WMUTE 2012 - 7th IEEE International Conference on Wireless, Mobile& Ubiquitous Technologies in Education (WMUTE 2012)

7th IEEE International Conference on Wireless, Mobile& Ubiquitous
Technologies in Education (WMUTE 2012)
http://wmute2012.info

March 27-30, 2012 in Takamatsu, Kagawa, Japan

The proceedings of both conferences will be published by IEEE Computer
Society.

Based on shared research interests between these two communities,
the IEEE WMUTE 2012/DIGITEL 2012 conferences will be jointly held
in Takamatsu, Kagawa, Japan. Participants of both events will
be able to interact, discuss and exchange ideas which we hope can
stimulate more exciting ideas for future research. Therefore, this
joint conference aims to promote a new line of research and practice
that highlights both social and technological innovation in order
to support and amalgamate contemporary social learning theories.

This theme-based jointed conference will expose the results of
current research efforts and practices in these fields, as well
as identify future challenges and research priorities relevant
to both communities.

The scope of WMUTE 2012 will cover but not be limited to:

* Mobile social media for education
* User experiences in mobile social media creation and collaboration
* Specific roles for video in mobile learning and working
* Theories and applications for modeling collaboration in mobile
environments
* Emerging mobile video development platforms and user interfaces
* Context-aware learning environments and mobile social media
applications
* Open educational resources for WMUTE
* Mobile video story-telling and communities
* Human-computer interaction aspects of technology-enriched classrooms
* Mobile and ubiquitous computing support for collaborative learning
* Mobile Web 2.0 applications for learning and teaching
* Learning scenarios supported by wireless sensor networks
* Small-screen interface design for WMUTE
* Mobile collaborative learning systems
* Implementation of learning models exploiting one-to-one technology
* New devices for learning and instruction
* Game-based learning with ubiquitous and one-to-one technologies
* Adaptive and adaptable learning environments using mobile and
ubiquitous devices
* Intelligent Agents support for ubiquitous learning and one-to-one
classroom settings
* Architectures and infrastructures for one-to-one classroom settings
* Methods of interaction analysis in mobile and ubiquitous learning
scenarios
* Evaluation and evaluation methodologies for WMUTE
