M-Learning around the world…

The challenges
Applications should be usable…
…on different devices
…in different contexts
…for different preferences
Necessary to understand the context
External aspects / factors influencing a learning situation
No current standards or specifications, only for parts (learner preferences, device specifications, protocols)!

Our approach
Action in the CEN Workshop Learning Technologies (European Standardization Body)
Based on
Context Metadata
Attention Metadata
Application / guidance for M-Learning

Context Metadata (Pawlowski, Richter, 2007)
Culture
Internet security
Demographical development
Learner satisfaction
Religion
Geography & education infrastructure
Technical infrastructure
Information & Knowledge Systems
Companies
Rights
Rules, standards and agreements
History
Human actors
Politics
Financial aspects
State of development
Media richness

Specification: Culture

Specification: Individual aspects

Using the Spec: M-Learning Design Implications

Using the Spec: Culture Profiles

Summary
Context metadata are necessary to design adaptable / adaptive systems
Context metadata are useful for design processes
Many aspect covered, not all explored fully (e.g. cultural adaptation)
More research necessary for automatic adaptation
Forthcoming standardization will lead to a broad consensus process
