移动的和无线通信技术不仅能够实现随时随地的学习，而且还提供了开发结合联合收割机现实世界和数字世界资源的学习环境的机会。然而，研究人员指出，如果没有有效的工具来帮助学生组织他们在实地的观察，移动的学习表现可能会令人失望。为了科普这个问题，本研究提出了一种面向交互式概念图的方法来支持移动的学习活动。本研究以一个国小自然科学课程为例，进行实验以评估本方法的有效性。实验结果表明，该方法不仅提高了学生的学习态度，而且提高了学生的学习成绩。(C)2011爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Mobile and wireless communication technologies not only enable anytime and anywhere learning, but also provide the opportunity to develop learning environments that combine real-world and digital-world resources. Nevertheless, researchers have indicated that, without effective tools for helping students organize their observations in the field, the mobile learning performance could be disappointing. To cope with this problem, this study proposes an interactive concept map-oriented approach for supporting mobile learning activities. An experiment has been conducted on an elementary school natural science course to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the proposed approach not only enhances learning attitudes, but also improves the learning achievements of the students. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
