20140038156 | LEARNING SYSTEM AND METHOD THAT DISPLAYS ACTIVITY STREAMS BASED ON STUDENT CONTACTS - A learning management system and method delivers an instructional material to a student workstation after authenticating an student's entry into a learning session that is associated with a plurality of contacts. Stored electronic addresses in a database include a first electronic address that is associated with a first contact and a second electronic address that is associated with a second contact. The first contact is associated with the learning session and the second contact is not associated with the learning session. A first activity stream associated with the first contact and a second activity stream associated with the second contact is selectively displayed to the student such that upon detection of student's entry into the learning session, the first activity stream is displayed without displaying the second activity stream and the second activity stream is displayed upon detection of student's exit from the learning session either with displaying the first activity stream or without displaying the first activity stream. | 02-06-2014 |
20140038157 | LEARNING SYSTEM AND METHOD THAT PREVENTS COMMUNICATION OF UNAUTHORIZED CONTENT DURING A LEARNING SESSION - A learning management system and method displays a learning environment for delivery of instructional material to a remote student workstation student after authenticating a student at the remote student workstation.

20110151076 | Processing and cooking of food with a low glycemic impact for the nutrition of diabetics, obese and for weight reducing diets - In order to reduce the glycemic load in the daily nutrition of diabetics, obese and for weight-reducing diets, this invention claims cooking or baking processes and other procedures for food—rich in carbohydrates—in which, the structure of the raw complex carbohydrates (amylose, amylopectin, etc.) is mostly preserved and/or short saccharides are encapsulated. This objective is attained by reducing the magnitude of the complex carbohydrate fractioning by the undesired effect of adiabatic heating during grain grinding, or during conventional cooking and also through the encapsulation of already processed monosaccharide's, disaccharides or broken carbohydrate chains in capsules within denaturalized protein matrixes, in order to make their digestion deeper and longer. These processes and procedures allow the ingestion of less restricted portions of food, very similar to the conventional ones (bread, rice, potato, pastas) while due to their prolonged digestion, it naturally limits the immediate production of glucose. This type of food is defined as: “Deep Diet” or “Deep Nutrition” (Dieta Profunda in Spanish). These processes and procedures allow preparing food recipes and flavors very similar to those of a conventional nature (bread, rice, potatoes, pasta) while because of their prolonged digestion are able to reduce the immediate production of glucose (Glycemic Index), thus generating healthier conditions for diabetics and obese, appetite satisfaction and reduction of food anxiety. | 06-23-2011 |
