Design and Implementation of Ad Hoc Classroom and eSchoolbag Systems for Ubiquitous Learning

This paper describes the design and implementation of a learning technology project. The purpose of this project is to develop advanced wireless technologies for building an Ad Hoc classroom in order to contrive a modern and new learning environment. A wireless platform is developed for teacher and students to establish a classroom dynamically irrespective of location and time bounds. As supported in traditional classroom, we develop information technology to provide teacher with teaching aids, such as blackboard, board rubber, colored chalk, microphone, voice recorder, video recorder, and so on, for course teaching and discussions in an ad hoc classroom. In addition, we provide student with electronic Schoolbag (or eSchoolbag) which packs electronic book, notebook, parents contact book, pencil case, writing materials, sheets, calculator, address book, and so on. Taking lesson in a lively, vivid, and new learning environment, students are expected to enhance their learning performance without any burden like attending classes physically. Moreover students get more flexible scope of learning during their convenient time.
