Paper Abstract:
|
A key assumption of mobile learning is that its built-in experiences will be enjoyable and proactive, empowering the user
with the knowledge and ability to self-manage. This implies that the benefits and critical success factors of mobile
learning are not based on learning performance alone. To empirically demonstrate this premise, we report on the flow
experience of three different learning spaces, where learners explore a building environment as part of a simulated
security guard education program. Our results showed that mobile learning would not significantly enhance learning
performance, but nevertheless could provide a better learning experience in terms of attention, curiosity and playfulness.
These results can help us to clarify the benefits of mobile learning, and also imply some issues that need to be addressed
in the development of mobile learning systems. |
