Conference theme:   Mobile technology: The future of learning in your hands

mLearn2005

Background

mLearn 2005, the 4th World conference on mLearning, will fulfil the need for stimulating critical debate on and research into theories, approaches, principles and applications of mLearning (mobile learning). It will provide an opportunity for professionals from industry, as well as researchers, educators, technologists and practitioners, to share their knowledge, experience and research in the various areas where mLearning is applied. The conference will also serve as an incubator to promote mLearning in Africa.

mLearn 2005 will build upon the findings and shared knowledge of the preceding conferences:

• mLearn 2002 

• mLearn 2003

• mLearn 2004

Two mobile learning projects, both supported by the European Commission, have collaborated to organise a series of international conferences on Mobile and Ambient Learning. Both projects brought an international perspective to the conferences - MOBIlearn has partners in Australia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, the UK and USA, and m-learning has partners in Italy, Sweden and the UK. 

mLearn 2005 is jointly organised by the Tshwane University of Technology, the University of South Africa and the University of Pretoria.
