"技术赋能学习"强调以学习者为中心,技术为学习者的学习提供支持。教育APP是技术与学习融合的产物,其开发与应用必然随着技术的发展而不断改进。该文从"技术赋能学习"视角分析了以物联网、云计算、大数据、三维计算和人工智能为代表的新兴技术在教育APP中的应用概况,深度阐述了5种新兴技术在教育APP中的应用前景,旨在从技术变化视角来预判教育APP的发展趋势。分析得出:(1)以射频识别为主的物联网技术将促进教育APP对学习情境信息的自动感知,实现根据学习情境的动态变化为用户提供智能化的学习支持服务;(2)云计算技术将促进教育APP向开源化、微云化和增效功能方向发展,为用户提供按需自助的学习服务;(3)大数据技术可以增强教育APP对用户学习行为的动态反馈和预测功能,为用户的个性化学习提供精准服务;(4)以虚拟/增强现实为主的三维计算技术可以为教育APP用户构建立体化学习场景,增强用户的学习临场感和沉浸式学习体验;(5)人工智能技术将增强教育APP对学习者情绪的感知能力和"自然"交互体验,使教育APP具有"智能导师"和"拟人类意识化"的功能,促使其向智慧型教育APP方向发展。

Learning Powered by Technology" focuses on learners and emphasizes that technology provides support for them. Education APP is a combination of technology and learning, the development and application of which will inevitably be improved with the growth of technology. The application of emerging technologies represented by Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data, three-dimensional calculation and artificial intelligence in education APP, was analyzed in this paper from the perspective of Technology-enabled Learning. The application prospect of such five emerging technologies was expounded in depth, in order to predict the development trend of education APP from the perspective of technological change. The result shows that:(1) Internet of Things based on radio frequency identification will promote the automatic perception of learning situation information of education APP, and provide users with intelligent learning support services according to the dynamic changes of learning situation;(2)Cloud computing will promote the development of education APP to open source, micro cloud and synergy functions, and provide users with on-demand self-learning-services;(3)Big data can enhance the dynamic feedback and forecasting function of education APP on users' learning behaviors and provide accurate services for users' personalized learning;(4)Based on virtual/augmented reality, threedimensional calculation can build three-dimensional learning scenes for education APP users, enhancing user's sense of learning presence and immersive learning experience;(5)Artificial intelligence will enhance the perception of learners' emotions and "natural" interaction experience of education APP. It may enable education APP to have "smart tutor" and "quasi-human consciousness" functions, and promote their development towards intelligent education APP.
