mindful |m朝ndfl|
adjective [ predic. ]
conscious or aware of something: we can
be more mindful of the energy we use to heat
our homes.
BUT
The most profound technologies are those that
disappear. They weave themselves into the fabric
of everyday life until they are indistinguishable
from it.

 Situated displays have a generic effect of raising

awareness and energy consumption on a mid to long
term

 Badge and social incentive systems must be

embedded with social media to have an effect

 Real world action foster curiosity, discussion, and

reflection about the topic when combined with public
displays
attention-aware displays ...

 raise and retain attention significantly

better.

#9 SUMMARY
SO 
 #1 There are seams between the different learning

contexts, locations, times, social contexts, 

 #2 There are opportunities with new technologies

that are open, ubiquitous, context-aware, and
personalized.

 #3 look at the aimed effects on awareness,

curiosity, creativity, knowledge, latent variables,
MINDFUL AND SEAMLESS LEARNING 

 ubiquitous open content access,
 flexible sensor data aggregation,
 synchronisation of channels (to context

and person),

 and dynamic visualization and output

indicators (ambient displays).
