Location Based Context-Aware Support for Second Language Learning Using Ubiquitous Learning Lots

Abstract

It is always difficult to solve the problem that how to help international students finding out suitable learning contents and learners when they want to study in a new environment. This paper considers using social network method with learners’ location information to accelerate second language (L2) cold-start acquisition in context and judge the relationship among learners to find more suitable learning contents and learners. This approach is based on the Ubiquitous learning log system called SCROLL. In proposal approach, first of all, when learners go to a new environment and do not know what they should learn there, they check in the location information. Secondly, proposal approach will recommend learning logs for them using social network analysis method based on learners’ learning behavior and language background.
