Abstract
The emergence of m-learning, i.e., mobile learning, has given further strength to traditional teaching and method, as it has a great advantage in social interaction, teaching/learning methods, and knowledge transformation. The m-learning cannot be an alternative to the traditional teaching methods, but a technical facet of new teaching and learning. It is alternative to the e-learning, but with many major changes. A learner plays a very critical role in any learning environment. Learner, as a factor of m-learning, also makes certain impact on m-learning environment. Learning objectives are impacted by different attributes of the student and influences the way in which learning happens. The characteristics of the learner play a vital role in determining whether or not the learning experience is meaningful. Understanding of these learner characteristics is dynamic and a complex process. This chapter will discover the factors that make an impact on m-learning system, and then it analyzes roles of a learner and their contribution to m-learning.
