Knowledge awareness map for computer-supported ubiquitous languagelearning

Abstract

This paper describes a computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL) in a ubiquitous computing environment. In the environment called CLUE, the learners provide and share individual experience and interaction corpus and discuss about them. This paper focuses on the design, implementation, and evaluation of knowledge awareness map. The map visualizes the relationship between the shared knowledge and the current and past interactions of learners. The map plays a very important role for finding peer helpers, and inducing collaboration.
