Developing effective and easy-to-follow learning guide models for supporting user to enjoy a deep cultural experiences become an important issue for cultural heritage context-aware ubiquitous learning. Therefore, in order to motivate learners for enjoyable learning, interactive tasks and elements are highly needed. Cultural heritage as a place which has a varied collection of the cultural objects history opens widespread curiosity for learning in an informal way. A visitor as a learner of the cultural heritage objects might come from local or international communities. This study, the authors investigate how to explore cultural experiences of the visitor outside the community by adapting nationality based context and propose an informal learning scenario which implements learning tasks with interactive elements. For assessment, we propose a summative approach for using multiple choice questions (MCQ) to let the learner know his accomplishment achievement. Our goal is to guide the visitor to learn in an informal way the historical relationship between the cultural heritage and the visitor's country.
Evaluation is a crucial to determine the feasibility of context-aware mobile learning application in enhancing learning. This study investigates the effect of user's interests and user's nationality context in cultural heritage learning escalation. Therefore, we propose an evaluation model based on meaningful learning theory which represented into five characteristics, i.e. constructive, active, authentic, intentional and interactive. The characteristics of the evaluation model are discussed with a special focus on how the contexts can be used for suitable, valuable and enjoyable cultural heritage learning. Then, we conducted an experiment by asking some users to practice with our application namely NaCHL (Nationality-based Cultural Heritage Learning System), follow the learning tasks and write down their feedback after usage. Finally, the result of the analysis shows that the average value of participants who gave agreement with NaCHL is 81.5 percent. It proves the achievement of NaCHL in enhancing learning meaningfully.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
