Paper Abstract:	The advent of mobile technologies has created opportunities for delivery of learning via devices such as PDAs, mobile phones, laptops, and PC tablets. Collectively, this type of delivery is called m-learning. While m-learning can be thought of as a subset of e-learning (which is web-based delivery of content and learning management), the emerging potential of mobile technologies tends to indicate that m-learning, while mostly situated within the e-learning framework, also has links directly to the “just enough, just in time, just for me” model of flexible learning, and is therefore just one of a suite of options that can be adapted to suit individual learning needs (Peters K, 2007). The aim of this project is to develop mobile learning for the mainstream education and training, the implementation of which entirely depends on the framework, mobile device and the technology adopted in delivering the content. This paper reflects on various stages in the implementation of a mobile learning system at St George’s University of London. The study includes a detailed analysis of a mobile learning system which can be integrated to the existing e-learning system used at the University.
