Description
Summary:Recent advances in mobile and wireless technology could be used to enhance the delivery of power engineering educational programmes. The use of this technology is known as "Mobile Education". Mobile education technology provides unique opportunities for power engineering educators to deliver their educational material to learners via mobile services anywhere at any time. Moreover, the material delivered could be adapted to the learners' needs and preferences. Examples of mobile education of power education are handheld mobile devices such as laptops, mobile phones, bipods and personal digital assistants (PDAs). This paper surveys recent in roads made in this field of educational technology, types of mobile educational services, limitations to mobile educational technology and its envisaged impact on power engineering students learning experience.
