2. https://www.educause.edu/

EDUCAUSE, a nonprofit association and community of IT leaders and


professional describe Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) as “a model for delivering
learnings content online to any person who wants to take a course, with no limit on
attendance. EDUCAUSE’s mission is to advance higher education through the use
of information technology.

There is a growing interest of MOOCs as indicated by big investment in


companies (Coursera, Udacity, Udemy), similar non-profit initiative (edX), and
learning managements systems (Canvas Backboard). According to each writer
Justine Reich, MOOCs are open in two respect (volume, 2012).

1. Open enrollment to students outside a hosting university (as in “open


registration”).

5
2. The materials of the course were licensed using Creative Common licenses so
their materials could be mixed and reused by others (as in open license).

The educational benefits of MOOCs can be maximized if organizations or


institutions that offer such sources are made more open though Creative Commons
licensing. This way, academic and professional institutions reach more online user,
thus, flourishing open education movement.

Wearable Technology
A wearable technology is also called wearable gadgets; it is a category of
technology devices that can be worn by a costumer and often include tracking
information related to health and fitness. A technology that helps the athletes to get
qualified input about vital data during work-out. These wearable devices or
wearables are electronic technologies or computers that are incorporated in to items
of clothing and accessories which can comfortably be worm the body.

The characteristic of wearable, according to Wearable Devices magazine, include the


following.
• performing computer related tasks such as laptops and mobile phones.
• provide sensory and scanning features {such as biofeedback and tracking of
physiological function} that are typically not seen in mobile or laptop devices
• Have some form of communication capability and will allow the wearer
access to information in real time.
• Date input capabilities
• Local storages capabilities

Different fields such as health and medicine, fitness aging, disabilities,


education, transportation, enterprise, finance, gaming and music” have slowly
started to adapt the use of such technologies to improve people’s lives. some example
of devices includes.
• watches
• glasses
• contact lenses
• e-textiles and smart fabrics
• headbands
• beanies and caps
• jewelry
• hearing-aid- like devices {design to look like earrings

Wearable Technology is now the pioneer and worldwide leading innovation


and market development platform for technologies worn close to the body, on the
body or even in the body. Wearable technology will continue to have an impact to
modern society of media and information users. For younger people like you,
wearable technologies provide opportunity to mix functionality with aesthetics. Hard-

held device and gadgets may be incorporated with one’s fashion sense while having
a mobile access to information. According to the magazine, “already, the current
hand-held devices available to consumers, such as smart phones, iPods, and tablets,
have change the technological and social landscapes on the global scale, such that
walking out in the public and seeing an individual engaging with a hand-held device
is commonplace”

Smartwatch is a wearable computing device that closely resembles a


wristwatch or other time-keeping device. In addition to telling time, many
smartwatches are Bluetooth-capable. The watch becomes, in effect, a wireless
Bluetooth adaptor capable.

Fitness tracker. It is a gadget that can be worn by an individual throughout
the day to keep track of various body parameters. Any wearable fitness tracker needs
the person using it to input physiological details such as their weight, height, gender
to help the tracker make better sense of the data that it collects. This personalization
helps in processing the data generated by the fitness tracker. There are a number of
sensors which may be added to a tracker, but most commonly motion sensors are
used to determine body movements.

Heart Rate Monitoring Device. A technology that will calculate and monitor
your heart rate.

Fitbit Charge. This watch is good for exercise. It can count your running time
and the distance.

Smartglass. This smart glass can collect information’s from external and
internal. You can listen to music too while searching information.

3D Environment ( 3D printer and 3D Films, Holograms)

You may have seen computer graphics as well as animations and animatronic
in video, games, movies , and TV shows. 3D graphics environmental have added
texture to our media experience because of the images with we see in three in
dimensional rendering.
According to www.imagearts.ryerson.ca , there are three basic phases in 3D
computer graphics creation.

1. 3D modeling – the process of forming a computer model of an object’s shape

10
2. Layout and amination – the motion of placement of objects within a scene
3. 3D rendering – the computer calculation that, generate the images based on
light placement, surface types, and other qualities.

Ubiquitous Learning

Ubiquitous learning, also called u-learning, is the interaction between


humans and computers in order to learn. It’s important to note that the
term computers here doesn’t only refer to desktop and laptop computers. Instead,
computers are considered any digital device. However, just having a computer or
digital device doesn’t make learning ubiquitous. What separates ubiquitous learning
from the broader term e-learning is that ubiquitous learning evolves learners being
constantly in contact with technology always having the ability to learn. In a sense,
ubiquitous learning is “learning on demand.” This is similar to mobile learning in
that the learner is not hindered by his or her location.

A student is more involved in the learning process u-learning utilizes all forms
of materials “that may be transferred to mobile devices.” These material can be
videos, audios, PowerPoint presentations, or notes with embedded source data in
them. A student may not be conscious that he or she is undergoing a learning process
even by simply watching the video or reading the notes.

Characteristics of Ubiquitous Learning

Top researchers in ubiquitous learning describe ubiquitous learning as having


six characteristics. These are:

• Permanency: Both course material and material produced by students is


never deleted on purpose; the only time material is deleted is in unforeseen
circumstances. Further, student’s performance and course materials are
continuously being updated.
• Accessibility: Because learning data like coursework, assignments, and
lectures are permanent, students should always have access to the material.
Because this material is accessible, students can be much more self-directed
and more independent that previously.
• Immediacy: Students should be able to get information whenever they want.
The information students request may be local, stored on their device, or not
local, the data is most likely stored on a server somewhere and is accessed by
the learner over the internet.
• Interactivity: Learners should be able to interact with other people in their
“educational network.” These people can include the teacher of the course,
classmates, or even experts in the field. Interactivity can be synchronous,
requiring participants to be present at the same time, such as a video
conversation or instant messaging chatroom, or asynchronous, such as an
uploaded video to Youtube or a forum.
• Situating of instructional activities: The problems and knowledge gained
from learning activities are presented in a natural way or in a way that would
mimic a real-world situation.
• Adaptability: Technology should be able to adapt to students’ changing lives.

11
Advantages of Ubiquitous Learning

The most obvious advantage of ubiquitous learning is that learners can be


anywhere. Similar to previous implementations of learning using technology in
education, learners are not tied to a certain location. However, because students
often have their phones on them at all times, students have 24-7 access to a learning
environment.
