Higher education institutions are called upon toprovide for the competencies and skills that foster design for socialchange and innovation. In addition, knowledge and skills alliances areencouraged by funding bodies to cultivate, share and disseminatecompetencies that foster social entrepreneurship and innovation. However,little is known on how mlearning can facilitate this process, how it cancontribute towards social change, innovation and entrepreneurship.The topics of interest can go beyond the conference theme, and caninclude any of the following:· The development, deployment and implementation of mlearning in thecontext of social entrepreneurship, innovation and social change· mLearning as a tool that fosters social change and social entrepreneurship· Innovations in mlearning theory and pedagogy· From pilot projects to mainstream implementation: strategies for thedeployment of mLearning· Mobile technology to support open and distance learning· Mobile technology for teaching and learning support· Assessment techniques and practices in mLearning· Design and development of learning material for mLearning· Learning objects and metadata for mLearning· Informal and lifelong learning with the aid of mobile technologies· Challenges for mLearning in developing countries· Building and implementing mLearning strategies in educationalinstitutions, companies and public sector organisations· mLearning management systems (mLMSs)· Computer tablets· Creating interactive and collaborative mLearning environments· Future trends in mLearning technology, including the impact of emergingtechnologies· Emerging hardware and software for mLearning including wearabletechnologies· Location-aware technologies· Contextual and situated learning· Augmented reality· Serious gaming and simulations· Ambient intelligence and ubiquitous learning Submission InformationThe conference solicits regular papers (no more than 8 pages), short papers(no more than 4 pages), as well as posters (no more than 2 pages).
