Context-aware activity notification systems have potential to improve and support the social experience of online learning. The authors of this chapter have developed a Context-aware Activity Notification System (CANS) that monitors online learning activities and represents relevant contextual information by providing notification and making the learning activity salient to other participants. The chapter describes previous efforts to develop and support online learning context awareness systems; it also defines the critical components and features of such a system. It is argued that notification systems can provide methods for using the context of activity to support members’ understanding of the meaning of activity. When designed and implemented effectively, CANS can turn course management systems (CMS) into technologies of social interaction to support the social requirements of learning.

With the more robots, the information interaction of multi-robot system becomes more sophisticated and important in a community perception network environment. By exploiting and fusing the learning information of robots in a perception community, the community information sharing mechanism is proposed, as well as updating rules of the community Q-value table. Moreover, considering the existence of delays of learning information transmission, an improved Q-learning method based on homogeneous delays is presented to improve the robot learning efficiency over the community perception network. Finally, the test experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

This paper is concerned with Q-learning , a very popular algorithm for reinforcement learning ,for obstacle avoidance through neural networks. The principle tells that the focus always must be on both ecological nice tasks and behaviours when designing on robot. Many robot systems have used behavior-based systems since the 1980’s.In this paper, the Khepera robot is trained through the proposed algorithm of Q-learning using the neural networks for the task of obstacle avoidance. In experiments with real and simulated robots, the neural networks approach can be used to make it possible for Q-learning to handle changes in the environment.
