Abstract
A review of the literature and our own experience is Engineering education reveals the following four major issues in delivering effective instruction: Problems in Content Understanding, Problems in Concentration and Lack of Variety, Need for Multiple Explanations, and Lack of Assistance. Performance-centred approach helps in solving all these four problems. Mobile technology enhanced learning will contribute to the continued development of mobile learning and to address the imbalance between the availability of mobile devices and the lack of education and training provision on the sophisticated communications devices which every student and actively working person carries and uses constantly-except in education.
