Research Abstract |
We call indirect learning the learning of a subject matter indirectly as a result of having actively studied another subject matter. We have aimed to establish the information technology required to put indirect learning into practice. In this research, we introduced an indirect learning system which uses tablet devices and large displays. We analyzed learning behavior of system users when they realized indirect learning through implementation of a task with smart devices. As a result, we found that tablet devices were highly efficient in the presentation of information and more time could be used for communication activities such as discussions; furthermore, we learned that the degree of satisfaction in carrying out the task was higher for those using the system.
