## Introduction[edit | edit source]

Mobile learning can refer to e-learning with mobile technology or refer to a change in educational practice, such as flexible, ubiquitous, location-based learning.

See also: ubiquitous learning, One-to-one TEL

"Leveraging ubiquitous mobile technology for the adoption or augmentation of knowledge, behaviors, or skills through education, training, or performance support while the mobility of the learner may be independent of time, location, and space." (ADL Mobile Learning Handbook, Basics, retrieved nov 1 2012).

## Research[edit | edit source]

In schools, most most mobile applications do not seem to be particularly disruptive (Burden, Kearney, M, Schuck & Hall 2019). However, Tho et al. showed that learners can come up with innovative uses outside the classroom.

## Technology[edit | edit source]

* Most mobile devices do include a modern Webbrowser that can run HTML5
* So-called "apps" are developed using rather proprietary and incompatible technology between operating systems.

## Links[edit | edit source]

### Various[edit | edit source]

* G1:1 Project Inventory

* Slides by Marcus Birtwhistle and Jason Haag

* Are we wired for mobile learning (2011). Nice infographic (but too optimistic with respect to the net generation)

### Resource sites[edit | edit source]

* Mobilelearningportal.org

* MobileEd.org for learners and teachers.

* ADL Mlearning Guide. This is a condensed version of the ADL handbook that can be read on mobile devices (HTML/iOS/Android).

### Journals[edit | edit source]

* International Journal of Interactive Mobile Technologies (iJIM)

* International Journal of Mobile Learning and Organisation (IJMLO)

* International Journal of Mobile Communications (IJMC)

### Bibliographies[edit | edit source]

* literature database of the London Mobile Learning Group (LMLG). In particular you will find all literature that was cited in the Pachler et al. book 'Mobile Learning: Structures, Agency, Practices' (Springer, 2010).
