Observation on the uses of Mobile Phones to Support Informal Learning - 0 views

  •  
    This paper explores how a group of undergraduate students in one of the university in South of Malaysian use their mobile phones to perform informal learning activities related to the content of their courses outside the classroom. The paper also addresses the usefulness of informal learning activities to support students' learning. The study adopts an exploratory case study design and uses two methods of data collection including questionnaires and interviews. Main findings suggest that students performed informal learning activities mostly from office, home, interacting mainly with classmates. It also shows that students were in control of their informal learning activities without tutor or SMEs' input. However, it was found that students used only a limited number of applications but these were considered useful to their learning. The paper contributes to a discussion of the implications of training and instructional support to help students to take more advantage of mobile phone applications to support informal learning. The conclusion is discussed about the further research in this domain.

    "What I can help you do is avoid the common things that stop learning happen, or slow down the process.Learning takes time and it takes effort - on the part of the "teacher" and on the part of the "learner". By learning, I mean the process by which an individual is able to achieve something more quickly, or with higher quality, through gaining a skill, some knowledge, or starting to exhibit a particular behaviour."
