Abstract

Multimedia and mobile learning instructions are two important educational technologies which can be combined to have more effective teaching and learning experience. Regarding the lack of study in this area, the aim of this study is to answer the question as to why mobile multimedia instruction should be used and how it should be designed, especially for engineering education. The reasons for using mobile multimedia learning and instruction for engineering education are: migrating users from desktop to mobile, ubiquitous support, compatibility with net generation learning styles, increasing students’ motivation, supporting situated learning and increasing engineering students’ professional skills. In addition, design-based research method is suggested for developing mobile multimedia learning instructional design for engineering education is proposed and a first version of mobile multimedia instructional design principles by combining and synthesizing existing design principles of mobile and multimedia learning is suggested.
