摘要:
A method includes locating a defect in a first segment of high temperature superconducting wire. A second segment of high temperature superconducting wire is then positioned onto the first segment of high temperature superconducting wire such that the second segment of high temperature superconducting wire overlaps the defect. A path is then created such that current flows through the second segment of high temperature superconducting wire. The first segment of high temperature superconducting wire and second segment of high temperature superconducting wire are then laminated together.

The present invention relates to the field of automated evaluation, assessment and analysis. Disclosed is a method to create and store assignments, automatically analyze student accuracy and ability, and store analysis on individual students for an extended amount of time. This method can reduce the time and effort exerted by teachers in the creation and grading of assignments and more effectively analyzes student progress than any known software. An assessment software, “TEACH-TECH,” combined with a web-based database, “Cloud,” in the novel manner disclosed provides a means for substantially increasing the effectiveness of the educational system.
