Abstract

The emerging trends of technology very often have been a driving force for innovation in education. The advent of open education resources, social networking technologies, new pedagogies for online and blended learning, continuous development of ubiquitous computing technologies and its applications have brought about a revolution in the education, especially in learning environments. Although learning outside of the traditional classroom is an innovative teaching approach, the two main problems are the lack of proper learning strategies and the capacity to acquire knowledge on subjects interactively and effectively. This paper introduce interactive u-learning model for student directed learning which has different components, the learning communities, communication tools, knowledge building resource and sharing of learning resources.
