---------------------------------------

Over the past decade, digital networks and operations have entered 
institutions worldwide. Highly mobile, context-aware, and pro-active 
services provide significant benefit to the users  in terms of 
simplicity, comfort, transparency, and finally quality of our everyday 
activities. This special issue aims to advance understanding of research 
challenges and opportunities in applying the pervasive computing 
paradigm to the education domain. It addresses technologies, models, 
algorithms, tools, architectures, and applications as well as social 
models and prerequisites of pervasive education. We seek for 
multi-disciplinary contributions that reveal interesting aspects 
especially from a technical, pedagogical and organizational perspective, 
and that exploit new forms and possibilities of teaching and learning 
that benefit learners, teachers, tutors, and educational institutions. 
Relevant topics include, but are not limited to:

  - intelligent, context-aware, pro-active teaching and learning systems

  - mobile, ad-hoc learning network issues

  - mobility of educational services and sessions, device independency

  - document, knowledge, and service management for pervasive education

  - process, context, and data modeling for pervasive teaching and learning

  - cooperation, collaboration, and communities in pervasive education

  - adaptation and self organization in the learning process

  - global, multi-lingual educational networks

  - tangible, natural-language user interfaces and interaction technologies

  - dedicated challenges of security & trust

  - didactic models for pervasive education and their implementation

  - organizational aspects of pervasive education
