0205664Robert J. SemperExploratorium, San Francisco, CA"The I-Guide Project: Extending Museum Experience Using Portable Devices, Wireless Networks, and Web Technology"This multidisciplinary Information Technology Research project, involving a collaboration between the San Francisco Exploratorium and Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, addresses several areas of computing research, including ubiquitous or pervasive computing, context-aware computing, augmentation of the real world, human-computer interaction and computer-supported cooperative work. The goal of this project is to gain a deeper understanding and to disseminate knowledge about how the use of a ubiquitous computing infrastructure may augment learning both during and after a visit to an interactive science center. The project focuses on three research domains: 1. The creation of a functional wireless nomadic computing infrastructure and on-line personalized delivery system to gain knowledge about how nomadic technologies can be configured to support learning in a complex setting in which there are multiple, competing constraints for a user's attention, 2. The development of an instructional design framework for creating learning, teaching and community-building resources capable of delivery on multiple devices using this system in order to explore which on-line information resources can better promote learner interests, sustain science learning, and improve science understanding and 3. Studies that explore the impact of these resources on the learner's use of the museum to determine the relationship between physical visit activities and post-visit on-line activities that can be supported by a personalized network experience. The project involves 1. The design and implementation of points of information (pi stations) and a data network for 10 museum exhibits, 2. The design and implementation of free standing kiosks for accessing Web-based content during the visit (for visitors who do not carry a wireless handheld device), 3. The design and implementation a dynamic, personalized Web-based server system for on-site (wireless) and remote (wired) access by visitors, 4. The develop of Web-based content for the exhibits as a group and for each exhibit, including a mixture of dynamically, customizable text, audio, and visual content and interactive discussion-group/bulletin board functions, 5. Research on the utility of the system with 300 individual and small groups of learners, 6. The creation of a user-triggered method for capturing user experience for extending visitor engagement, and 7. The develop of a user model and instructional design framework for ubiquitous learning and guidance systems. The project is headquartered in the multimedia Exploratorium Learning Studio which includes facilities for project staff to engage in project design and implementation as well as research studies.

这个多学科的信息技术研究项目，涉及旧金山探索博物馆和惠普实验室之间的合作，涉及计算研究的几个领域，包括无处不在或普适计算、情景感知计算、现实世界的增强、人机交互和计算机支持的协作工作。该项目的目标是在访问互动科学中心期间和之后，更深入地了解和传播有关使用无处不在的计算基础设施如何增强学习的知识。该项目侧重于三个研究领域：1.创建功能强大的无线游牧计算基础设施和在线个性化交付系统，以获得关于如何配置游牧技术以支持在用户注意力存在多个相互竞争的限制的复杂环境中的学习的知识；2.开发教学设计框架，以创建能够在使用该系统的多个设备上交付的学习、教学和社区建设资源，以便探索哪些在线信息资源可以更好地促进学习者的兴趣，支持科学学习，3.探索这些资源对学习者使用博物馆的影响，以确定物理参观活动和参观后在线活动之间的关系，以支持个性化的网络体验。该项目包括：1.设计和实施10个博物馆展品的信息点(圆周率站)和数据网络；2.设计和实施独立的信息亭，用于在参观过程中访问基于Web的内容(对于没有携带无线手持设备的参观者)；3.设计和实现一个动态的、基于Web的服务器系统，供参观者现场(无线)和远程(有线)访问；4.为作为一个组的展品和每个展品开发基于Web的内容，包括动态的、可定制的文本、音频、以及可视内容和交互式讨论组/公告栏功能，5.研究该系统对300个个人和小团体学习者的效用，6.创建用户触发的方法以获取用户体验以扩展访问者参与度，以及7.为泛在学习和指导系统开发用户模型和教学设计框架。该项目总部设在多媒体探索学习工作室，其中包括供项目工作人员参与项目设计和实施以及研究的设施。
