M-learning, when e-learning makes use of mobility

M-learning: is mobile training the future?

Although e-learning enables training in any place and at any time, m-learning goes further by reaching your learners outside those places where they usually have access to their training. A means of training suited to a young target audience which is familiar with new technologies.

Although m-learning is growing quickly, it cannot deliver the same training content as distance training on traditional PCs. The content and form of m-learning courses must be examined and optimised for remote distribution using tools with different technical characteristics.



5 good reasons to use mobile learning

Make the best use of Web 2.0 within a community logic

- Ideal for carrying out training exercises

- Develop new activities thanks to the features offered by mobile ICTs (photo, film, email, chat, calendar, calculator, social networks, etc.)

- Propose a new kind of distance training using an everyday device

- Dematerialise the boundaries of the training space



The m-learning that has been talked about for the last 2 years has been so far more of a marketing argument than an educational reality. However, with the arrival of tablets which in some cases are taking precedence over PCs, the trend could be quickly reversed.
