Abstract
The article introduces the theoretical and systematic framework for an independent didactics of mobile learning. The starting point is the mobile phone as a product of a mobility complex that has given rise to new cultural resources in everyday life. The idea of a cultural resource suggests that the everyday mobile phone should also be taken seriously in the school curriculum and integrated into learning processes legitimised by the curriculum. The cornerstones of mobile learning are responsible for the practical implementation in the classroom. These cornerstones operationalise the theoretical approach presented by the London Mobile Learning Group as a cultural ecological approach to mobile learning (Pachler, Bachmair, Cook 2010). Using an example from primary school for first reading and first writing and a mathematics lesson in a sixth grade grammar school, the second part of the paper presents the six cornerstones of a didactics of mobile learning. The third part discusses the technical functions of the mobile phone with the help of six key points on the multimedia functions of the mobile phone.
