Introduction What is Bluetooth …In Context …Blueshoot …In Practice …Issues …The next generation

What is Bluetooth? License free radio communication standard Hardware and Software specifications Designed for short range Ad Hoc networking Allows for a wide variety of inter-device communications It’s free to use and basic hardware costs are minimal Safe to use! ISM band

projectBluetooth – In Context Mobile Opportunistic learning: Students have access to learning materials whenever, wherever Richer transmission technology than SMS Not just full colour. Sound, video, interactive, slides, programs… Cheap transmission technology projectBluetooth can be implemented for a tenner and costs nothing to run (except for electricity!)

projectBluetooth - Blueshoot Bluetooth ‘hub’ Module leaders have control Constantly searches for registered student devices Transmits Learning objects Pastoral information Anything really!!!

projectBluetooth - Blueshoot Can transmit to any detected device… …or to pre-selected groups

projectBluetooth - Blueshoot Allows live creation of messages for immediate transmission… … but can also upload previous messages or RLOs

projectBluetooth - in Practice LINK project CELT and Graduate School funded Mobile Architectures module – Covers mobile radio technologies Distribution of student-reversioned materials Idea is to provoke students to reflect and research

projectBluetooth - in Practice LINK Project cont’d Distribution and development of revision questions and material by student groups Intention is to encourage collaborative learning Transmission of exam revision questions… … and answers after a while Allows revision-on-the-go

projectBluetooth - in Practice HEA-ICS project : Blue-ICS Pastoral information transmitted to students Lecture cancellations, room changes, exam timetables CELT Podcasting Transmission of audio podcasts to newly enrolled students who need an IT account to enrol on course modules

projectBluetooth - in Practice Conference version Trialled at e-Learning Africa Led to interest in it’s use for other EDUCA conferences. Berlin, Moscow…

Issues Speed of transmission Size of transmission Not just slow… Can students save it on their devices Size of device screens Small and varied Capabilities of devices Can they handle PDFs? JPEGS? Text files? Coverage

projectBluetooth – V2 New mobile phones have started to come with Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR 3 times as fast as 1.2 Uses half the power of 1.2 Video!!! Coverage Multiple Blueshoot hubs using Efika AWM On the buses with Prof. Andy Sloane Birmingham Science City puts projectBluetooth in public. Local adverts.
