Bernardo Tabuenca is pursuing a PhD at the Open University of the Netherlands to develop integrated personal learning ecologies to better support lifelong learners. Over three years, he aims to design smart learning objects and prototypes that allow learners to connect informal and formal learning across contexts using multiple devices. His work so far includes a framework for linking learning and context, as well as location-based response software and contributions to the ARLearn augmented reality platform. Upcoming work will involve prototyping a personal learning ecosystem for lifelong learners and evaluating how it can help them better manage learning activities.
