Paper: Mobile Learning: Context and Prospect

This paper is a white paper of the ELI online focus session about mobile learning.
It contains a lot of links to other useful papers, and can be a good good guide for my further literature study.

The paper can be found here.

Evaluation of second paper prototype

Below are the results of the evaluation of my second paper prototype.

# persons: 5
Age: 19 to 24
# years studying in Leuven: 1 - 5 years (1 person already graduated)
All persons followed different studies
2 persons had experience with multitouch of which 1 also with Android

Problems/suggestions (by test persons) while running scenario's:


- Problem: not clear how to switch between different map views (events, buddies, none)
- Suggestion: being able to view buddies, events on other locations (campus maps)

=> Possible adjustment: adjust the filter options, and add icons on map for quick switching between map views



General results:
Purpose of application clear?                                           8,8 / 10
Interaction with application clear?                                     8,4 / 10
Would you use application yourself?                                 8,2 / 10
Does the application have an added value for students?      8 / 10

Second paper prototype

Here is the second paper prototype of my application.
On the following figures you see from top to bottom, left to right:
  • A scenario for calculating a route for user defined start and destination
  • A scenario for searching and checking in at a building
  • A scenario for displaying buddies on a map according to the user defined filter options
  • A scenario for searching and displaying an event
