From E-learning to Ubiquitous Learning; Theoretical Principles

Background: Because of approaches to learning in every place and at any time, ubiquitous learning with knowledge of the context and framework, and due to the development of wireless technologies and sensors, the learning process has changed. Mobile learning and ubiquitous learning as models of elearning that refer to the acquisition of knowledge, attitudes and skills through wireless technologies. the purpose of the present research was to investigation two this technology. Methods: this study was a Library research methods and note taking had been utilized. Results: The effectiveness of elearning and its new methods including mobile learning and ubiquitous learning are in need of attention to the approaches and theories of elearning, because by employing elearning methods, we can find solutions for teaching and learning that would meet the needs of todays education and training. Conclusions: In recent years, elearning researchers have found that the development of wireless communications and sensor technology has changed the research issues of elearning to mobile learning and then, it has changed mobile learning to ubiquitous learning.
