  The term “mobiletechnology" refers to any device that is designed to provide access to information in any location, or while on the move. Specifically this would include, but not be limited to mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDA), tablet computers, and laptops. There is a great emphasis placed on self directed learning. The behaviourist idea of an “alteration in behaviour” is used because as the information age continues to progress, more people will be gaining more knowledge, more often and more easily. However, without an alteration in behaviour, it is not deemed to be learning. Figure 1 is a graphic representation of M learning, which in this instance is synonymous with flexible learning. It details the time issue by showing that if information is a) not available, b) not available at a certain time or place, or c) is the incorrect information, and does not result in the required behavioural change, then time is expended unproductively. mLearning is the acquisition of any knowledge and skill using mobile technology, anywhere, anytime, that results in an alteration of behaviour. Geddes, 2004

  Mobile learning is… „learningin a more personalised way, handing over more control to the learners themselves‟ „disruptive learning‟ (Stead, 2006) „holds and heightens student interest, engages students in learning, and provides yet another means for expressive and receptive literacy‟ (Dogeby, 2007) The difference is…

  „a small, cleverlydesigned handheld game can significantly enhance learner performance in mental maths as well as having a positive impact on other aspects of classroom life‟ (Robertson, 2009) „mobile devices can have a positive impact on learning experiences for both educators and students‟ (McFarlane, Triggs& Yee, 2008; Ng & Nicholas, 2009)

  „Schools with one-to-onecomputing programs have fewer discipline problems, lower dropout rates, and higher rates of college attendance than schools with a higher ratio of students to computers…but for one-to-one programs to boost student achievement as well, they must be properly implemented.‟ Project Red (Revolutionizing Education) June 2010

  Ambient Intelligent Learning AmIis the vision that technology will become invisible, ubiquitous, enabled by effortless interactions, and aware of and autonomously adaptive to, its environment and users. It will provide high quality information and will be available to any user, anywhere, at any time, and on any device (Lindwer et al 2003).
