Wali, Esra; Winters, Niall; Oliver, Martin – ALT-J: Research in Learning Technology, 2008
Although mobile learning is a popular topic in current research, it is not well conceptualized. Many researchers rely on under-theorized conceptions of the topic, and those who have tried to refine the ideas involved have found this to be complex and difficult. In this paper a new interpretation of the concept "mobile learning" is offered, drawing…

Lam, Paul; McNaught, Carmel; Cheng, Kin-Fai – ALT-J: Research in Learning Technology, 2008
This paper explores the concept of pragmatic meta-analytic studies in eLearning. Much educational technology literature focuses on developers and teachers describing and reflecting on their experiences. Few connections are made between these experiential "stories". The data set is fragmented and offers few generalisable lessons. The…

Gakhal, Inderdip; Bull, Susan – ALT-J: Research in Learning Technology, 2008
This paper investigates the potential for simple open learner models for highly motivated, independent learners, using the example of trainee pilots. In particular we consider whether such users access their learner model to help them identify their current knowledge level, areas of difficulty and specific misconceptions, to help them plan their…
