What the experts sayabout IJMLO“Organisations need to be agile, adaptive,and creative in order to be successful in theyears ahead. This new journal fills a niche byfocusing on key issues for becoming a“knowledge organisation” and building“organisational intelligence.”
Dr. Jay Liebowitz, ProfessorJohns Hopkins University,USA
“With the increased capability of wirelesscomputer network and 3G-phonetechnology, the integration of mobile deviceand internet has added transparency andpower. The ‘just-in-time’ learning alleviatespeople from the need of memorising not-so-frequently used details, and the wealth ofreferences available through internet, be itextranet or web, expands the ‘expertise’ ofmodern citizens. However, researches in theapplication and applicability of mobilelearning have just begun, and the impact ofthis new channel will no doubt change theway we teach and train the next generationof populace. The establishment of this newjournal is valuable and timely.”
Prof. Dr. Binshan LinLouisiana State University in Shreveport,USA
“I find the journal very exciting in our effortsto deal with issues like globaliasation ofmobile learning and lifelong learning forchanging demographics and learningcommunities. These are major challenges forthe European countries in our programs topromote e-learning societies and newliteracies.”
Prof. Tapio VarisUniversity of Tampere, Research Centre forProfessional Education,Finland
