iLecture for Android
*** 摘要
隨著近年來通訊科技的快速發展,例如:Wi-Fi、3G、4G LTE等,讓使用者能隨時連網並獲取所需的資訊,人們的日常生活已與網路服務有著密不可分的關係。另外,搭配著行動連網裝置的大爆發,改變了以往使用軟體的方式,只要利用身邊的行動裝置,隨時隨地都可以在網路上遨遊。iLecture正是在這股浪潮下所誕生的一款即時反饋與互動服務。
iLecture主要應用於有講者與聽眾的場域(例如:教室、會議、演講廳等),講者可以隨時進行提問、傳送推播訊息,而聽眾可以回答問題、反應目前狀況。互動過程透過資訊視覺化來呈現,並且強調「即時」性,即時推送最新動態,讓使用者能夠輕鬆掌握全盤面貌。
迄今,與iLecture相似的應用必須仰賴能夠存取紅外線的硬體設備(例如:IRS即時反饋系統),但是iLecture卻不需要事前架設硬體設備,只要利用連網裝置連上網路,就可以使用。
*** 功能
iLecture可以發揮的空間隨處可見,以教室課堂上為例,老師在iLecture上提出問題後,學生可以利用各個連網裝置(例如:平板、手機、筆電等)來回答問題,此時,學生對於該問題的回答結果與比例,立即以視覺化的圖表完整呈現在iLecture的介面上,讓老師能立即診斷學生的學習成效,即時調整教學步調;另一方面,學生亦可以即時反應目前的狀況(例如:課程的速度、目前的心情等),經由iLecture的量化與統計,再以視覺化的圖表來呈現,讓老師能夠隨時、科學化地掌握課堂教學的狀態。
儘管iLecture一開始是計對教室課堂上的場景所設計的服務平台,但是其即時反饋與互動的特性,也非常適用於演講或研討會的場景上。講者可以隨時進行提問、傳送推播訊息,而聽眾可以回答問題、反應目前狀況,讓整體的互動性大為提升。此外,講者能夠藉由動態視覺化的結果即時掌握整個會場內的情況,即時調整,提升演講的氣氛與流暢度。
另一方面,iLecture會將每一個問題的相關資訊、每一則推播訊息與每一道反饋的意見,都記錄下來,可供日後進行分析。使用者可以透過分析資料,來找出更好的上課方式或演講模式,精益求精更加進步,讓成就更勝以往。
雖然現在iLecture已臻於完善,但是目標僅止於此,我們希望能夠跳脫網際網路的藩籬,例如:僅利用藍芽或Wi-Fi來進行通信,在完全不需要考慮網路訊號的情況下,打造出各方面都更卓越的iLecture。
*** Summary
With the rapid development of communications technology in recent years, such as: Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G LTE, so that users can readily obtain the required information and networking, people's daily life has been closely connected with the Internet service . In addition, with a large outbreak of action of networked devices, changing the way software used in the past, as long as the use of mobile devices around, anywhere can surf on the Internet. iLecture It is in this wave of the birth of a real-time feedback and interactive services.
iLecture mainly used have speakers and listeners field (example: classrooms, conference, lecture halls, etc.), the speaker can always ask questions, push message transfer, and the audience can answer the question, the current state of the reaction. Through an interactive process visual information to present, and stressed that "immediate", real-time push updates, enabling users to easily grasp the overall look.
So far, the iLecture similar applications must be able to rely on access to infrared hardware devices (such as: IRS instant feedback system), but do not need to make the erection iLecture hardware devices, as long as the use of networked devices connected to the Internet, you can use.
*** Function
space iLecture can play everywhere, to the classroom classroom, for example, the teacher after the iLecture ask questions, students can take advantage of various networking devices (such as: flat, mobile phones, laptops, etc.) to answer questions at this time, students' Responses to the question of the ratio immediately to visualize the complete chart presented on iLecture the interface, so that the teacher can immediately diagnose the effectiveness of learning, real-time adjustment of teaching pace; on the other hand, students can also instant reaction current situation ( For example: the speed of the course, the current mood, etc.), via iLecture quantification and statistics, and then to visualize the chart to render, so that teachers can readily scientific grasp of the state of classroom teaching.
Although iLecture feature began as a gauge of the scene in the classroom classroom design service platform, but its immediate feedback and interaction, but also very suitable for lectures or seminars on the scene. Speakers can always ask questions, push message transfer, and the audience can answer the question, the current state of the reaction, so that greatly enhance the overall interaction. In addition, speakers can be dynamic visual results immediately grasp the entire venue, the real-time adjustments to enhance the atmosphere and the fluency of speech.
On the other hand, Information iLecture will each issue, each message will push every feedback and opinions are recorded, are available for analysis in the future. Users can analyze data through to find a better way to class or lecture mode, excellence is more progress than ever to make achievements.
Although iLecture giants in perfect, but the goal only to the extent that we want to be able to escape the Internet of barriers, such as: only use Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to communicate, in the case need not be considered complete network signals next, to create a more superior in all aspects iLecture.
