Abstract:
This thesis explores and proposes solutions to the challenges in deploying context-aware systems that make decisions or take actions based on the predictions of a machine learner over long periods of time. In particular, this work focuses on mobile context-aware applications which are intrinsically personal, requiring a specific solution for each individual that takes into account user preferences and changes in user behaviour as time passes. While there is an abundance of research on mobile context-aware applications which employ machine learning, most does not address the three core challeng

Abstract:
Mobile learning (m-learning) is still in its infancy, and great efforts should be made so as to investigate the potentials of an educational paradigm shift from the traditional one-size-fits-all teaching approaches to an adaptive learning that can be delivered via mobile devices. Thus, the next challenge has been identified from this implication: How learning design can be implemented so as to benefit from the m-learning characteristics and achieve adaptation and personalization of the individual learning process in different contexts?

Abstract:
The ability to make associations between causal cues and outcomes is an important adaptive trait that allows us to properly prepare for an upcoming event. Encoding context is a type of associative processing; thus, context is also an important aspect of acquiring causal relationships. Context gives us additional information about how two events are related and allows us to be flexible in how we respond to causal cues. Research indicates that older adults exhibit an associative deficit as well as a deficit in contextual processing; therefore, it seems likely that these deficits are responsible

This limitation in CALL can be overcome by the L1.
