Enhancing Student Learning Through Mobile Learning Groups

With the advent of mobile phones, particularly smartphones, there has been consideration interest in mobile e-learning. In particular, mobile phones provide an effective channel to complement existing channels to enhance the student learning experience. Coupled with artificial intelligence (e.g., chatbot), more innovative learning functions can be provided. In this paper, we make two contributions to the aforementioned development. First, we present an innovative AI(5) model with five important learning elements: Inception, Interest, Instruction, Information and Inspiration, to facilitate mobile collaborative learning. Second, we present a mobile app prototype for students to form mobile learning groups. In each learning group, students can interact with one another and with a chatbot. Furthermore, the mobile app can facilitate the sharing of open educational resources.
