Mobile learning in a Real-World Construction Engineering Scenario

Abstract

In this paper, we will present a learning scenario dealing with health and safety aspects in construction engineering. The scenario consists of two parts: first, a number of classical classroom sessions dealing with the theory, and second construction sites will be explored to identify and learn more about the health and safety aspects in a real-world context. The real-world scenario will be mediated using mobile devices, which will be used to deliver learning content tailored to specific learning situations. Moreover, students will use mobile devices to create their own learning content; a range of multimedia annotations portraying possible health and safety aspects in real constructions that can be used as a basis for later discussions.
