Although related to e-learning and distance education, it is distinct in its focus on learning across contexts and learning with mobile devices.

In other words mobile learning decreases limitation of learning location with the mobility of general portable devices. The term covers: learning with portable technologies including but not limited to handheld computers, MP3 players, notebooks and mobile phones.
