Proposal of a Mobile Learning Preferences Model

Abstract

A model consisting of five dimensions of mobile learning preferences â?? location, level of distractions, time of day, level of motivation and available time â?? is proposed in this paper. The aim of the model is to potentially increase the learning effectiveness of individuals or groups by appropriately matching and allocating mobile learning materials/applications according to each learnerâ??s type. Examples are given. Our current research investigations relating to this model are described.
