Method for generating expert recommendations to advise students on ubiquitous learning experiences

摘要

Ubiquitous learning environments overcome the limitations of a traditional learning environment or class and extend it by making reality the idea of anywhere and anytime learning, allowing people to access better learning experiences in their daily lives. In ubiquitous environments, it is essential to provide a personalized education. To offer personalized recommendations to students in ubiquitous contexts, it is not enough to consider only student profile. It is also necessary to take into account contextual aspects. This work presents a method to generate recommendations of experts in the subject that a student wants to learn, considering the experiences of these experts with other students, availability and physical closeness with the student in face-to-face consultation. An example of application of the method is provided.
