SummaryBased on preceding work on a mobile learning scenario a mobile game like application, called “HistoBrick”, is being designed. It serves as a platform for exercises, assignments and self studies in combination with the higher education courseware on descriptive statistics. This paper focuses on the mobile application and ignores its embedding into a suitable Learning Management System (LMS). “HistoBrick” aims to provide a ubiquitous tool for learning about statistic distributions and their most important characteristic numbers. The didactical background is inspired by recent ideas about how learning works in the so-called constructivist setting, in general, and the findings of game-based learning, in particular.

Online education helped resume learning that had come to a momentary and uncertain pause with the onset of COVID-19 pandemic across the globe. Since then, learning in many educational institutions continued through synchronous and asynchronous modes, with teaching being undertaken remotely on digital platforms. In this large-scale migration towards online mode of curriculum delivery induced by the pandemic, the institutional learning management system (LMS) had a critical role to play in ensuring uninterrupted learning and student engagement. By drawing heavily from extant works, learnings from MOOC platforms, observations from the LMS applications in corporate training, the present article synthesis the extant literature on how the effective use of LMS can make the learning process interactive, student centric, catering to the needs of diverse learners in higher education.

Mobile learning and connecting development and trends are widely discussed globally. Literature evidences exist confirming mobile learning and its impact on higher education. Mobile learning opportunities can be one option for higher education institutions to reach a dispersed population of the Maldives. Although readiness of mobile learning has been analysed in several counties and contexts, this contributes as the first research on this subject in the Maldives. Therefore this article is intended to find out students' readiness for mobile learning (mLearning) in the higher education institutes of Maldives. Basic readiness and mobile usage readiness of students from three different higher education institutions contributed to the research. A total of 343 institutional students enrolled in flexible delivery programs responded to the online questionnaire survey. Considering the level of programs, cluster sampling technique was used in shaping the sample of the research. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and SPSS to interpret the findings on student readiness for mobile learning. The findings indicated that the students were confident in using mobile and other mobile devices in daily activities. Also, findings indicated that majority of students were confident with the basic and advanced mobile skills of mobile learning.

The recent adoption of cloud computing, Web 2.0 (web as a platform), and Big Data technologies have become the main driver of the paradigm shift. For higher education, choosing the right platform for a next generation of Learning Management System (LMS) namely LMS 2.0 is becoming more important than choosing a tool in the new paradigm. This chapter discusses factors for higher institution in determining a future direction for its LMS to take advantage of pervasive knowledge management, efficiency and effectiveness of operations. Literature studies have deployed for this study to portray the state of future LMS initiative. We found that the trends of cloud computing and big data will be predominant factor in viewing future LMS adoption and implementation. LMS 2.0 can be a solution to make learning systems in a higher education is flexible in terms of resources adoption, quality of learning, knowledge management, and implementation.
