Mobile training is an evolution of electronic training and is based on mobile learning technology, which is used to design mobile learning courses. Due to the widespread deployment of mobile devices and the need to remain current with developments in mobile technology, it is important to consider the design of appropriate mobile training content to increase learners' engagement in mobile learning courses. However, studies have emphasized the challenges in this area. Therefore, we conducted a systematic mapping study that offers an overview of the current literature in this domain based on a thorough search of the literature by using a process of selection that involves criteria for inclusion and exclusion, data extraction and synthesis strategies. Of the 194 journal articles identified in the initial search stage, 58 were selected as primary studies; they were published between 2009 and 2019. We applied a classification scheme to answer our research questions. Our study examines the current challenges in the design of mobile training content, identifies the key open issues, determines the trends in publication and emphasizes the most widely researched topics in recent years related to the design of mobile training content. Our study identifies the existing challenges and suggests further work on key open issues. Our study also suggests that, considering the major issues related to pedagogical challenges, the research focus should shift toward the design of attractive, interactive and motivating mobile content that is based on a theoretical framework for mobile training courses, and other technological and managerial challenges that can be addressed should be investigated in order to overcome the existing difficulties in the design of mobile training content and to provide better solutions for the continuity of this research domain.

“…Within our project we sought to experiment with several e-learning solutions for the community of teachers and children at the secondary school of Vădastra, in order to address the needs for informal learning using modern IT technologies and elearning paradigms, and evaluate the effectiveness of each particular solution for long-term use; for this purpose we developed mobile-learning solutions described in Ştefan and Gheorghiu (2013) and Gheorghiu et al (2013).…”

The paper discusses the use of 3D online virtual museums as educational instruments for children in economically disadvantaged communities. It discusses the advantages of simulation and immersion as learning enhancements, compared to traditional learning methods, using a case study based on the currently on-going work of development of a virtual museum (www.timemaps.net/timemap/?page_id=6). Presenting chronologically layered information, the museum offers a series of e-learning modules teaching traditional crafts technologies. The current audience is represented by children from a Romanian village community. The paper covers a description of the methodology used, as well as an evaluation of the usefulness of the solution by the target audience. In conclusion, the paper outlines a strategy for further development of the proposed e-learning solution.validating the use of the 3D virtual museums as modern and effective learning instruments. The paper closes with an outline of the future development strategy.

Abstract-Software agents are autonomous entities that can interact intelligently with other agents as well as their environment in order to carry out a specific task. We have proposed a role-based multi-agent system for e-learning. This multi-agent system is based on Agent-Group-Role (AGR) method. As a multi-agent system is distributed, ensuring correctness is an important issue. We have formally modeled our role-based multi-agent system. The correctness properties of liveness and safety are specified as well as verified. Timedautomata based model checker UPPAAL is used for the specification as well as verification of the e-learning system. This results in a formally specified and verified model of the rolebased multi-agent system.
