ImageMobile phones are transforming into classrooms on the move, offering information on demand via text, infographics and video. In simple terms, m-Learning is the art of using mobile technologies to enhance the learning experience. This service utilizes tools such as digital content from traditional textbooks, and games, amongst others through mobile phones to provide a dynamic learning environment.

As convergent and feature-rich mobile phones become more popular, education through mobiles could well be the logical progression in the learning sphere. This concept of learning marks a turning point in the online education industry, which was so far limited to either Web-based or virtual classrooms.

According to industry experts, in the current scenario where time is critical and training needs are a constant, m-Learning is an apt tool for self-learning. Moreover, with an acute shortage of trained individuals, growing training needs, and strict timelines, m-Learning is well suited to be part of a blended learning model. The best thing about m-Learning is that it is real-time, supports learning on the move, is self-paced and literally in the learner’s hand.
