ACUEM-PBL: A Ubiquitous Computing Environment for Problem-Based Learning in Medical Education
Abstract
This paper proposes an ubiquitous computing environment to support medical education centered on Problem Based Learning (PBL). The ACUEM-PBL, whose the main tool of storage and reflection is an Electronic Reflexive Portfolio, allows the cooperative work supported by several devices. This environment is been evaluated at the medicine undergraduate course of Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar).References
