Abstract

One of the rapidly developing tools for online learning is learning through mobile environment. Therefore, developing and improving of mobile learning environment is an active topic now. One of the ways to make learning environment more accurate to user’s needs is to use his context. Context of user consists of current context in online learning environments and physical context. This paper concentrates on physical context and way to improve user’s experience in learning environment by using it. For this an ontology-based system is presented and Learning Context ontology was extended for user context ontology. Set of use-case scenarios is provided to show situations which will be covered by such approach.
