M. Tech. Business Information Systems Tshwane University of Technology 2012. / The challenge of providing ubiquitous personalized learning support, sensitive to the learner's background is still prevalent in South African higher education environments. Thus the research argument driving this dissertation is that learning resources and support sensitive to the learner's context should follow the learners, regardless of location and time. In this context, resources include knowledgeable peers who could provide on-demand academic support regardless of time and space. In the study, a learning management system was suggested as a learning environment that could leverage the challenge of providing ubiquitous learning support. The purpose of the research was to understand learning activities and how ubiquitous learning can be supported using learning management systems, in a higher education environment. Subsequently, the goal of the study was to conceptualize a framework for ubiquitous learning support through learning management systems.
