Abstract :
PhotoStudy is a system that supports vocabulary study on both wired and wireless devices. It is designed to make it simple to annotate content with multimedia such as images and audio recorded on these devices. This paper presents a prototype system that uses wireless markup languages and Java MIDlets. User evaluations have been conducted, and are being continued in our iterative design approach. We report the results from questionnaire evaluations, observational studies and interviews.
