EvaluationIn common usage, evaluation is a systematic determination and assessment of a subject's merit, worth and significance, using criteria governed by a set of standards. It can assist an organization, program, design, project or any other intervention or initiative to assess any aim, realisable concept/proposal, or any alternative, to help in decision-making; or to ascertain the degree of achievement or value in regard to the aim and objectives and results of any such action that has been completed.
Évaluation paresseuseL’évaluation paresseuse (), appelée aussi appel par nécessité ou évaluation retardée est une technique d'implémentation des programmes récursifs pour laquelle l'évaluation d'un paramètre de fonction ne se fait pas avant que les résultats de cette évaluation ne soient réellement nécessaires. Ces résultats, une fois calculés, sont préservés pour des réutilisations ultérieures. Dans un langage comme Haskell, l'évaluation est paresseuse par défaut.
Conceptual blendingIn cognitive linguistics, conceptual blending, also called conceptual integration or view application, is a theory of cognition developed by Gilles Fauconnier and Mark Turner. According to this theory, elements and vital relations from diverse scenarios are "blended" in a subconscious process, which is assumed to be ubiquitous to everyday thought and language. Much like memetics, it is an attempt to create a unitary account of the cultural transmission of ideas.
Teaching methodA teaching method is a set of principles and methods used by teachers to enable student learning.

For a particular teaching method to be appropriate and efficient it has take into account the learner, the nature of the subject matter, and the type of learning it is supposed to bring about. The approaches for teaching can be broadly classified into teacher-centered and student-centered.
