Research Abstract |
ELPCO (Research Center for e-Learning Professional Competency) has developed its own LMS (learning management system) in collaboration with Japan Unisys. The LMS enables e-learning and m-learning through the use of mobile phones, iPod or other portable devices, while the integration of using a variety of emerging technologies fosters autonomous learning for motivating students and producing successful outcomes. A cell phone can function as a small computer for network-based English learning, and provide drills, tests, tutorials, and social learning on the web. Our study indicated that a more ideal teaching and learning environment could be achieved by blending new technologies. Learners can now study anytime, anywhere, and on any topic, due to the advancement of mobile computing.
