Abstract

Mobile learning (m-learning) can be characterized by the ability to promote a strong interaction among apprentices and tutors, assuring greater motivation, convenience and flexibility to the learning process. Mobile learning environments have emerged in this context as a way to support the m-learning initiatives. However, despite their relevance, there is no complete and well-defined set of requirements for such systems. Motivated by this scenario, in this paper we present a requirements catalog for mobile learning environments. The catalog was established from the results of a systematic review conducted in this domain. Additionally, based on the knowledge of domain specialists, the requirements were prioritized to reflect the main experiences, needs and constraints regarding the m-learning development. The catalog adopts a three-level hierarchical structure, in which the main criteria, characteristics and requirements of m-learning environments are defined and detailed.
