International Association for Development of the Information Society, Paper presented at the International Conferences on Internet Technologies & Society (ITS), Education Technologies (ICEduTECH), and Sustainability, Technology and Education (STE) (Melbourne, Australia, Dec 6-8, 2016)
The CollaTrEx framework for collaborative context-aware mobile training and exploration is designed for the in-situ collaboration within groups of learners performing together diverse educational activities to explore their environment in a fun and intuitive way. It employs both absolute and relative spatio-temporal context for determining available activities and supports seamless collaboration in spite of temporary connection losses or when in remote areas. This demo showcases the prototype system and front-end implementation for tablet devices, inclusive of new activity types such as contour drawing, which aim at aiding memory retention to provide a more effective learning experience.
