Title :
Pervasive Computing as a Classroom-Based Course
Author_Institution :
Univ. of Sussex, Brighton, UK
Abstract :
This article outlines a pervasive computing course taught at the University of Sussex. The author discusses how the content, delivery, and assessment are adapted to the students and their overall program of study. The taught-course approach-as opposed to research- or project-based courses-works for pervasive computing, introducing wider ideas such as engagement with research literature, experimental practices, and the use of sensors and advanced networks.
