often simply referred to as mobile learning
Mobile learning can be many things to different groups of people. Superficially, it appears from the
outside to be learning via mobile devices such as smartphones, MP3 players, laptops and tablets.
Certainly, these are important in enabling mobile learning.
"Early definitions of [mobile learning], which focused predominantly on the attributes of mobile
technology, have given way to more sophisticated conceptualisations suggesting that mobility is the
central issue (Winters, 2006). This denotes not just physical mobility but the opportunity to overcome
physical constraints by having access to people and digital learning resources, regardless of place and
time."
Kukulska-Hulme (2010)
But mobile learning is more than just using a mobile device to access content and communicate with
others it is about the mobility of the learner. According to Mike Sharples, a leading authority in the
field, mobile learning can be defined as:
"the processes (both personal and public) of coming to know through exploration and conversation across
multiple contexts amongst people and interactive technologies"
Sharples, M. et al, 2007
Educational content refers to digital learning assets which includes any form of content or media made
available on a personal device.
Mobile learning is the delivery of learning, education or learning support on mobile phones, PDAs or
tablets. E-Learning has provided the ability for traditional learning to break out of the classroom setting
and for students to learn at home. Mobile learning has enhanced upon e-learning by taking it a step further
and allowing students to learn virtually anywhere a mobile signal is available

Delivering learning content and experiences to learners when and where they need it. It is learning that
can be accessed at any time and any place to support performance. Typically m-learning is accessed via
a mobile device that facilitates just-in-time learning and on-demand learning. m-learning can be formal
or informal, structured or unstructured. It is flexible, self-paced and self-directed. m-learning is driven
by the learner, rather than the technology learners use to access it.
