future of education. E-learning is a revolutionary product in the field of
education.

The Smart classroom learning approach provides learners of all ages and walks
of life with a nine-step framework and a host of Smart Thinking Tools that
motivate higher levels of understanding. Through the process learners activate
and build background knowledge, process information, transform their learning
into a product that shows what they know, and reflect on their learning.
Structured talk and assessment as and for learning are carefully woven into the
process to build a thoughtful context for learning and to advance the thinking of

The Layout of Smart
Classroom
The Smart Classroom is physically built in a separate room of Pervasive Computing Lab in
which several video cameras, microphone arrays are installed in it to sense human’s
gesture, motion and utterance. According to the characteristic of invisibility in pervasive
computing environment, it deliberately removed all the computers out of sight. Two wall-
sized projector displays are mounted on two vertically crossed walls. According to their
purposes, they are called “Media Board” and “Student Board” separately. The Media Board
is used for lecturer’s use as a blackboard, on which prepared electronic courseware and
lecturers’ annotation are displayed. The Student Board is used for displaying the status and
information of remote students, who are part of the class via Internet.

The classroom is divided into two areas, complying with the real world classroom’s model.
One is the teaching area, where is close to the two boards and usually dominated by
lecturer. The other is the audience area, where is the place for local students. Complying
with the philosophy of Natural and Augmented. Natural means obeying real-world model
of classroom as much as possible to provide lecturer and students the feeling of reality and
familiarity, which leads to the existence of local students. Augmented means trying to
extend is the reason for remote student.

• Redecorated interiors

• A gyro wireless mouse to control the computer and projector from anywhere in the classroom

• Switching controls to easily change projector output between the PC, laptop,

document camera, and DVD/VCR

• New projectors

• Laptop plugs so you can bring your own computer and hook it up instantly

• A document camera to show transparencies, papers, or small objects on the projector and even take

Snap shots of them

• A SMART Sympodium that allows you to make electronic notes and images appear
