Abstract

Most existing mobile learning environments for supporting field-trip activities are limited to specific domains or contents and do not support authoring. We present a framework for planning and conducting field trips with mobile devices called learning environment for mobile network capable devices (LEMONADE), which provides full-cycle support for authoring and conducting field trips as well as for post-trip reporting and reflection activities. LEMONADE includes a generic graph-based language for authoring task specifications and for querying and presenting field-trip results. It is fully integrated in the graph-based modelling environment FreeStyler, allowing the students' results to be flexibly used in follow-up activities.
