Informal learning research based on mobile portable devices

摘要

Formal learning and informal learning have always been two ways of learning, but little research has been done on informal learning. It wasn’t until the establishment of MOOC in 2012 that this kind of off-campus learning gained traction. This paper first discusses the definition of informal learning and its advantages, then introduces two mobile device-based informal learning methods, and makes an outlook on their prospects and problems.
