  • The object of this study is to improve obstacles related with physical affordance and cognitive affordance by adopting Norman's theory for affordance of mobile application of museum education. As to conduct the study, I have selected the mobile device application of G museum for the need of observation and interviewing, and have applied think aloud protocol to analyse matters of affordance. By this study, learners will be possible to conduct appropriate behavior instantly under the circumstance of unfamiliar museum mobile environment because of sophisticated design to make learners perceive and understand information provided with designed interface based on realistic improvement that will be made by inspecting possible problems of affordance in position of museum education mobile system users. Additionally learners will be able to control contents of museum and to experience interactive learning which motivate exploratory activity to accomplish meaningful learning.

  • Ubiquitous computing and mobile technologies provide much scope for designing innovative learning experiences that can take place in a variety of indoor and outdoor settings, such as botanical gardens, parks, museums and classrooms. In this paper, we present our own innovative work for bridging indoor and outdoor field-trip learning activities with the support of RFID with reader device on ubiquitous environments. The function of our system is based on strategically located RFID tags placed on objects around settings which are identified using the mobile device installed to an RFID reader. The mobile device reads the RFID tag and sends the learner's request to the field-trip learning system. And learners can be learning activities according to theirs learning levels. We also focus on the use of intelligent agents to customize learning contents for individual learners. The result of our experiment indicates that learner enjoyed learning where mobile devices are used in the system, supporting the learning activities in the context of which they are taking place.

  • In mobile opportunistic networks (MONs), human-carried mobile devices such as PDAs and smartphones, with the capability of short range wireless communications, could form various intermittent contacts due to the mobility of humans, and then could use the contact opportunity to communicate with each other. The dynamic changes of the network topology are closely related to the human mobility patterns. In this paper, we propose a social motivation-aware mobility model for MONs, which explains the basic laws of human mobility from the psychological point of view. We analyze and model social motivations of human mobility mainly in terms of expectancy value theory and affiliation motivation. Furthermore, we introduce a new concept of geographic functional cells, which not only incorporates the influence of geographical constraints on human mobility but also simplifies the complicated configuration of simulation areas. Lastly, we validate our model by simulating three real scenarios and comparing it with reality traces and other synthetic traces. The simulation results show that our model has a better match in the performance evaluation when applying social-based forwarding protocols like BUBBULE.

  • This paper is a study on the design and implementation of cooperative monitoring agent using mobile agent for educational portal site. Generally educational portal sites have many addresses of teachers homepage. Therefore, portal site has a very difficult task with maintaining a consistent address of site and administration of portal is impossible while to be on the search for all dead sites. In order to overcome this problem, we designed and implemented a mutual cooperative monitoring agent in order to filter off dead site using mobile agent. The monitoring agent applies at Korean educational portal site (KEPS) for elementary student and makes an experiment efficient. Finally a cooperative mobile agent is compared with a stationary monitoring agent.

  • According to the rapid growth and popularization of the SMART device, the society is being changed greatly and importance of SW education is being emphasized. Also many student have a lot of interests about mobile application programming. The latest study suggests using the robots in the programming education may help to induce learners' interest and motivation, participation, achievement. So in this research, I designed a programming educational plan for SW education using robot and mobile application development tool(App Inventor) and applied them. And I conducted a survey four ares such as class, robot, App Inventor, robot and App Inventor. As a result, learner's response of interest and satisfaction was very positive commonly at four areas. In particular, learners could get programming result immediately using smart phone and could control the robot using smart phone, so learner's interest had increased especially. The conclusion is that suggested plan for SW education using robot and mobile application development tool is useful for programming education.

  • This study was to compare and analyze actual conditions and awareness of high school students' mobile learning. Survey was used as a research method and percentile, t-test and F-test were conducted for the statistical analyses. Results revealed that in the case of actual conditions on mobile device and mobile learning, slight differences were shown in various sub-variables, depending on independent variables (gender, grade, track); year 2010 can be the most important year for the mobile learning; high school students seldom utilize mobile learning in a small piece of time; mobile learning using Apps was not widespread yet. In the case of awareness of mobile learning, statistically significant differences were found in the use capacity of mobile devices, the increase of learning performance, and the continual interests of mobile devices.

  • The aim of this study is to present the handover procedures and the performance comparisons of layered mobility management schemes for wireless mobile Internet. To investigate efficient mobility management schemes providing seamless information services in a mobile environment, this paper provided the detailed discussions of existing network layered mobility management scheme, including Mobile IPv4, Mobile IPv6, and new transport layer mobility management scheme, stream control transmission protocol (SCTP) based mobility architecture (SMA). Network simulator-2 (ns-2) was used to compare the performance between Mobile IPv6 and SMA in the wireless mobile Internet environment. Simulation results show that for typical network configuration and parameters, SMA has a lower handover latency, lower packet loss rate, and higher throughput than Mobile IPv6.

  • 과학과 정보통신 관련 기술 교육은 그 교육적 잠재력이 무한하고 이에 따른 열의 또한 높아지고 있다. 그러나 기초과학 교육의 산실이라 할 수 있는 초등학교 과학 실험 환경은 매우 열악하여 학생들은 각종 위험 상황에 노출되어 있고 교사들은 학생들을 각종 안전사고에서 보호하기 위해 실험 환경을 과도하게 통제하게 되어 학생들은 기본적인 활동에 상당한 제약을 받아 과학에 대한 의욕과 흥미가 저하되는 문제가 발생하게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위하여 최근 유비쿼터스(Ubiquitous)컴퓨팅 기술로 주목을 받고 있는 RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) 기술을 이용하여 실험 약품에 고유의 전자태그를 부여하고 Mobile RFID 리더기가 장착된 PDA를 이용하여 약품의 개별 정보와 관련 과학실험 방법을 비롯하여 실시간으로 안전교육을 받을 수 있는 시스템을 통해 안전 조건이 미비한 실험실의 물리적 환경 개선을 통해 보다 능률적이고 심도 있는 과학 실험 환경을 구축할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하였다.
