Too much to learn? Want to do it more efficiently?
One easy trick is to reflect on your learning up to now and its results
You probably don’t want to keep a diary though
Because of this, we are developing an app that uses your smartphone sensors to recognize learning activities and then log them for you
But first we need your help!
We need sensor data to train our algorithms
What data do we collect?
Audio recordings: If you want, you can opt out of this, and have just the features transferred
Sensor readings
Only in the time period you decide
What do you get from it?
If we are successful you’ll be able to use our app to monitor your learning
Among all participants collecting recordings for at least six activities (min. 10 minutes each) until 19.12.2015 we lot five vouchers worth 30 € from a local book store (Habel)
You’ll need to input a contact email address so we can contact you for the prize; otherwise, no contact info needed[\list]
Recognition of your contribution to a research project
Prerequisites
A phone running at least Android 4.0.
Being involved in typical learning activities (e.g., attending a lecture) in the next 4 weeks
Usage instructions
Whenever you want to collect readings, just select your activity from the drop-down list and click “start recording”; to stop the recording, click “stop recording”
If you want to upload the readings you collected (you can do it as often as you like, not only once at the end), just select the “Upload” menu button
If you want to delete the last recording, just press the “Delete” button
Please collect readings of as many different activities as possible (ideally all )
