## What was submitted to the IEEE as abstract
We are living in an age of the “Internet of Things”(IoT) and “Internet of Self”(IoS), pervasive and omnipresent electronic
media, media and
for many, the self, “quantified self” at the physical and biochemical
levels, is “quantified" and digitally stored, and socially shared. levels. In turn, these
have implications for education. How are tools, particularly those that enable real time monitoring of self in the form of glasses, watches, wearable computing devices, and
fabrics, being fabrics can these be harnessed for education?
What can we learn from the past?
The use of video is now ubiquitous in learning situations including the use of short video sequences demonstrating practice exercises and instructional sequences (eg Khan Academy) allowing anytime anywhere study. Rapid learning from the future and its associated self model theory
(see the citation Dowrick (Dowrick 2012) draws on over four decades of self modeling using purposefully constructed videos. These have been used to teach, through observation, individuals skills and procedures that they are not able to achieve at present, but by viewing a possible future depicting the individual successfully engaged in achieving, rapid learning takes place usually within several viewings. These Feedforward video clips are typically less than two minutes in length
(see Dowrick (Dowrick 1976). Thus there is now an opportunity to merge through comparison and contrasting how the two technologies compare with each other in furthering education.
Despite several implementations of the self measurement technologies, it is not clear how self modeling and emergent technologies based on the Internet of Things, wearable computing, and personal monitoring devices compare and contrast with each other to further education.
It is clear that the internet of things and the internet of self (personalized learning opportunities) play and will continue to play a huge part in the developing world. We need to be clear we are talking about the opportunity to learn. To make an opportunity become a learning experience we need the individual to engage in a cognitive process, wearing or carrying a device provides the opportunity, cognition the

Hence the objective of this paper is to provide a comprehensive survey of the literature in the form of a systematic review and
where possible, meta analysis of the effectiveness of wearable computing and “Internet of Things” for learning and teaching effectiveness, and compare and contrast the results, and the technological implementations with what is known about the
Internet of self through the effectiveness of self modeling. Such a comparison will be helpful in predicting the potential success and may provide new directions for the use of the emergent tools.
The organization of the paper will be in three parts as
follows. We shall first provide follows: a brief background history of the emergence of the Internet of Things, the concept of video self modeling and describe their potential in changing teaching and learning practices in the tertiary sector particularly in professional
education. Next, we shall conduct education a systematic review of the effectiveness of the emergent technologies (Internet of things, and wearable computing devices) for educational purposes, and finally, we shall provide a synthesis of how the more effective technologies can be compared, contrasted, and combined with the practices of self modeling to foster
more effective
learning, thereby creating effective, cost-efficient learning tools.
The review will focus on the following question, “Compared with traditional approaches, what is the overall effectiveness of wearable technology and Internet of Things based applications in fostering teaching and learning in professional degrees (eg nursing, health, education)?” learning.
We shall select English language intervention studies published in the last 10 years.
We shall search electronic databases (ERIC, Medline/Pubmed/University of Canterbury library databases), and in addition, hand search other databases, reference lists of the original documents, and search for fugitive literature by contacting domain experts, existing projects, and notable authors in the field. In the The review,
We shall will critically appraise information
from the literature to study identifying possible
biases to biases, ascertain the quality of the studies, and rank order the
publications on their assessed qualities. publications. We
shall will estimate summary effect sizes for
different differing combinations

This process will lead to a The resulting discussion of

results and implications of the systematic review in the light of the self modeling as a pedagogical tool to enhance learning and teaching practices.
At the time of writing this abstract, no review of the effectiveness Internet of
