Abstract:

Education and training is the process by which the wisdom, knowledge and skills of one generation are passed on to the next. This education process has been going on since time immemorial. It is the central process in the conservation and development of human culture. It began at the dawn of time and has continued to today. Eventually society developed for it schools as the privileged places where the education process takes place. Later, in the 12th century, universities were added to schools as additional places where the education process would occur. To these were added, more recently, training centres for the teaching and learning of skills that are needed for the functioning of society. This paper claims that distance education can comprise: mobile learning (m-learning).
