Campus Memories
Learning with Contextualised Blogging
![]() | Supervisor: Participants: Subjects: |
The projects is a joint effort of The Internal School of New Media and the Open University of Netherlands to
develop a new system based on Web Service architecture and mobile technology to combine the strengths of both mobile and
context aware systems and apply them to educational systems can lead to contextualised learning support.
The developed system is an extension of current systems for blogging we call contextualised blogging. The conceptual model and
architecture allows users to create and manage blogs from a mobile device and combine them with identification tags and
therefore leave "blog traces" in a physical environment. So far, the research group was able to develop a general
framework for the contextualized blogging which includes the mobile client subsystem and the content service. An
evaluation of the system has been performed during January 2007 at the Educational Technology Expertise Centre (OTEC) in
the Netherlands. The evaluation system is called "Campus Memories: Learning with Contextualised Blogging".
