This paper deals with the question how to integrate smart devices in Java appli-
cations. It will outline how different smart devices can be used to enrich learning
environments, we will point to some of the problems one has to face while dealing
with smart devices, a differentiation of smart devices will be done and we will give an
overview about existing Java Virtual Machines available for different smart devices.
Furthermore we will tackle the question of the communication between different smart
devices and also between different kinds of smart devices. An outlook to the future
work will also be given at the end of this work
In this paper we describe a session management system for setting up various collabora- tive classroom ,scenarios. The approach ,is addressing the additional workload ,of administrating classroom networks on the teacher, which is an important aspect for teachers' willingness to im- plement technology enhanced,learning in schools. The system facilitates preparation of classroom scenarios and the adhoc installation of networked collaborative sessions. We provided a graphical interface, which is usable for administration, monitoring, and for specification of a wide variety of different classroom ,situations with group work. The resulting graphical specifications are well suited to be re-used in the more formal learning design format IMS/LD; this is achieved by a auto- matable transformation of the scenarios to LD documents. Keywords: Collaborative classroom scenarios, lightweight classroom orchestration, learning de- sign, shared workspaces.
