Architecture for Integrating Real Objects with Virtual Academic Communities
- 1. Architecture for Integrating Real Objects with Virtual Academic Communities J.A. Villanueva, J.D. Márquez, Z. M. Solarte, A. García D. agdavalos@uao.edu.co
- 2. Internet of Things (IoT) “Things having identities and virtual personalities operating in smart spaces using intelligent interfaces to connect and communicate within social, environmental, and user contexts”. [1]
- 3. IoT and Education - The IoT applications have been adopted in many different domains. IoT on Education: - Smart objects are becoming ubiquitous in education. - Students are more willing to use technology (platforms and devices)
- 4. Smart objects Microprocessor Memory Communications interface Software Smart Object
- 5. Virtual Academic Community “It is formed by one or more groups of individuals who are linked by common interests, and are engaged in a continuous learning process, and its main objective is to build knowledge- sharing using ICT”. [5]
- 6. Problem ¿How to integrate smart objects that are available at educational environment (e.g. laboratories) with the VAC to facilitate learning processes?
- 7. Solution: A Model of Integration A model of integration of VAC with objects that are available at the learning scenarios, based on t e c h n o l o g i e s a n d concepts of the IoT. T h e n e w m o d e l integration could be implemented in learning scenarios where converge the virtual and physical world seamlessly.
- 8. Architecture It is based on the paradigm of layered architectures and architectural styles such as REST.
- 10. Architecture Testing Three objects have been implemented: - Virtual object (Moodle) - Social object (Mediator object) - Smart object (Measuring element).
- 11. Architecture Testing: Case study Case study: practical classes of a digital electronics course for engineering undergraduate students. Students of the group: 15
- 13. Test: Outcomes
- 14. Students Perception ¿Are the devices deployed to support the work at the lab were helpful for the development of the practical classes?
- 15. Students Perception ¿Does using technological elements on the stage of practical classes and virtual elements motivated you to perform more comfortably the activities at lab?
- 16. Conclusions • The integration of smart objects to the VAC enables: gathering more data about activities at labs and new ways of interaction between actors in the VAC and objects. • The objects go from being passive elements in labs to be more involved in supporting the teaching- learning activities. • IoT could help to improve teaching and learning experiences, especially for courses that involve working at labs.
