From 2000, mobile Learning (m-Learning) and ubiquitous Learning (u-Learning) has been the hottest research topic in e-learning, and now, integrating ubiquitous learning into mainstream of education and train has been the direction in the area, which demand new generational elearning system. The paper introduces our research efforts in this direction. Based on the key concepts, such as ubiquitous learning object, mini-courseware, a new generational ubiquitous e-learning system is designed, which can be used for new requirements in m-Learning and u-Learning environments. In the system, learning resource related to a course is encapsulated into different ubiquitous learning objects, and mini-courseware can be assembled dynamically with learning resource extracted from these ubiquitous learning objects, accordingly, a mini-courseware player is designed for the situation. Based on these work, a resource based ubiquitous e-Learning system is designed considering pedagogical requirements under m-Learning and u-Learning environment.
