Smart Ambient Learning with Physical Artifacts Using Wearable Technologies
نویسندگان
چکیده
Wearable technologies have been developing a momentum recently. However, integrated concepts for teaching and learning with wearable technologies are not available at present. In this paper, we report on a multicontextual framework for such an integrated concept. It consists of a number of real-world use cases coming from a third-party funded project, an entrepreneurship lab course from a technical university and an open source software development strategy. Based on an exhibition scenario, we conceptualize a framework for dealing with physical artifacts that integrates community learning analytics for self-reflection. Conceptual as well as technical issues and first experiences with an open source prototype draw an optimistic picture while we outline further needs for research and development.

Ambient intelligence and wearable computing: Sensors on the body, in the home, and beyond
Ambient intelligence has a history of focusing on technologies that are integrated into a person's environment. However, ambient intelligence can be found on a person's body as well. In this thematic issue we examine the role of wearable computing in the field of ambient intelligence. In this article we provide an overview of the field of wearable computing and discuss its relationship to the f...
متن کاملGuest Editorial: Special Section on Learning through Wearable Technologies and the Internet of Things
THE Internet of Things (IoT) is being touted as “the next technological revolution” and one that will be “the most potentially disruptive” we will see in our lifetime, surpassed only by the World Wide Web and universal mobile connectivity [1, p. 24]. It involves physical objects with embedded computational and networking capabilities communicating and interacting with one another, with other co...
متن کاملPredicting air quality in smart environments
The pervasive sensing technologies found in smart environments offer unprecedented opportunities for monitoring and assisting the individuals who live and work in these spaces. As aspect of daily life that is often overlooked in maintaining a healthy lifestyle is the air quality of the environment. In this paper we investigate the use of machine learning technologies to predict CO(2) levels as ...
متن کاملWearable Enhanced Learning for Healthy Ageing: Conceptual Framework and Architecture of the “Fitness MOOC”
Physical activity is one of the key factors of ageing healthy and at the same time one of the key motivational challenges for the elderly. Supporting healthy ageing through physical fitness requires interventions that promote healthy levels of physical activity as part of the daily routine. Although wearable devices, such as activity trackers or smart wristbands, have been used by younger adopt...
متن کاملSensory grammars for sensor networks
One of the major goals of Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments is to interpret human activity sensed by a variety of sensors. In order to develop useful technologies and a subsequent industry around smart environments, we need to proceed in a principled manner. This paper suggests that human activity can be expressed in a language. This is a special language with its own phonemes, its ow...
