Mobile Systems for Contextual Learning

摘要

We reflect upon our previous works on designing interaction with educational technologies for formal and informal settings (involving interactive whiteboards and pen-tablets in the classrooms and learning activities with PDAs "in the wild"). Mobile learning is redefined as contextual learning relating to and embedded in the learners' situation. We elaborate upon this perspective to derive implications and potentials for learner-centered interaction design and present an interaction scenario for contextual learning with embedded and mobile devices.
