Mobile Learning and Performance Support or mLearning

More than 50 percent of all job-tasks are now performed by workers while they are on the go. Mobile computing has come of age through internet access and multimedia capabilities and thus, through mobile learning, workers have access to information anywhere, at any time, to support optimal achievement in learning new skills.

With today’s mobile computing, rich multimedia information is readily available at the user’s fingertips. Diverse and appropriate content types may be delivered on multiple mobile devices, depending on the end-user’s tasks and workflow. Wireless and mobile systems may be used to push personalized information, as well as to send reminders and notifications concerning learning and job tasks. A mobile device can be easily carried and becomes an extension of the learning environment.

Mobile learning can also be expanded to obtain information from the field in real time, which would otherwise be difficult. With mobility, learning and knowledge acquisition becomes a two-way medium.
