquence principale est suivie par l'élève qui répond positivement à toutes les questions. S'il ne trouve pas de réponse à un des éléments, il lui est présenté une séquence secondaire (...) qui lui explique plus en détail l'information initiale. Ce sous-programme ne lui donne pas une information complémentaire (comme dans un programme ramifié), mais abaisse simplement le niveau de complexité de l'information primitive. 5, record 14, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20de%20d%C3%A9rivation
