* Conference background and goals
Mobile Learning, a Retrospective Outlook
Since its inauguration in 2005, the IADIS Mobile Learning conference
series has provided a forum to present, discuss and promote
international mobile learning research.
Past conference themes have focused on pedagogical approaches most
suited for mobile learning such as collaborative, contextual, and
constructivist which support data collection, context & location
awareness and distributed activities. In 2007 the conference aimed to
harness an international perspective on the 'big issues' in mobile
learning by discussing topics such as the conflict between personal
informal learning and traditional classroom education, the evaluation of
mobile learning and appropriate methods for this setting, the design of
mobile learning activities and the integration of mobile devices in the
broader educational scenarios, among others. In 2008, our concern was
to explore various dimensions of the learners' mobility for example,
physical, conceptual and social, to discern how these in conjunction
with mobile and fix technologies may support learning. Last year, the
conference debated the increasing phenomenon of user generated
content, in particular mobile media.
Five years on, the IADIS Mobile Learning 2010 International Conference
seeks to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of mobile
learning research which provides a retrospective outlook of the field.
We seek contributions under the topics below which illustrate
developments in the field.
* Format of the Conference
The conference will comprise of invited talks and oral presentations.
The proceedings of the conference will be published in the form of a

their papers in the IADIS Journal on Computer Science and Information
Systems (ISSN: 1646-3692) and also in other selected Journals.
