5. M OBILE LEARNING MEANS ...
Learning just-in-time, just enough, and just-
for-me (J.Traxler, 2009)
New forms of content dispersion like course
casts, Moblogs, and Twitter feeds (S. Kumar,
2010)
Students’ increased competence in problem-
solving (T. Rekkedal, A. Dye, 2007)
Improvements in collaboration and behaviour;
increased motivation (Attewell J., Savill-Smith S.,
R. Dough, 2010)
Delivering educational experiences that would
otherwise be difficult or impossible (Kukulska-
Hulme, 2010).
10. Methods we used
questionnaires,
interviews,
focus groups,
lesson observations,
audio and video recordings,
SRS feedback surveys,
informal face-to-face discussion
groups,
online forum and blog discussion
20. Do you want to use mobile devices in your
learning experience everyday?
21. Reports of the interviewed students
Mobile devices are the best tools to be used for
both autonomous and collaborative work
The 21st century is the era of technology. We
need m-learning!
I used mobile devices everyday while studying
in Germany
Mobile devices do not replace a teacher but
they provide an amazing visualization of
learning process
Mobile devices can simplify access to
materials and improve academic interaction
22. Survey Results
Smart phones and tablets are the most
appropriate MDs: no need in expensive
computer classrooms
Technologically and psychologically students
are ready to use mobile devices and apps
Students more frequently use MD outside the
classroom in their learning experience than in
classroom work
They very rarely use educational apps for FLL
They don't use mobile devices for productive
or for collaborative activities
23. Challenges
The pressure towards the use of MD is
coming from the students
Instructors unwillingly employ MD, don't
guide the students through available
educational apps
It is necessary to develop our instructors’
mobile literacies
It is a must to work out strategies and
methods of MD implementation into
traditional classroom
24. MOBILE LEARNING METHODS
DEPEND ON environment:
1. Learning
classroom based or autonomous
work
2. Frequency: mobile course or
mobile technology integration
with traditional course
3. Content: pull or push
4. BYOD (bring your own device) or
class sets of MD

27. Assessment and Feedback: HiST SRS
our project partner’s software
Cost-efficient, fast and effective
assessment tool
Provides immediate feedback
Makes every student’s voice
heard at the lecture
Enhances motivation and peer
learning
Very simple - there is no need to
upload the questions
Teachers can get the answers
anonymously
Teachers can visualize the results
immediately
29. Prospects
work out MLearning strategies and
methods to enhance learner autonomy
and to create interactive learning
environment
take advantages of MT in professional
development courses
create and pilot our own educational
grammar/vocabulary apps
