Abstract

In this paper we present a concept for integrating Multimedia-Enriched Learning Objects (MELOs) within a unifying technological framework for schools. First, we discuss the general role of objects for child development and learning. We then outline the framework architecture of the proposed Networked Environment for Multimedia Objects (NEMO). Afterwards, we give examples to describe how the use of MELOs could enhance the learning experience of primary school children while learning about dolphins and discuss the pedagogical benefits of our approach.
