Abstract

How to use network recourses based on the latest information and communications technology for school education is highly debated nowadays. An integrated environment to use cutting-edge devices with built-in smart functions and a learning environment based on social network communities are forming making smart learning possible away from the existing standardized and uniform education focused on the college entrance exam. This study examines the change in the educational paradigm from smart technologies and discusses the concept of smart learning and how to view it. In addition, it discusses the purpose and characteristics of smart learning, and the kind of standards we should hold and use for it to help develop true learning among students.
