OverviewOverview The Context of Mobile and Informal Learning Research

Challenges to gathering data• Observable and non-observable phenomena• Ubiquitous and pervasive nature Data analysis

Research methodologies are being developed

The technologies afford new ways to overcome challenges

Real world learning

Harnessing mobile technologies to observe informal and mobile learning scenarios

Summary MobileHCI and Mobile Design research methods which

are grounded within the methodological theories of: Action Research, Ethno-methodology, Participatory Design and User Centred Design, can be easily adopted, adapted and augmented into Mobile Learning and Informal Learning Design research

Places learners as the main focus of research and design and opens up the potential for learner centered design and research within informal and mobile learning scenarios
