“…In addition, mobile is more portable than a laptop and computer, mobile learning can encourage independent learning (Saedah Siraj, 2005;Eschenbrenner & Nah, 2007;Dimakopoulos & Magoulas, 2009;Beetham & Sharpe, 2013). It also provides the learners to read the materials with their different learning styles (Stead, 2006;Wei, Zhuo, & Zhang, 2008;Helou, Gillet, Salzmann & Rekik, 2008;Wang & Ryu, 2009;Lundin, Lymer, Holmquist, Brown & Rost, 2010;Clark & Mayer, 2011).…”

This purpose of the study is to examine the effects of mobile learning with Quick Response Code (QR code) to promote distance learners' motivation towards the Principles of Economics. This mobile learning with QR code allowed the distance learners to learn and communicate anytime and anywhere with their peers and lecturers. A survey method was employed in this study. A set of 25 items questionnaire constructed by the researcher was used as an instrument for the study. A total of 152 distance learners from one public university in Northern Malaysia were participated in this study. The findings showed that the majority of the respondents had positive results in the questionnaire. This research can be revised to implement in secondary school or different courses of further study.

“…On the mobile platform, Ji et al (2006) proposed a set of design guidelines for mobile phone interfaces with examples including appropriate structuring of content, ease of learning, simplicity of design and application responsiveness. For mobile learning applications, Dimakopoulos and Magoulas (2009) proposed guidelines such as providing tools for communication and information sharing and supporting location awareness and discovery.…”

PurposeMobile devices used in educational settings are usually employed within a collaborative learning activity in which learning takes place in the form of social interactions between team members while performing a shared task. The authors aim to introduce MobiTOP (Mobile Tagging of Objects and People), a mobile annotation system that allows users to contribute and share geospatial multimedia annotations via mobile devices.Design/methodology/approachField observations and interviews were conducted. A group of trainee teachers involved in a geography field study were instructed to identify rock formations by collaborating with each other using the MobiTOP system. The trainee teachers who were in the field were guided by their lab counterparts on the tasks required to identify the rock formations.FindingsParticipants were able to appreciate the fieldwork task as it augmented their classroom lessons. The system allowed them to communicate with one another in order to meet the objectives of the study. However, there were some technical difficulties in relation to the affordance of the mobile and web applications that affected the usefulness of the applications.Originality/valueThis study reports the design and implementation of a mobile annotation system that was evaluated in an actual classroom setting. The results of this work have implications for both mobile applications design and mobile learning.
