Abstract:
Mobile devices are being widely used in education for many purposes such as an instruction tool for learning. However, mobile devices suffer from the limitation of capabilities and resources. Potential solutions to this issue must consider the mobility and personal characteristics of potential education seekers. This paper theoretically describes how Semantic Web might be used to facilitate the interaction between mobile devices and learners in mobile and ubiquitous learning environments to provide mobile learners with the best learning experience.
