Paper Abstract:
|
In this paper, we present Moles and Mini Moles, a combination of learning software tools that serve in bridging the gap
between inside and outside classroom learning experiences. Secondary school students use these tools for hypothesizing,
transferring, and testing lessons learned in the classroom into their physical environment. In particular, students use
Moles and Mini Moles to create interactive multimedia questionnaires and explanatory material, document outdoor
learning situations, and present their findings on the Web. Using the learning software tools in school projects promotes
collaborative work, problem solving skills, and organizational skills. Four practical mobile learning project scenarios are
described, which focus on cross-disciplinary subject material. |
