  • Abstract
    The paper deals with a current topic in education relating to the use of latest technologies in higher education. Its main objective is to contribute to the m-learning didactics, i.e. how to implement mobile devices in the process of instruction reflecting their advantages and limits. In the research running in the sample group of engineering (IT) students, first, the ownership and use of mobile devices was detected, both for private and education purposes; second, Comenius´ didactic principles were summarized and reflected in recommendations how to apply them in m-learning; third, the collected data were compared to other related researches.
