Towards a places and spaces based city-wide mobile learning through multi-agent support

摘要

This paper illustrates how the conceptualization of Places can be used to inform the technical design of mobile learning system. We apply the concept of Place in a multi-agent framework for supporting informal city-wide mobile learning activities. By taking input from the theoretical framework for analysing collaborative learning activities, we adopt the structure and organization of multi-gent framework. The functionality and components of the system are defined in light of the theoretical work. This work bridges the gap between theory and it's application in technology for mobile learning in our project.
