Mobile learning, a relatively new concept, has gathered momentum and attracted the interest of educators, researchers, and companies developing learning systems and instructional materials. A principal goal of this study was to develop a suitable system for environmental education via mobile technologies. Students sent text messages using the Short Message Service (SMS), and pictures using the Multimedia Messaging Services (MMS) of mobile phones. A web-based environmental education system has been developed by the authors on a University's server, called the New Mobile Technologies and Environmental Education System (NMobTec-EnvEdu). The exploratory study investigated the results of integrating mobile technology with e-learning and traditional classroom environments; specifically, the use mobile telephones, data services (i.e., WAP, SMS, AIMS, e-mail), and messenger. By gathering information and exchanging pictures using mobile telephones, text messaging and transmitting pictures of local environmental blights, students' attitudes improved toward maintaining a clean environment, and they identified ways to prevent pollution.
