Paper-centric structuring in learning processes

Structuring constitutes an important means for en-hancing individual and collaborative learning proc-esses. This paper introduces two new concepts for augmented semantic structuring of paper-based learn-ing processes. Digital paper bookmarks can be used for individually structuring, indexing and tagging learning documents. The learner cube along with digital paper Post-its provides a new structuring method for collabo-rative face-to-face learning meetings. Both concepts rely on the Anoto technology, permitting to track and digitalize the paper-based learning process. A first pilot study indicates that digital paper bookmarks and tangible interaction are promising tools for structuring the individual learning process.
