Abstract

Nowadays Internet-based multimedia learning has been entered into our daily life over various end user devices including mobile phone. Whereas, participating in the classroom and book reading are still major modalities of learning. Pervasive computing technologies will accelerate the progress and help to build a more convenient learning environment for learners. Smart Space technologies can augment real classroom to help teachers and students having class with the support of natural tangible UIs and context aware aids where teaching is still in a similar fashion with what happens in traditional classroom. Books can also be fabricated with bits for browsing multimedia learning materials. Bits from cyberspace and atoms from real world will be more and more blended into each other. And learning will be pervasive and blended which is beyond today's e-learning.
