The Definition and characteristics of ubiquitous learning There is a lot of talk about ubiquitous learning in educational side, definition and implementation from this management. The first thing that we should know what is “Ubiquitous” and “learning”. Word of ubiquitous is anywhere and anytime whereas learning means act or process of acquiring knowledge. So if we make two connections from these words, we will find that Ubiquitous learning is often simply defined as process to get skills anytime

Ambient intelligence The emerging ubiquitous information society also known as ambient intelligence, ubiquitous networking, or pervasive computing raises content dependent concerns of trust and privacy issues). Ambient intelligence an approach that combines intelligence user interfaces and ubiquitous computing (Brey, 2006). While some call ambient intelligence more human version of ubiquitous computing and maybe the successor an information technology aimed at

with the combination of glass frames that holds all of this together. It was developed by Google with the objective of manufacturing a mass-market ubiquitous computer. Ubiquitous computing is an advanced computing concept where computing is made to appear everywhere and anywhere. In distinction to desktop computing which is the primary form today, ubiquitous computing can happen using any device, in any location, and in any format. With this objective in mind they have achieved their goals. Google glasses
When the internet became public knowledge in the late nineteen-eighties few predicted that it would one day be held in the hand of nearly ninety percent of the American population. Today, nearly everyone in developed countries has some sort of internet using technology within an arm’s reach. While this sort of connectivity is convenient in many aspects, the internet also requires that its users sacrifice their ability to keep their information private. Privacy in the 21st century is no longer possible
Pervasive Computing Introduction: Pervasive computing is the trend towards increasingly ubiquitous (another name for the movement is ubiquitous computing), connected computing devices in the environment, a trend being brought about by a convergence of advanced electronic - and particularly, wireless - technologies and the Internet. Pervasive computing devices are not personal computers as we tend to think of them, but very tiny - even invisible - devices, either mobile or embedded in almost
Evolving toward ubiquitous computing is the next step in technology. Computers will interact more and more with the environment. The social interactions are starting to be controlled using ubiquitous devices. Users have access to more information therefore social issues become important. In order to have a better understanding about the social issues in ubiquitous computing, aspects such as privacy of the individual, use and abuse of the state and opportunities for the individual empowerment will
to appear everywhere and anywhere. Instead of using desktop computers, ubiquitous computing made users to use computing concepts in any devices, anywhere, in different formats. Normally ubiquitous computing is a wireless technology, which can be connected and can be accessed all around the world. As explained before Ubiquitous computing can occur anywhere, it may have multiple end users who will have multiple needs. To satisfy their multiple needs there should be multiple user interfaces which
What is Ubiquitous Computing ? What is ubiquitous computing? An exciting new approach to serving us with technology? Or the environment where the virtuality will became the reality? Let's try to give the definition of ubiquitous computing, its development, including the key people and places influencing its development, and finally some concerns raised by this new approach for putting technology and people together. Already, one name has been reoccurring when talking about ubiquitous computing:
In this case, imagine if schools continued to use books and worksheets for their learning and research. They would eventually be at a disadvantage versus a school who incorporates the phycology behind the hues of colors, design and technology into their classrooms. One article disputes that claim though, giving the reasoning that changes should come based off student interest. Students appreciated the easy use of e-books provided, but “contrary to what most would expect, the younger and supposedly
broad research topics, student outcomes and professional development and implementation. Additionally, 1:1 educational technology and K-12 technology initiatives along with research on the effectiveness of 1:1 implementation on improving student learning is addressed. Four (4) meta-analyses were reviewed, utilized, and synthesized to provide information from hundreds of studies and systematic reviews specifically focused on 1:1 educational technology and K-12 technology initiatives. These studies
curriculum in order to incorporate technology into education, goals ought to be set in place in order to direct the outcomes of curriculum development and teaching. Goals go far beyond everyday teaching objectives, goals are directed towards long-term learning and programmatic outcomes (John, 2009). In order to grow in the realm of education it is important to stay current with developing technologies and to acknowledge the skills necessary to implement technology into the profession of education.

write has drastically changed. As I write this I ask myself how has technology in comparison to older generations ultimately impacted the learning process for children. More importantly what I should ask is if modern technology has actually granted us an advantage to our older counterparts? Even more specifically have we began to interfere negatively with the learning process through technological advances and our ultimate dependency on electronic devices? I have some doubts but, I do believe that technology
Thanks to the ubiquitous nature of the internet in recent years, the world has become more connected each day. The increased use of the web on a daily basis has opened the doors for teachers to give their students the opportunity to connect with people around the globe
leveraging advantage is by creating a workplace environment that values learning, whereby, workers can combine challenging and interesting work with opportunities to engage in career growth and development, that satisfies both the need for organisational effectiveness and individual success (Maurer, et al., 2003). Participation in learning in the workforce relies on factors such as: the andragogy principles of adult learning techniques as distinct to pedagogic principles and techniques
Hsu, 2008). The usage of learning management systems in the classroom and in the workplace continues to play an important role in helping instructors, trainers and educators in meeting their pedagogical as well as their organizational goals (see Argyris, 1977; Beatty & Ulasewicz, 2006; Liu, Li & Carlsson, 2010; Shrivastava, 1983; Ong, Lai & Wang, 2004). Becoming ubiquitous since the 80’s and 90’s, learning management systems (LMS) are one of the means of e-learning—a learning situation where instructors

The laugh could be foreshadowing that Boo will come out of his house and talk with Scout, Dill, and Jem.... ... middle of paper ... ...st in school by learning about Hitler and the horrible historical events that have happened in the world. Her maturity is expressed by what she has learned about the world around her and can apply those things to her every day life. Moreover, Scout has matured greatly in
The journey of language learning is one of challenge, risk, and reward. Students embarking on such an adventure must be lead by a language teacher who can guide them toward communicative competence and fluency in the target language. The language teacher must also possess a well-packed tool kit of language standards, understanding of the skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing, know how to properly assess the language learning process, and sharpen the student’s own motivation.

In the context of globalization, intercultural communication has become ubiquitous in contemporary business communication. People keep moving around the world and have always traveled from their homelands, but with the increasing technological ease of travel, people are moving much more than ever before.

The CESIM simulation game provided a forum for both practical and intangible learning. I was a member of the Ubiquitous Mobile team. From the beginning I felt that we had a strong team and a good chance to win the game. Jose and I graduated together in Mechanical Engineering and we knew Chico as a grad student in the Mechanical Engineering department. Chico knew Lucho from a previous class. When you allowed us to pick our own groups, we gravitated right to each other. Group projects in the
