M-learning project and M-EANor: Two teaching projects from the Degree in Computer Science and Engineering

摘要

In the context of the so-called knowledge society, learning-oriented information and communication technologies (ICT) are increasingly becoming an essential element of the teaching-learning process. The University of La Laguna (ULL) is currently carrying out several m-learning experiences aimed at fostering exploratory, interactive learning in classroom settings. This paper lays out the inner workings and results of the M-Learning Project and M-EANor1 teaching initiatives, two apps designed to increase student motivation, engagement and feedback. The use of mobile devices provides a creative, flexible methodology with no time/space restrictions, which helps to overcome learning difficulties.
