Aims & Scope
Advances in Mobile Learning Educational Research (AMLER) (eISSN: 2737-5676) is an open-access, international, refereed journal dedicated to advancing knowledge and understanding of how mobile and emerging technologies transform education, supporting the publication of high-quality, innovative research that bridges theory and practice.
The journal welcomes empirical studies, theoretical papers, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses that explore the pedagogical, technical, and sociocultural dimensions of mobile learning and educational technology, ensuring relevance to a broad education research and practitioner community. In addition to its established focus on mobile technology’s pedagogical applications, AMLER actively invites research on cutting-edge topics in educational technology, including but not limited to:
- The integration of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in mobile learning environments to support personalized, adaptive, and creative learning experiences.
- The design, implementation, and evaluation of immersive technologies (AR, VR, MR) for mobile learning and their impact on learner engagement and cognitive development.
- Applications of blockchain, learning analytics, and IoT in mobile and ubiquitous learning environments.
- Ethical, legal, and societal considerations in the use of AI-powered tools and mobile technologies in education, including data privacy, algorithmic transparency, and equity.
- Strategies to foster computational thinking, digital literacy, and coding skills through mobile learning and educational robotics, with a focus on K-12 and lifelong learning contexts.
- Studies examining inclusive and accessible mobile learning solutions for diverse learners, including learners with disabilities and those in underserved regions.
- Research on teacher professional development and teacher education for the effective integration of mobile learning and emerging technologies.
- Evaluations of educational policies, leadership practices, and innovation management in mobile and digital education contexts.
- The role of mobile learning in STEM education and interdisciplinary learning, exploring how it can address current and future workforce needs.
- Investigations into learner motivation, engagement, and achievement using mobile learning, including culturally responsive pedagogies and gender equity in EdTech.
- Exploration of the intersections between AI, ethics, and sustainability in mobile learning, examining how emerging technologies can contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through education.
We welcome studies that address specific challenges in improving student outcomes, motivation, and engagement, as well as lessons learned from curriculum and instructional changes driven by educational technology.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Mobile Learning in Educational Technology
