Mobile learning provides unique learning experiences for learners in both formal and informal environments, supporting various pedagogies with the unique characteristics that are afforded by mobile technology. Mobile learning, as a growing topic of interest, brings challenges of design for teachers and course designers alike. Current research on mobile learning has covered various aspects such as personalisation, context sensitivity, ubiquity and pedagogy. While existing theories and findings are valuable to the understanding of mobile learning, they are fragmented and separate, and need to be understood within the broader mobile learning paradigm. This dissertation unifies existing theories into a method for mobile learning design that can be generalised across mobile learning applications. This method develops from a strategy. By seeking objectives, identifying different approaches to learning and understanding the context in which the course will exist; the method helps to guide the content, delivery and structure of the course towards a successful implementation that is evaluated against the initial objectives set out. 2014-10-17T10:06:22Z 2014-10-17T10:06:22Z 2014 Master Thesis Masters MCom http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8501 eng application/pdf Department of Information Systems Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town
