Abstract
ABSTRACTIn the 21st century, education represents a key factor of economic and social development of a community. The majority of traditional methods intended for education are no longer suitable for it, since they are unable to meet the students’ needs. Mobile learning represents a new educational channel, which allows access from any place at any time. In this paper, an overview of various forms of education is provided, concepts of mobile learning are discussed, educational mobile applications are analyzed, and the design and the prototype of a mobile application intended for learning, called mTester, is described. Finally, the paper presents a case study of mobile learning use, conducted at the Business School of Applied Studies in Blace, Serbia. The first results show an improvement in the realization of courses and in the students’ final grades. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
