Abstract
This paper proposes a distributed platform designed to support pervasive learning and interactivity on a university campus and to ease tasks related to learning and teaching. The platform exploits wireless technologies in order to provide service access anywhere and anytime. The platform architecture is described, and the functionalities of the modules composing it are discussed, together with the relationships among modules
