Paper Abstract:      Lifelong learning is often associated with the sociology and economics of education. But its broader and more holistic context that includes learning through involvement in cultural activities, tourism, leisure, and recreation is less known. The relationship of this term to the rapidly changing world of information and communication technologies (ICT), and to the various conceptions of interaction that are central to these technologies, particularly as regards the use of cultural heritage, has been considered less frequently. This paper seeks to shed light on the relationship between lifelong learning and the interactive technologies that can enhance access and consumption of cultural heritage goods and services, using integrated platforms involving mobile technologies. Drawing on material from the ISAAC European project as well as other resources, this paper demonstrates how the notion of lifelong mlearning relates to the concept of heritage experience provided by an integrated e-destination platform. The paper concludes with a description of a demonstrator system for the city of Genoa, Italy.
