An Interactive Learning System Using Smartphone: Improving Students' Learning Motivation and Self-Learning

摘要

In this paper, we present a method of acquiring / utilizing the study records using smartphone for improving the students learning motivation for learning. During the lecture, the students use the smartphone for learning. The results showed that the proposed study record system has a good effect for improving students' motivation for learning. For the professors of the university, it is difficult to offer all necessary information to the students. In addition, they cannot provide the information to satisfy all students because the quantity of knowledge of each student attending a lecture is different. Therefore, for the lectures of a higher level than intermediate level, the students should study the learning materials by themslef. In this study, we show that our method of acquiring / utilizing the study record promotes the self-learning of the student. In this research, we carried experiments during real lectures at the intermediate level. The results showed that the proposed study record system can improve the degree of self-learning after the lecture.
