Context and Concepts in Mobile Learning
Jaldemark, Jimmy
International Association for Development of the Information Society, Paper presented at the International Association for Development of the Information Society (IADIS) International Conference on Mobile Learning (Lisbon, Portugal, Mar 14-16, 2013)
This reflective paper discusses the contextual and situated character of concepts in mobile learning. It aims at challenging current conceptualizations of mobile learning by utilizing ideas from pragmatist and socio-cultural perspectives. This challenge includes a framework that embraces a distinction between interactional and transactional world-views. The paper suggests a dynamic non-dualistic view of mobile learning. This view includes examples of concepts that might be appropriate for conceptualizations of mobile learning. [For the full proceedings, see ED562140.]
