This article is devoted to the experience of applying the Blended Project-Based Learning Approach Using Visualization Technology in teaching mobile application development for IT-students. The Blended Project-Based Learning Approach Using Visualization Technology is based on a project-based method, pair programming, teamwork and using of digital educational resources as a visual learning content. The authors describe the impact of the used teaching methods and digital educational resources on the student's cognitive skills during the mobile application development. During workshop the students gained hands-on experience on mobile application development through «active doing» method, interactive tasks and building different types of mobile application projects. The workshop's curriculum is developed in terms of the scaffolding. So, the students improve the skills develop projects starting from simple «Hi, Kazakhstan!» to a complete software with functions of search and update from the Internet. The well-designed project topics on development mobile application arise the interest and provide the high motivation of the learners. The impact of Blended Project-Based Learning Approach is evaluated through questionnaire, testing and evaluation of mobile application projects developed by students. The effectiveness of the blended approach for teaching mobile application development is confirmed by the empirical data

“…With the advent of distance learning and especially mobile learning, several authors started to argue that the teaching of programming should be done directly on the mobile devices itself [4]- [7]. Some authors also advocate for combining traditional, distance, and mobile learning strategies in order to successfully teach programming contents [18].…”

Abstract-Software development education requires students to be engaged in realistic software projects, which are increasingly developed in geographically distributed teams. Therefore, we started to include distance learning based projects into our software development courses. Combining distance learning and mobile technologies opens possibilities for new teaching methods, facilitating personalized, informal, situated, contextualized and ubiquitous learning. In this paper, we introduce a novel course module design, gradually increasing mobile distance learning activities. It leverages different teaching methods, including elements from Just-in-Time Teaching, project-based learning and peer assessment.

Abstract-Mobile computing and wireless technologies are transforming traditional educational patterns. The use of mobile devices for educational purposes led to what is known as mobile learning. In recent years, mobile learning strategies have been increasingly adopted in higher education. They support personalized, informal, situated, contextualized and ubiquitous learning. In practice, we have witnessed that courses in software engineering education often do not lead to the expected learning outcomes. In this paper, we will therefore present a motivating and learner-centered approach for mobile e-learning in application prototyping. We use mobile devices as key enabler serving different didactic functions in the context of learning, prototyping and collaboration.
