Who is it for?

There are many ways m-learning can be used, it is not confined to any specific age, gender or other group. The learning content can be adapted to fit whatever the user’s specific learning needs and interests are.

m-learning was first developed under a large scale European project to attract young adults back into learning. Since the end of the project in 2004, the user group has expanded to encompass people of all ages, from grandparents getting involved in family learning, adults looking to improve their employment prospects, to pregnant teenagers needing health advice and guidance. Typically, our learners could be said to have one or more of the following characteristics:

not in education or training (including unemployed)
mobile
casual, temporary, self-employed, or
in low-paid/low-skill employment and have literacy or numeracy development needs.

Increasingly, more opportunities for the use of m-learning are becoming apparent, and our work is moving into new and exciting areas. See our Projects section to find out more about the kinds of work we have been involved in, or try out some of our learning materials for yourself online.
