On A Proposal for Four-Country Research Collaboration on Seamless Learning

Baohui Zhang, Nanjing University, China

Feb. 7, 2013, @ Johns Hopkins University, USA

Abstract: 

Mobile computing technologies are becoming more and more pervasive and affordable in our daily lives. Such technologies are suitable for one-to-one and seamless learning (learning everywhere and all the time). My presentation will be around a proposal for four-country research collaboration on seamless learning including faculty from Johns Hopkins University. The proposed project is a follow-up to a three-year project which focused on how we have integrated the affordances of mobile technologies to transform the existing primary three and four science curriculum in Singapore.

In the proposed project, we will build our survey investigation of current status of seamless learning in different countries on existing “seamless” literature. We will focus on the hardware, software infrastructure and the social systems that may not may not support seamless learning models. Our expected results of opportunities and challenges of applying seamless learning in different countries will inform our intervention design to promote such learning models in the countries and beyond. The presentation should facilitate further discussion and exchange of ideas.
