Mobile technologies have “transformed” our lives and they have a very profound effect on our day-to-day activities. MELS introduces emerging “teaching” and “learning” practices with mobile technologies”.

“Teaching” is a passive term in learning. The modern society should cultivate “scaffolding”, “mentoring”, “facilitating”, and etc. instead. These new approaches of learning will then promise the knowledge and skills acquired can be applied to solve complicated situations and to create meaningful innovations.

Learning has taken a big leap with the emergence of mobile technologies. Learning can happen more effectively with new genres (ways) of learning: games, social networking, competition, Stories & Movies, Popular cultures and etc. which you can’t afford to neglect them.

Mobile technologies have “transformed” our “leisure activities” in many aspects: nature of the activities, social interactions and new enriching activities.
