Abstract
This paper describes implementation guidelines for ubiquitous seamless mobile learning featuring the learning-log system named SCROLL (System for Capturing and Reminding of Learning Log). This system helps users to share and remind ubiquitous learning experiences. We review recent researches on mobile assisted learning in order to set pedagogically-based guidelines for instructors, learning environment designers and the administrative end or decision makers including ICT coordinator, and local authorities. Main foci in our guidelines are for language teachers to practice SROLL-based mobile learning in their classes for both in-class and out-class learning according to their situation or conditions. Our goal is to help educators to implement an effective seamless mobile learning environment with SCROLL.
Highlights
Pervasion of high-efficiency mobile phones or smartphones has expanded the potential of mobile learning environments
What factors will influence successful mobile learning? we will pick out four influential factors and show guiding principles to assess the feasibility of successful mobile learning implementation
This paper has set practice-based guidelines for instructors or any kind of parties who are interested in ubiquitous seamless learning to implement an environment using SCROLL
Summary
Pervasion of high-efficiency mobile phones or smartphones has expanded the potential of mobile learning environments. There have been quite a few technology-driven researches on these fields, but sophisticated systems (software) and devices (hardware) being developed, unless we have a good guidance so that practitioners can use them in a real educational environment, they might be useless, being left unused. Such guidelines have rarely been found out on any journals so far. It is our aim to produce new guidelines on implementation of an effective seamless mobile learning environment.
