“…There are six case studies (for example Mavrou et al , ) and three surveys based on questionnaires (for example Istenic Starcic & Niskala, ; Sheehy, ). In this category, the majority of studies were conducted on a sample of up to 10 participants (for example Liu & Hong, ; Mavrou et al , ) or 10 to 50 participants (for example Hegarty et al , ; Istenic Starcic, ). Two studies used samples of between 200 and 500 participants (Istenic Starcic & Niskala, ; Singleton & Simmons, ).…”

She teaches instructional design and educational technology, learning environments, information and communication technology (ICT)-assisted learning for people with special needs, ICT in health, media education and contemporary learning theories. She is conducting research at all levels of education, adult education, workplace learning, professional development and teacher education. Andreja's website has details of her activities and publications: http://andreja-istenic-starcic.eu/. Spela Bagon is a PhD student at the University of Primorska Faculty of Education. She is conducting research in the field of ICT-assisted learning-environment design for primary school. AbstractResearch and development of information and communication technology (ICT)supported learning for people with disabilities has not received adequate attention. It is also difficult to access research findings and developments in this field. Under the ENABLE Network of ICT Supported Learning for Disabled People (2011-2014) project, an emerging European Union reference point portal for end-users will provide this information for a broad audience. In the design phase of the project idea, the authors of this paper conducted a review of papers indexed in Web of Science to provide a needs assessment and a design template for the project objectives. The results of the search clearly showed that ICT-supported learning for people with special educational needs is in the domain of the educational technology journals, with more papers published in the British Journal of Educational Technology than in any other journal. This paper presents the results of a content analysis of all papers published from 1970 to 2011 in seven educational technology journals indexed in Web of Science. More papers were published from 2006 to 2011 (44.7%) than during any other of five periods examined. Findings in terms of ICT intervention, disability groups, groups of study participants by relationship with ICT, and research design, together with trends in published studies in terms of mainstreaming and inclusion, are presented. The main objective of the study was to identify the level of inclusion through analysis of educational context (special schools [30.51%], mainstream schools [28.81%] and general support for life [40.68%]). Based on content analysis, ICT interventions were classified into the two categories of technical intervention in the pedagogical context (62.71% of all papers published) and technical intervention in the wider context (37.29% of all papers published), with nine paper types identified: papers on ICT access, papers on teaching and learning methods, papers on development and testing of ICT solutions, reviews, assessments, papers on inclusion, papers on behavioural and social development, papers on use of information technology and papers on interaction. Papers were also categorised according to types of disability and according to groups of study participants by relationship with ICT.

“…"Smart classroom" serves a smart classroom environment using smart technologies such as voice-recognition, computer-vision, and other technologies and provides a tele-education environment similar to a real classroom and facilitates collaborative learning among learners [28]. "Learning support system" focuses on supports for special learners such as hearing-impaired students; it serves some learning care methods [29]. "Computer-based learning" serves a personalized recommendation according to learner's learning style [30].…”

The introduction of useful microblogging services like Twitter derives significant changes in various areas of society. The smart tools such as mobile devices and microblogging services have led to great changes in the traditional way of education. It is possible to access good quality educational contents and methods in a more convenient way. Although a lot of smart tools have been applied for educational application, there are only limited researches that demonstrate the educational effectiveness of smart tools through experiment considerations. In this study, research documents about smart learning from 2007 have been treated based on 5 major searching sites; we investigate the research trends of smart learning of education. The opinion of the researchers about the educational use of smart tools is analyzed. Then, through substantial experiment, we are acquainted that the smart tools have a positive effect on the educational environment. As a practical application, the Twitter microblogging service is used for educational communications in 2 classes of a university during a semester. As a result, we can find that smart tools contribute to increase the efficiency of education, but learners and teachers need to pay considerable efforts on the use of smart tools to achieve the purpose.

“…Many researchers have proposed strategies to maintain students' motivation to learn which comprise reminding students about learning activities, praise, reward, assistance and encouragement (Printrich & Schunk, 1996;Liu & Hong, 2006;Iniguez & Canton, 2010;ChanLin & Chan, 2007;Hewitt 2005;Yen & Chen, 2007;Ogata, et al, 2008;Liu & Tsai 2008, Karakostas & Demetriadis, 2011Lema & Agrusa, 2009;Lai, 2011). However, as instructors of distance learners, they can continue to maintain students' learning interest by providing assistance over smart phone such as downloaded notes with their phones.…”

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.
