MobiLearn: Context-Aware Mobile Learning System

Abstract

Incorporing mobile systems in the teaching-learning process has enabled m-learning as a mean to customize student learning and to encourage collaborative learning. Some works have proposed m-learning systems, however, they don´t provide monitoring and personalization services based on learning styles and student learning context as it is incorporated in this research. Additionally, there is also a limited work focus on the development of basic disciplinary skills in mathematics and computing in high-school education. This paper describes the design and development of a context -aware mobile learning system that includes mobile learning objects (MLO) for the development of basic disciplinary skills in mathematics and computing for high-school education. Our work proposes learning monitoring and personalization services characterized by: using SMS, social networks (Facebook and Twitter) and provides educational content through MLO based on context and student learning styles.
