Our research proposes an innovative approach that aims at supporting pedagogical designers and teachers to reach |new| learners of today or |digital natives| by allowing them to model, generate and simulate new pervasive, context-aware and adaptive learning scenarios. The core element of this approach consists of an educational modelling language called context-aware adaptive activities modelling language (CAAML) and based jointly on activity theory and IMS-LD standard. To define CAAML language, firstly, we start with identifying relevant concepts that can describe the domain of |malleable learning| which is a useful designation we have found for pervasive, context-aware and adaptive learning. Secondly, we describe its meta-model based on those domain concepts. After, we present the developed authoring tool called ContAct-Me which is based on the CAAML language. To test and evaluate our work, we finally present a learning scenario that values the importance of the proposed graphical language in expressing, modelling and simulating new malleable learning environments.
