In this paper we present the studies and research conducted within the eMadrid project, funded by the Regional Government of Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid. In particular, we focus on those works dealing with two research lines: ubiquitous and mobile learning; adaptation, adaptability and accessibility.
The integration of mobile devices in education is a new quite, which is commonly referred to as Mobile Learning. Mobile learning aims to facilitate and improve learning strategies that exploit individual learners' context, so that, they can learn from anywhere and at anytime using mobile devices. In order to let learners with disabilities take benefits from mobile learning systems, we propose in this...
Over the last decade, several research initiatives investigate the potentials of the educational paradigm shift from the traditional one-size-fits-all teaching approaches to adaptive and personalized learning. On the other hand, mobile devices are recognized as an emerging technology with the potential to facilitate teaching and learning strategies that exploit individual learners' context. This has...
Using mobile devices for learning gets more and more popular. However, in order to provide learners with suitable learning materials in such mobile settings, the learners' characteristics and context should be considered. In this paper, we propose an approach for providing personalized course content in mobile settings, considering a combination of students' learning styles and context. The proposed...
The service continuity mechanism is to provide multimedia application with seamless multimedia experience over multiple networks (Wifi, 3G, Wimax, LTE) as well as multiple devices (mobile, PCs, PDA, Settop box) in ubiquitous network. However, most of the proposed approaches of service continuity are either not adaptive resources provisioning or based on a specific definition of context in ubiquitous...
Nowadays, advertisers and content publishers are constantly struggling to find the best advertising strategies to promote their services. They need to be able to reach the target population that is potentially interested in their products or services, without being too tiresome, and to deliver the content properly in order to capture users' attention. In this paper we describe a system that uses pervasive...
This paper represents a personalized context - aware mobile learning architecture for supporting student to learn English as foreign language in order to prepare for TOEFL test. It provides adaptive content for different learners based on context - awareness. In our model, the context includes location, time, manner as well as learner's knowledge. Through suggested topics as well as test questions,...
Empowered by mobile computing, teachers and students can benefit from computing in more scenarios beyond the traditional computer classroom. But because of the much diversity of device specification, learning contents, and mobile context existing today, the learners get a bad learning experience (e. g. rich contents can not be displayed correctly) during u-Learning environment. This paper proposes...
In this paper we describe a context-sensitive way to change an active mobile phone profile. We present a method to create a proactive and adaptive phone profile control system that automatically adapts the profile to the best alternative based on the current context. The adaptation is based on recognizing patterns of human practices, which may change over time. The control system is implemented with...
