ABSTRACT
Mobile learning is a term used to define the type of learning that takes place when learner has some kind of mobile computer, making use of its connectivity, location awareness, content and applications to learn at a time and place of the learner's choosing. Mobile technology for learning has become, as widely and long predicted a big story worldwide. Schools have always been interested in new and mobile technologies, but the days of technology being designed and produced specifically for them are, for most part, gone. Consumerisation of technology is the dominant trend. Once upon a time in the UK, schools conducted pilot projects with mobile technology. They were set up with commercial partners and technical support, and some were partnered with university researchers looking for learning gains. Teachers and school leaders who had pioneered the use of mobile technologies now feel free to take quick steps forward as mobile devices become suitable for both school and home use.
