A Ubiquitous Education Support Method based on Analysis of Learning Patterns Using Rule-Based Reasoning

Many support methods based on learner´s learning behaviors and psychological states have been proposed with the progress on Web-based learning. However, the learning in real world is the most important part in one´s learning. Researches on learning support methods in real world become possible and necessary with the progress on the ubiquitous techniques. In this paper, we propose a hierarchy of zones, by which the position information and learning actions of learners can be correctly caught, and the services can be easily provided to learners. And a method to analyze learners´ learning patterns from learning histories based on learning orders and reactions in hierarchical zones, and provide supports to learners by using rule-based reasoning (RBR) in order to increase learning efficiency and help learner to bring up good learning (life) rhythms
