Sažetak
Faced with challenges resulting from the rising demand for knowledge and skills in the labour market, the educational system is constantly lagging behind these requirements in terms of developing the curricula, teaching methods and materials that should ensure the competitiveness of future professionals. Education at all levels is facing reforms aimed at identifying and defining specific as well as general competences through a dialogue between education stakeholders and employers. All these efforts are carried out in order to increase the mobility and competitiveness of young people in the labour market, as well as to promote lifelong learning that has become a vital factor in the development of the new age economy. In an effort to attune to the constant changes, one must also take into account the learning methods that better fit the profile of students who are largely affected by the omnipresent communication technologies. Mobile devices can facilitate learning in a way that is better adapted to the technological environment and lifestyle of users. The aim of this paper is to present the results of research carried out in three project partner countries and identify the parameters as well as recommendations for the development of an m-learning application for secondary vocational school students. The research was conducted in the framework of the MASTERS project co-financed by the ERASMUS + programme, which was developed to improve education standard across the European Union.
