Journal Title: International Journal of Management, IT and Engineering - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
With the exponential development in technology, there is always the danger that the equilibrium between technology and learning is disturbed. But Mobile Learning or short M-Learning creates completely new possibilities in learning. M-Learning creates completely new learning scenarios For example, a lecture about the unique architectural design of a building could take place at the building itself. This creates an entirely new learning experience This paper discusses the place of M-Learning as Part of E-Learning and D-Learning Relationships between D-, E-, and MLearning It also critically investigates the potentials of M-Learning while examining the positive and negative effects of M-Learning for learners. Furthermore, it will investigate what kind of learners may and may not benefit from M-learning. This paper also discusses how M-Learning can support classical learning and some M-learning practices that are in different sectors such as corporate, university and military have been mentioned This paper is a review of M-learning literature for understanding and discussion of current perspectives and theories in mobile learning In the end the paper describes issues and special care needed when designing learning material with the mobile devices in mind.
