A service-oriented architecture for context-aware ubiquitous learning delivery

Abstract

With the continued increase in the use of ubiquitous devices, learners' expectations of learning services have also increased. Most of the learning services being provided today are not designed or delivered for ubiquitous learning environments because these learning services have not been taken into account rich learning contexts. This paper proposes a service-oriented architecture for context-aware adaptive learning services, which contains adaptation service, transforming service, and presentation service. Within each service, the conflicts are resolved by different learning rule base. The results show that the system may improve the learning experience under ubiquitous learning environments, and the learners are more interested in adapted learning service than those from general learning service.
