Abstract-iPad has started to appear in classrooms recently. Studies show that the tablet computer engages students in learning and improves student performance. On the other hand, Wikipedia attracts many attentions in education field as well despite of worries about credibility and reliability. We have developed a prototype of interactive Map-like Wikipedia Visualization in an earlier research project. In order to test the feasibility of such a new technology in classrooms, we conducted an explorative study which combines the usage of iPad, Wikipedia and the visualization in a high school in Macau S.A.R. This paper presents the design of this study and the result we observed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
