Title
MSaaS-Type Smart Education Support System Using Social Media
Abstract
Smart education, that is the learning environment utilizing mobile devices like tablet computers, has attracted a great deal of attention. In order to expand this environment, we need a mechanism that can establish the learning environment armed mobile devices and Information Communication Technology (ICT), instantly utilizing the original digital learning material without the significant strain on teaching staff. Therefore, this paper proposes a Mobile Software-as-a-Service (MSaaS) type Smart Education Support System that would allow a teaching staff to apply the original digital learning material and the ICT environment, including mobile devices, in classrooms without disrupting work. This proposed system focuses on technical terms embedded in the original digital learning material and MSaaS-type architecture. The multi-aspect information, that is the multi-view point information of the technical term extracted from the original digital learning material, will be gathered from social media. Then, such multi-aspect information will be distributed on a multi-screen environment such as mobile devices or an electronic black board by a multimodal user interface including motion sensors or voice recognition. In this way, if we can extract only the technical term from the original digital learning material, we can transform the original digital learning material into one for the smart education environment automatically. We explained this transforming model for utilizing the original digital learning material. In terms of MSaaS-type architecture, it consists of three layers that enable three kinds of smashup according to web service technologies in order to establish the smart education environment instantly. We confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed system through the examination based on the evaluation environment.
