According to the online learning environment, learning activities using mobile technology have emerged as a major concern. The features of mobile technology show potential supporting the emergence of learners' agencies in science education. In this study, 22 research literature on mobile activities in science teaching and learning published in Korea from 2011 to April 2020 were selected. First, the framework of Suarez et al. (2018) was revised and the types of mobile activities were categorized and investigated. Second, the emergence of agencies was examined in the context of science teaching and learning. And also, the relevance of mobile activity types ('Access to content', 'Data collection', 'Peer-to-peer communication', 'Contextual support') to support learners' agency dimension ('goals', 'content', 'action', 'strategy', 'reflection', 'monitoring') was analyzed. The first analysis show that science teaching and learning through mobile activities are changing from traditional to student-centered. Through these activities, students become more involved in learning and get the opportunity to become agents of learning. As a result of the second analysis, it has been confirmed that the emergence of learners' agencies has been supported and strengthened through mobile activities. Whereas, it needs to look upon the relationship between learners' agency and mobile activities in the overall context of science class. This consideration led to implications for the use of mobile technology in future science education and the transition to student-centered education.

With the recent increase in demand for geo-registered imagery, Mobile Mapping Systems(MMS), which can quickly construct geographic information, has become important. The main part of MMS is the high-precision observation system, which collects geographic information at a certain speed. MMS has a complex data generation process and requires a standard-specific vehicle for its use, limiting its application range. In this paper, lightweight MMS is proposed to overcome its complexity by replacing the time synchronizer with a high-speed camera and by stabilizing motion with MEMS IMU/GPS. The proposed low-cost, portable method is expected to produce of geo-registered imagery efficiently.

This study examined factors that prevent older adults from using computers and/or smartphones for their health information search and health management. This study conducted face-to-face survey of a total of 240 older adults aged over 65. Based on the responses of open-ended questions, this study conducted semantic network analysis. The results showed that low level of perceived usefulness(PU) (e.g., information I want to find, detailed information, and trustworthiness) and perceived ease of use(PEOU) (e.g., how to search for information, how to install applications, and visibility) are main factors that prevent older adults from using computers and/or smartphones for their health information search and health management. Furthermore, based on the results of semantic network analysis, further hierarchical regression analysis confirmed that PU and PEOU were positively associated with intention to use mobile application. Thus, the results imply that increasing older adults' PU and PEOU can promote their intention to use mobile application.

As a smart mobile device is gaining popularity as a tool to utilize internet services, the demand on the cloud service (which eliminates the spatial and/or temporal restrictions in enjoying the services) is increasing. This trend also has an effect on the style of performing business tasks so that the concept of 'smart-work' (e.g. doing business tasks in anywhere and anytime) is being spread over the industries. The facilities for the smart-work is, however, focused on providing the tools designed to supporting business tasks such as co-working in writing documents, video conference, searching data via smart (mobile) devices neglecting the industries' needs for the infrastructure by which they can create their own business applications and mobile cloud services at a low (or moderate) price. The paper proposes a mobile cloud service platform, which provides an SDK for developing business applications and offers the applications to smart mobile devices as a PaaS (Platform as a Service).
