The Smart campus is a concept of an education institute using technologies, such as information systems, internet of things (IoT), and context-aware computing, to support learning, teaching, and administrative activities. Classrooms are important building blocks of a school campus. Therefore, a feasible architecture for building and running smart classrooms is essential for a smart campus. However, most studies related to the smart classroom are focused on studying or addressing particular technical or educational issues, such as networking, AI applications, lecture quality, and user responses to technology. In this study, an architecture for building and running context-aware smart classrooms is proposed. The proposed architecture consists of three parts including a prototype of a context-aware smart classroom, a model for technology integration, and supporting measures for the operation of smart classrooms in this architecture. The classroom prototype was designed based on our study results and a smart classroom project in Ming Chuan University (MCU). The integration model was a layered model uses Raspberry Pi in the bottom layer of the model to integrate underlying technologies and provide application interfaces to the higher layer applications for the ease of building context-aware smart classroom applications. As a result, application interfaces were implemented using Raspberry Pi based on the proposed technology integration model, and a context-aware energy-saving smart classroom application was implemented based on the proposed classroom prototype and the implemented web application interface. The result shows that, in terms of technology, the proposed architecture is feasible for building context-aware smart classrooms in smart campuses.3 of 34 as follows. The related works are reviewed in the following subsections of this section. The components of the proposed architecture, including a context-aware smart classroom prototype, a technology integration model, and the supporting measures for smart classroom operations, are described in Section 2. The implementations to prove the concepts of the proposed architecture are demonstrated in Section 3. Discussions and conclusions are given in Section 4. Background and Related WorksStudies related to this study are reviewed in this section. Studies related to different topics, including classroom environment, context-aware, energy issues, and Ming Chuan University (MCU) Smart Classroom Project, are reviewed in the following four subsections respectively. Physical Environment and Smart ClassroomsSome research works focus on taking a smart classroom as a tool to measure lecture quality. In [8], authors use sensors to retrieve features, such as noise level, CO 2 level, temperature, humidity, lecturers' voice, and lecturers' motion, in smart classrooms. Collected data are evaluated by various classification algorithms. The result shows that CO 2 level, temperature, humidity, and noise level are the main environmental factors that affect lecture quality. The relations...

“…Specific software can also be developed to enrich Smart Classrooms. For example, Pirahandeh & Kim present their Smart Classroom storage management system (SCSMS) [59]; Li, Du and Ma show the Smart Learning Partner (SLP) platform as a smart service [60]; and Jormanainen, Toivonen and Nivalainen explain the platform HiljaNet [61], a learning environment based on a distributed sensor network that includes in-building automation and the measurement environmental conditions [61].…”

“…Concerning technology, the implementation of Smart watches or RFID tag sensors for teachers and students [53][54][55][56][57]64], interactive whiteboards or touch screen displays with multiple students [49,52] or interaction screens that recognise body movements [51,52], and full access to knowledge through mobile devices and full internet access can be considered. It should be noted that there are existing initiatives and solutions of cloud storage [59,62] allowing easy access and information management from anywhere, and devices with collaborative data and writing software tools that allow knowledge sharing, management and co-creation [66], considering students' needs [63] and student-centred learning methods [85], which allow student self-regulation to foster autonomous and lifelong learning. These software solutions will permit parents and teachers to be involved in the project and learning process at any time [66].…”

The Smart Classroom as a Means to the Development of ESD Methodologies

2020

Educational institutions are envisioned as principal agents for addressing the current sustainability challenge that society is facing. Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is transformational and concerns learning content and outcomes, pedagogy and the learning environment in itself. ESD entails rethinking the learning environment (physical and virtual) in line with sustainable development, which implies classrooms' transformation towards learner engagement, formative assessments and active methodologies. This paper responds to this need through exploring the relationship between Smart Classrooms and four widely used ESD methodologies (project or problem-based learning, case study, simulation and cooperative inquiry), identifying how the dimensions and categories of the characteristics of Smart Classrooms can contribute and lead to the implementation of ESD methodologies in real teaching practice in an effective way. The method used in this study consisted of a literature review of both theoretical frameworks separately, ESD and Smart Classrooms, and a subsequent expert analysis to identify the interrelation between both. The Smart Classroom shows a high level of adequacy for using problem and project-based learning, case study and cooperative inquiry methods because of its characteristics in terms of technology developments, environmental conditions and processes. Simulation is the ESD methodology with the lowest level of adequacy in a Smart Classroom, because it is primarily held online rather than through face-to-face teaching. Smart Education facilitates the putting in practice of ESD processes as it enables the creation of intelligent, sustainable, resource-efficient, personalised and adaptive learning environments. Further empirical research is needed to explore the influence that the Smart Classroom has in enabling ESD processes and practices, and to identify students' and teachers' needs at different education levels. Additionally, teacher training programmes focused on the correct use of Smart Classrooms and on the digital competence of teachers are critical to its successful implementation.
