Summary/Abstract: Living in an age of information and technology in which time is of the essence, people try to use their available resources and time as efficiently as possible. Because traditional methods of training and educating students have become obsolete, there is a need for new ways to approach and interactive training in the e-Learning system where these stand out as key factors in the society of tomorrow. This paper will also tackle the advantages and disadvantages of this mobile technology which requires a remote learning system. The purpose is to create flexible teaching solutions, which will allow access to information via all kinds of devices, as well as to produce flexible materials in a wide variety of situations. Furthermore, this paper will try to approach the answer to the question: how can we learn effectively? And how can we address the issue of limited availability of time using mobile technology? It is becoming more and more clear that mobile learning is not only just a fad, but is becoming an important part of individual development, regardless of age, gender, nationality, cultural background or social status. It is also desirable that future learning should work together with traditional learning, with m-learning and e-learning. In conclusion, the quality of educational system will increase, leading to the development of a new society based on a new core concept which will lead to an increasingly modern education.
