Objectives

With constant connectivity and the volume of information new mobile devices can deliver, mobile learning will shape the new landscape for organisational training and life-long learning as well as impromptu information gathering for problem solving. IJMLO intends to establish an effective communication channel among decision makers and policy makers in business, government agencies, and academic and research institutions which recognise the important role mobile learning may play in organisations. Specifically, IJMLO aims to be an outlet for creative, innovative concepts, as well as effective research methodologies and emerging technologies.

Readership

IJMLO intends to attract professionals in business, government and technology fields to share their insight in new technologies and new applications. It will also attract researchers in the academia who work in the field of technology management, engineering and business education to disseminate information and to learn from each other's work.
