| Abstract: | Ubiquitous learning refers to learning supported by the use of mobile and wireless communication technologies, sensors and location/tracking mechanisms, that work together to integrate students with their environment. In this paper, we present a ubiquitous learning model called location and context-aware learning (LOCAL). The model is self-sufficient since it does not require complement of an ubiquitous middleware. Moreover, LOCAL uses location information and learner profiles in a generic approach, it was not designed to any specific kind of learning application. The main goal of the model consists in stimulating interaction among learners. The model was implemented and the initial results attest its usefulness. Two functionalities tests proved that LOCAL can be used to stimulate the learner interaction and to distribute contextualised learning objects. In a third test, LOCAL usefulness was positively evaluated by 20 individuals of a computer engineering undergraduate course. | |
