Paper Abstract:
|
In a context-aware ubiquitous learning environment, learning systems can detect students learning behaviors in the real
world with the help of context-aware (sensor) technology; that is, students can be guided to observe or operate
real-world objects with personalized supports from the digital world. In this study, an optimization problem that models
the objective and criteria for determining personalized context-aware ubiquitous learning paths to maximize the learning
efficacy for individual students is formulated by taking the meaningfulness of the learning paths and the number of
visitors simultaneously to each learning objects into account. Moreover, an algorithm is proposed to find quality
solution. Experimental results from the learning activities conducted in an elementary school are also given to depict the
benefits of the innovative approach. |
