  1. Ubiquities Computing and the Learning environments The bridge between technology and learning Ana Ivanovic, Maria Lijding and Joachim Wetterling University of Twente, the Netherlands

  2. Outline • Smart Surroundings • Learning Scenarios • Interactive Session • Wrap-up • Introduction

  3. Introduction University of Twente Faculty of Computer Science • IS group -> Ana Ivanovic • Embedded systems -> Maria Lijding Faculty of Behavioral Science • Department of Education -> Joachim Wetterling

  4. Outline • Introduction • Learning Scenarios • Interactive Session • Wrap-up • Smart Surroundings

  5. Ubiquitous Computing • Ubiquitous computing: “the calm technology, that recedes into the background of our lives” [Marc Weiser, 1988] • Smart Surroundings help us in our daily tasks, health, entertainment, household, learning • “Intelligent” interaction with the environment • Unobtrusive, invisible technology • Anywhere, Anytime, in the best way • www.smart-surroundings.nl • Settings: SmartOffice, Well-Being

  6. SmartOffice • The system assists the nomadic worker with: localizing facilities, services and people, providing optimal communication channels personalization of user’s environment

  7. Well-Being Model Vigorous Tense Relaxed Fatigued Arousal Mentally and Physically Ill Indifferent Comfort

  9. Big Brother is watching Government control of reading Your teacher and parents constantly check where you are and what you are doing The bookshops controls the prices and make a personalized offer A bright future Better care for disabled children Intelligent classrooms Access to (relevant) data in high quality anywhere Personalized environments anywhere Ubiquitous use of resources Possible Futures

  10. Outline • Introduction • Smart Surroundings • Interactive Session • Wrap-up • Learning Scenarios

  11. Scenarios • Knowing in the Classroom • Knowing how in the study landscape • Applying in the community of practice • Integrating in the workplace

  12. Knowing in the Classroom source Teacher/expert learner learner learner learner

  13. Scenario characteristics • Product: • smart classroom • Participants: • teacher/expert • learners • Process: • Knowing, building knowledge • Flexibility low: • Fixed meetings at specific locations • Predetermined rosters • Passive learners: • low interaction, pre-cooked one-way communication • High level of structure: • Teacher-led scenario of lesson

  14. Knowing how in the study landscape source source learner learner Learner Teacher/expert source source learner learner

  15. Scenario characteristics • Product: • Smart study landscape • Participants: • Teacher/expert • Learners • External sources • Process: • Knowing, building knowledge • Flexibility medium-low: • Less need for large rooms • Smaller groups  easier time planning • Semi-passive learners: • teacher provides sources but promotes active knowledge management from learners • Semi-structured: • structure made by teacher in collaboration with learners

  16. Applying in a community of practice source source learner learner learner source source learner learner

  17. Scenario characteristics • Product: • Shared workspace with ‘smart interfaces’ • Participants: • Learners • External sources • Process: • Knowing, building knowledge • Flexibility medium high: • Opportunities for virtual collaboration • No teacher  less need for formal meetings • Active learners: • learners build knowledge • Semi-structured: • learners determine workflow and knowledge framework

  18. Integrating in the workplace source source source learner source source source

  19. Scenario characteristics • Product: • Smart interfaces, individually adaptable • Participants: • Learner • External sources • Process: • integration of knowledge in the workplace activities • Flexibility high: • Time schedules to be determined by the learner • Learner can learn at any place at any time • Active learners: • the learner builds a knowledge framework based on individual interpretation of information from external sources • Individually structured: • the individual learner as decision maker in the learning process

  20. Outline • Introduction • Methodology • Learning Scenarios • Wrap-up • Interactive Session

  21. Interactive session • Four groups to each group is assigned a scenario • Brainstorming (25min) Address problems Possible Solutions to the problems • Presentation of the ideas (15min) the chairman of each group presents the ideas
