Web-Based Context-Aware Science Learning

چکیده
In this paper, we describe an innovative project where Web technologies are exploited to foster science learning in an integrated but mobile smart learning environment. Contextawareness is considered a crucial skill in science learning, therefore we imagined a solution to train students for context awareness by illustrating context gaps based on on-site observations and measurements. A component named MazCalc contains the parameters of each context and allows us to compute the context gap and its potential to stimulate context-awareness among students. International collaborative learning is structured in such a way to induce students to make comparisons and discuss the topic studied. Experiments are being conducted in Biology and are in preparation in Geology.

A Context-Aware Framework to Provide Personalized Mobile Assessment
In mobile learning environments, context-aware systems refer to applications that employ contextual information to provide appropriate services to the leaners or other applications to perform a specific task. An important challenge in such applications is context modeling, using ontologies to model context information and to reason about context at a semantic level. Semantic Web technologies ha...
متن کاملOntology-Based Semantic Recommendation for Context-Aware E-Learning
Nowadays, e-learning systems are widely used for education and training in universities and companies because of their electronic course content access and virtual classroom participation. However, with the rapid increase of learning content on the Web, it will be time-consuming for learners to find contents they really want to and need to study. Aiming at enhancing the efficiency and effective...
متن کاملAn Adaptive and Context-Aware Scenario Model Based on a Web Service Architecture for Pervasive Learning Systems
Pervasive learning will become increasingly important in technology-enhanced learning (TEL). In this context, development efforts focus on features such as context-awareness, adaptation, services retrieval and orchestration mechanisms. This paper proposes a process to assist the development of such systems, from conception through to execution. This paper focuses mainly on pervasive TEL systems...

Semantic Web Services (SWS) offer the possibility of adapting services to the context of the service requesters, where relevant services can be quickly discovered and orchestrated to compose situated applications. Most existing work has focused on formal service descriptions constructed from expertly designed ontologies. However, constant changes in pervasive learning domain demand technically ...
