European mobile learning projects provide a distinct perspective in the evolving field of mobile learning research and development. The article investigates the origins and driving forces behind European mobile learning innovation. The authors propose context as a central construct, examine mobile learning theories across physical, technological, conceptual, social, and temporal mobility, and assess its impact on educational practices and policy. The study identifies key lessons learned from European mobile learning experiences to date.
In the evolving landscape of mobile learning, European researchers have conducted significant mobile learning projects, representing a distinct perspective on mobile learning research and development. Our article aims to explore how these projects have arisen, showing the driving forces of European innovation in mobile learning. We propose context as a central construct in mobile learning and examine theories of learning for the mobile world, based on physical, technological, conceptual, social and temporal mobility. We also examine the impacts of mobile learning research on educational practices and the implications for policy. Throughout, we identify lessons learnt from European experiences to date.
