| Abstract: | m-Portal is Ultralab's contribution to m-Learning, a 3-year pan-European project funded under the EU IST Programme. m-Learning addresses literacy and numeracy skills needs of disadvantaged young adults. m-Portal forms the interface layer to the m-Learning system: a learner management system, a virtual tutor and skills-based learning materials. Our aim is a user-friendly portal layer that is powerful, empowering and engages the learner. Findings from field research with target audiences led us to investigate the outreach potential and possible learning gains of mobile games. There are strong indications that a role-play game implementation of m-Portal would be a valuable future development. |
