In this article, learning is studied in in situ applications that involve sensors. The main questions are how to conceptualize experiential learning involving sensors and what kinds of learning applications using sensors already exist or could be designed. It is claimed that experiential learning, context information and sensor data supports twenty first century learning. The concepts of contex...

In this paper, we outline the creation of an engaging and intuitive pictorial language as an interaction modality to be used by school children aged 9 to 11 years to interact with virtual characters in a cultural learning environment. Interaction takes place on a touch screen tablet computer linked to a desktop computer on which the characters are displayed. To investigate the benefit of such a...

This paper describes and assesses the development of an online solution for the experiential support of distance learning by teachers. Three hundred and forty-eight randomly selected K-12 teachers participated in this pilot study using the online learning environment designed in this research. Teachers’ products, surveys, and interviews were collected and analysed. Results showed that the teach...

The focus of this paper is case and real-life problem-based (Ewell, 1997) experiential learning with computer information system projects at California State University Stanislaus. The experiential learning occurs within a four-stage cycle: concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. The four principles and strategies applied to bring kno...

A major open question is whether computational strategies thought to be used during experiential learning, specifically model-based and model-free reinforcement learning, also support observational learning. Furthermore, the question of how observational learning occurs when observers must learn about the value of options from observing outcomes in the absence of choice has not been addressed. ...

conclusions according to the results, male students preferred to use the kinesthetic learning style more than females, while, female students preferred the aural learning style. knowledge about the learning styles of students at educational institutes is valuable and helps solve learning problems among students, and allows students to become better learners. results out of 184 participants who ...

OBJECTIVE To understand students' and tutors' perceptions of the development of clinical competencies for the delivery of comprehensive medication management services in an experiential learning project linked to a Brazilian school of pharmacy. METHODS An autoethnographic qualitative study was carried out based on participant observation, focus groups and individual interviews with students a...
