The study is grounded in the MobiLearn project at the Viktoria Institute and builds on previous work with multimedia scenarios in stationary settings. The Mobile Scenarios Demonstrator (MSD) was developed to address the challenges faced by mobile workers in participating in traditional competence development activities. The MSD allows for asynchronous and collaborative learning, leveraging technologies like wireless LAN and 3G networks to simulate future mobile learning environments. Demonstrations of the MSD provided insights into its potential for structured discussions and competence development in mobile contexts. The thesis concludes with suggestions for future research, including ethnographic studies on the impact of anonymity and friendship on learning, and the willingness of professionals to share knowledge in mobile learning scenarios. \\ \\ (Generated with the help of GPT-4) \\ =====Additional Viewpoints===== Categories: {{tag>3g_technology}} | {{tag>English_publication_language}} | {{tag>Global_geographic_scope}} | {{tag>asynchronous_learning}} | {{tag>collaborative_learning}} | {{tag>competence_development}} | {{tag>ict}} | {{tag>knowledge_sharing}} | {{tag>learning}} | {{tag>mobile}} | {{tag>mobile_learning}} | {{tag>mobile_phone}} | {{tag>mobile_professionals}} | {{tag>mobile_scenarios_demonstrator_(msd)}} | {{tag>mobilearn}} | {{tag>multimedia_scenarios}} | {{tag>nomads}} | {{tag>scenarios}} | {{tag>wireless_networks}} ~~DISCUSSION~~
