TECHNOPRENEURSHIP IN YOUR POCKET: CREATING A MOBILE LEARNING APP FOR SKILL DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

Mobile phone technology has witnessed remarkable growth, particularly among the younger generation, catalyzing the rise of mobile learning (mLearning) in educational contexts. This paper explores the expanding role of mobile devices in education, with a focus on Asia's developing countries. The prevalence of smartphones and their educational potential has led to improved learning outcomes and information access. Educational institutions are embracing mobile applications as valuable tools for enhancing educational experiences.

In the realm of higher education, mobile phones have become an integral part of college life, transforming the learning landscape both inside and outside the classroom. Students can seamlessly access learning materials, employ educational apps, and engage in self-directed learning using their smartphones and tablets. The convenience and flexibility offered by these devices pave the way for enriched student learning and academic performance.

The study also examines the challenges of integrating mobile phones in educational settings, underscoring the benefits of utilizing wireless networks and collaborative mobile applications for improved educational results. Mobile learning (M learning) emerges as a dynamic platform that capitalizes on the portability, interactivity, and connectivity of mobile devices, presenting diverse learning opportunities in academic and non-academic scenarios.

This research sheds light on the transformative impact of mobile technology on education and underscores its potential for fostering inclusive and effective learning environments.
