Designing for Mobile Learning in a Technology Museum

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The main objective is to investigate which pedagogical models are most appropriate for informal (museum) learning and how these models can be aligned with ICT-mediated learning tools. In collaboration with The Powerhouse Museum, we will develop a pedagogical model of informal learning, create activities supported by a mobile learning and 'collaboratory' technical infrastructure to nurture experiential learning and informal discovery, and investigate informal learner experiences within this ICT-mediated informal learning environment. The project will create a reference implementation of an informal learning environment, document its development process, and evaluate its effect on museum visitors.
