Currently, the mobility of users who carry mobile devices and access resources through wireless networks brings up the need of providing uniform and immediate access to their information. In this scenario, a new model of education called ubiquitous learning is being explored. Therefore, the educational processes are related to the situation involving the learner (i.e., they are context-aware), ...

Model based learning uses models in order to generate educational resources and adapt learning paths to learners and their context. Many domain models are published on the Web through linked data, thus providing a collective knowledge base that can be reused in the educational domain. However, for these models to be usable in an educational context, it should be possible to predict the learning...

as: Góm sity – Co Abstract Over the last decade, several research initiatives have investigated the potentials of the educational paradigm shift from the traditional one-size-fits-all teaching approaches to adaptive and personalized learning. On the other hand, mobile devices are recognized as an emerging technology to facilitate teaching and learning strategies that exploit individual learners...

Systems that filter web search results to return open educational resources need evaluation. The Cranfield method, which is widely used in information retrieval evaluation, can be used as the basis of a model for evaluating such systems. The Cranfield method requires a collection of resources with associated judgments. In this paper, we describe an experiment to collect judgments of whether ope...

This paper reports early findings of an ongoing study to determine the use and impact of social educational software at undergraduate level. It summarizes the theoretical background to the educational use of social software and suggests directions for future research. The primary aim of the study was to capture and describe the extent and patterns of use of educational software and Web 2.0 tech...
