Innovation und Trends für Mobiles Lernen

Der Beitrag zeigt aktuelle Trends im Bereich der mobilen und ubiquitären Lerntechnologien auf, welche die klassischen Konzepte von Mobilem Lernen erweitern: a) Mobiler und allgegenwärtiger Zugang zu Lerninhalten b) unterbrechungsfreie Lernunterstützung oder "Seamless Learning Support", die nahtlose Integration von Lernunterstützung in gemischten Lernszenarien, c) Smartphones und Sensoren im Mobilen Lernen, d) Mobile Gaming und mobile Augmented Reality und e) situierte eingebettete Displays. Anhand dieser Trends werden die Konsequenzen für das didaktische Design und darunter liegende Lernkonzepte diskutiert

Reconstructing the Deep Population History of Central and South America

We report genome-wide ancient DNA from 49 individuals forming four parallel time transects in Belize, Brazil, the Central Andes, and the Southern Cone, each dating to at least 9,000 years ago. The common ancestral population radiated rapidly from just one of the two early branches that contributed to Native Americans today. We document two previously unappreciated streams of gene flow between North and South America. One affected the Central Andes by 4,200 years ago, while the other explains an affinity between the oldest North American genome associated with the Clovis culture and the oldest Central and South Americans from Chile, Brazil, and Belize. However, this was not the primary source for later South Americans, as the other ancient individuals derive from lineages without specific affinity to the Clovis-associated genome, suggesting a population replacement that began at least 9,000 years ago and was followed by substantial population continuity in multiple regions
