24 of October, 2007 By: Marcelo Milrad

The workshop “Design Challenges for Future Mobile Learning Environments” is a joint effort of the Virtual Doctoral School (VDS), a project of Kaleidoscope, a Network of Excellence which brings together European teams in technology – enhanced learning, and the Kaleidoscope Mobile Learning SIG. This event is organised by the Center for Learning and Knowledge Technologies and it will be held on November 1-2. The purpose of this VDS workshop is to elaborate and explore those aspects related to the design, implementation and evaluation of future learning environments supported by mobile technologies. Seventeen European PhD students who are conducting their research projects within the field of mobile learning will attend this event. The central questions that will be explored at the workshop are:

1. What are the important research questions relating to mobile learning?
2. Which learning aspects and processes should be considered while designing challenging mobile learning environments?
3. What new scenarios and applications will emerge, and how they should be implemented?
4. What are appropriate methods to research the design and evaluation of
mobile learning environments?
5. Which are the most appropriate ways of assessing learning in these environments?
