| dc.description.abstract | Most adults who are working full time have their own mobile devices that they use in the workplace to complete everyday job tasks. Educational organizations need to take advantage of this situation and design courses for delivery on mobile devices so that students who work full time can use their mobile devices to learn from anywhere and anytime. This presentation will describe a project that designed learning materials for delivery on students existing devices and will present preliminary results on this ongoing project. In this study, students were requested to access their regular online course materials from a distance using their existing mobile devices and then asked to provide feedback on their experience using the mobile devices for anytime and anywhere access. | en |
