  • Abstract
    As much as mobile technology is enhanced and, more particularly, as much as the speed in which smart mobile devices introduced into the people´s everyday lives, increases the possibilities of the usage of this technology in distance learning. New applications should definitely keep a thin balance among these technological possibilities, the widely used distance learning platforms and the pedagogical subsistence of the educational procedure. Furthermore, they must (i) support the position and make teacher´s work easier, as a leader of the educational process, (ii) take into account the knowledge and creativity of the students, (iii) make a better adaptation of the educational material to the needs, goals, special interests etc. of the students. In this work, an innovative application of mobile technology in learning a foreign language - at this case Russian verbs of motion by Greek students - is presented.
