The principle of the framework is a better interaction between information and knowledge and its phases, both are different and do not exclude each other, both complements each other in order to create new knowledge, in the past knowledge management models were approached to infrastructure as a way to create knowledge today the approach is more toward to people, the knowledge is created basically by humans and their interactions, the proposal is to use a knowledge management model more approached to people because the knowledge is better created on a social interaction.","PeriodicalId":278097,"journal":{"name":"2017 Twelfth Latin American Conference on Learning Technologies (LACLO)","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116245127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In education, they have the potential to boost exploratory learning of engineering concepts by providing real-time information to students during their learning activities. With this goal in mind, we developed the Smart Cube: a Smart Object for physics courses. This device — by means of an embedded acceleration sensor, a WiFi radio, and a microprocessor — provides real-time acceleration measurements and when combined with an Augmented Reality interface allows students to explore concepts such as normal force and friction. This article presents the design of our first prototype and reports our first experiments on the use of the Smart Cube in an undergraduate physics laboratory course. Preliminary results show a good acceptance and user experience by the students and point towards possible benefits in deeper understanding of engineering concepts.","PeriodicalId":278097,"journal":{"name":"2017 Twelfth Latin American Conference on Learning Technologies (LACLO)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125160728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Determination of the Ability to Inter-operate (What am I doing?), Volume 3. mLOM-ReMIAM/SINED, Metadata Application Profile for Labelling Mobile Learning Objects, and Volume 4.

Although the Mexican standard was defined from best practices implemented by Mexican educational institutions regarding learning objects operation, we consider that its adoption potential among Latin American institutions is very high.
