Example 2 - Another example of segregation also takes place in a classroom with a teacher, several students, and a computer. The computer is not used by the teacher or the students for the affect relation "guides the learning of another." This is at time 1, and the computer is independent form the teacher and students. At time 2, new educational software programs are brought into the classroom. The new software is also not used by the teacher or students, and is considered independent. A graphic representation of this might look like Figure 2. S1 represents the teacher, S3, S4, and S5 represent the students, S2 represents the computer, and S6 and S7 represent the educational software.
137. If educational system feedout is greater than some value and compatibility is less than some value, then segregation is less than some value.
