Supporting ubiquitous language learning with object and text detection technologies

Abstract

Learning log is defined as a digital record of what learners have learned in their daily lives using ubiquitous technologies. By using the ubiquitous learning system named SCROLL(System for Capturing and Remining Of Learning Logs), learners can save what they have learned in their daily lives with photo, such as location (latitude and longitude), learning place, and date and time of creation as a learning log. Although learners have many opportunities to learn words and meanings of objects with taking a photo in their daily lives, SCROLL is not implemented functions for supporting language learning with object and text detection. Therefore, this paper proposes a ubiquitous learning system to support language learning with object and text detection technologies.
