abstract |
Social inclusion of recent immigrants is a challenge in many countries for both immigrants
and the host communities. To harness the potential of social, situated and opportunistic
mobile interactions for the social inclusion of immigrants in a host country, we have
developed an Incidental Learning Framework. This supports the design and evaluation
of MApp, a suite of smartphone tools and services for recent immigrants. Developed
within the European Union's MASELTOV project (http://www.maseltov.eu), the MApp delivers
language learning activities, image-to-text translation, context-aware and interest-based
recommendations, local information, game-based cultural learning and social support
to immigrants in cities. Preliminary field trials in Vienna, Madrid and London have
highlighted issues of mobile literacy, affordability, ethics and privacy challenges,
as well as insights into motivations and possible measures of success. Incidental
learning implemented on a smartphone app has implications for the relationship between
formal and informal learning; new systems of learner support by other immigrants,
mentors and volunteers; the design of learning materials that combine immediate assistance
with longer term learner development; and potential conflicts between technological
affordances, e.g. context awareness and learner tracking, and user preferences among
vulnerable groups such as recent immigrants. |
