UBIQUITOUS LEARNING: A NEW WAY OF LEARNING IN THE TECHNICAL ERA

Abstract

Ubiquitous learning is increasingly attracting academic and public interest, particularly with respect to their operation in education settings. Ubiquitous learning refers to a vision of learning that is connected to all stages on which we live our lives. Learning happens not only in classrooms, but also at home, workplace, playground, library, gallery, and museum and in our daily interactions with others. Furthermore, learning becomes part of doing; we learn not to live more, but to live fully. Ubiquitous learning, a transformative educational paradigm, uses mobile devices, computing, and cloud-based resources to provide anytime, anywhere learning experiences. It emphasizes personalization, adaptability, and seamless integration across devices. Benefits include enhanced learner autonomy, engagement, and flexibility. However, challenges like digital equity, privacy concerns, and robust pedagogical strategies remain. U-learning has the potential to reshape education systems and bridge the gap between traditional and future-oriented approaches.
