 New emerging learning landscape.
 Challenge can we keep curiosity alive in over achieving
age? John Brown (2010)
 Learner is Social, Collaborative and smart hi tech.
 Mobile Collaborative Learning

9. “How to design informal Mobile learning landscape
using Mobile smart devices in HE institutes?”
Research Question Objectives
1. How informal MCL is applied? 1. To explore the current status of
Informal CL
2. What are the appropriate 2. To identify appropriate learning
learning activities/learning activities/learning objects for
objects for informal MCL? informal MCL
3. What is the role of smart mobile 3. To design new learning
device in informal CL.? experiences supported by mobile
smart devices for Informal CL.
4. How informal MCL will be 4. Develop framework for
conducted in context of HE. conducting Informal MCL

10. Significance of Research
