Abstract

The promotion of learner autonomy in ubiquitous network environment is dependent greatly on how teachers are aware of their new roles through the use of ubiquitous computing technologies. It's shown that roles teachers play in ubiquitous learning space should shift to less control on learning and more concern on learners. Concrete suggestions on teachers' roles are proposed regarding teachers as idea champion, personal coach, active impetus, feedback provider and information source in ubiquitous network environment. It's hoped that the benefits of learner autonomy may accrue whilst teachers play appropriate and supportive roles in ubiquitous learning space.
