3. Learning Content & Tools Standardization: ChallengesWhat makes a good standard?Andrew S. Tanenbaum: “the nice thing about

standards is that there are so many of them to choose from”

What is better?A collection of small related standardsA comprehensive with profilesWhat is a good process for adoption?How to achieve maximum adoption?Can a standard be imposed?

How to integrate LMSs and 3Denvironments?

How can the virtual space immersionhelp to achieve a better learning?

How to integrate virtual and physicalspace (cross-reality)?

How to find a perfect mix ofavatars and NPCs?

8. M-learning: ChallengesPedagogical challenges:

using mobile devices to support face to face activitiesusing mobile technology to reinforce traditional e-

learningusing mobile devices as an always on channel to

provide immediate and personalized feedbackcontroling the learning process with mobile devicesusing mobile devices to support

meta-cognitive activitieshow to use the physical learning context

in the learning process in eitherformal or informal learning environments

8: M-learning: ChallengesMotivational challenges

how to use technology to enhancethe motivation of the students

how the increase in the controlof the learning process motivates them

how the interaction with smart objectsusing mobile devices can also bea motivational factor for the student
