Description

An ad hoc ubiquitous learning environment designed and validated at El Bosque University to accompany fourth-year students' context-situated formative research during professional practice. It "registers in a databank the interoperation between devices, location, time synchronization, characterization of learning paths, monitoring of learning goals, and notifications regarding each user's personalization, adjusting the goals to the student's needs." It was compared against E-learning virtual classrooms in the quasi-experiment.

Design Implications

Context

  • Only 54.3% of students carry out professional practice in areas where internet connection does not hinder systematization and tracking

Target Learners

  • Fourth-year Early Childhood Education degree students in pedagogical practice

Learning Goals

  • Research competence development and systematization of pedagogical experiences
