Characteristics and framework of smart learning

Abstract

Considering few research that has been done on differences between smart learning, digital learning and traditional learning, this chapter aims to identify these differences from the smart city perspective. A framework for smart learning is proposed to show the components of smart learning, that include four levels: learner, supportive technology, core elements of learning scenarios, and logical laws for teaching and learning. We also describe the four principles and four kinds of supportive technologies. At the end of chapter, the relationship between smart learning and smart city is discussed.
