[publication] Higher Education m-Learning and e-Learning Scenarios for a Geospatial Wiki

Our publication about “Higher Education m-Learning and e-Learning Scenarios for a Geospatial Wiki” at this year E-Learn Conference is now online available. We are very proud to announce that we also won the Best Paper Award.
Abstract:

Several fields of higher education, like geology, architecture, or civil engineering, rely on visual information in the context of learning, a considerable part of it moreover location-based. Geotagging, a phenomenon recently spreading through he online and mobile world, offers innovative possibilities to support teachers and learners in such fields. One such approach is the composition of geotagged information with a collaborative environment – a so-called geowiki. A prototype for an educational geowiki, TUGeoWiki, has been developed at Graz University of Technology. This publications outlines possible application scenarios for TUGeoWiki in higher education, taking into account e-Learning as well as m-Learning scenarios.
