UrbanWeb A Mobile Social Context-Aware Web Infrastructure Recent years have seen a dramatically increase in adoption of small mobile devices such as mobile phones and PDAs. At the same time a rich variety of physical tagging and sensing mechanisms is emerging. Systems that combine mobile devices with sensor technology (e.g. Bluetooth, GPS, RFID, Cameras, etc.) have already demonstrated how information and services can be tailored to the user's current situation through use of context-awareness and pervasive computing techniques. While these systems are very useful context-aware information systems, they only focus on aspects of the user as consumer of information and not on the user as active participant and producer of information.

Wisdom Wells The Wisdom Well is an interactive floor which is incorporated in a central place of the school. The Wisdom Well is an interactive working surface and a window towards the outside world. Cooperation and knowledge sharing across geographic distances are established – internal between the different year groups in the school as well as external between other educational institutions, working places and culture institutions. The Wisdom Well is intended to be a central meeting point where students and teachers obtain new learning horizons by communicating across the digital interactive water on the floor. [more]
