Abstract
The paper presents and outlines the demonstration of an open source mobile application platform for designing, supporting, and evaluating mobile learning scenarios that make use of media artefacts in a specific context. The platform contains a web-based authoring environment, cross-platform mobile applications to run the scenarios, as well as tools to monitor progress and results. Besides exploring the pedagogical background, the paper describes the conceptual implementation as well as the technical infrastructure and lists the requirements for demonstrating the platform and all its components.
