As our society becomes more globalized and interconnected, technology adoption to support lifelong learning presents a continuous challenge for immigrants who need to acquire, update or adjust their learning and skills to the requirements of the host country. Consequently, technology adoption has become an important factor for immigrants to fulfill their specific educational needs with mobile devices allowing ubiquitous access to knowledge at anytime and anywhere. Besides the technical characteristics required for new services that challenge current network architectures, COVID-19 has become an accelerator to immigrants' technology adoption. Social distancing regulations have added pressure to technology adoption for educational purposes. In this paper, we explore how 5G technologies meet these requirements establishing a benchmark for immigrant's mobile learning strategy. Our descriptive framework aims to contribute to the understanding of educational uses of mobile technologies by migrants and the technical requirements to be provided by 5G technologies that will enhance the use of technology for educational purposes. Some 5G applications will be discussed emphasizing their contribution to the learning of immigrants and the actual distance regulations. [For the full proceedings, see ED613257.]
