Mobile e-learning promises to get easier as dominKnow Inc. announces the beta version of its iPod touch and iPhone-optimized Touch Learning Center Portal for the dominKnow Learning Content Management System (LCMS). With access to the dominKnow Learning Center through the iPod touch-optimized portal, learners can log in and take full online courses, access reference objects and open documents and web links added as resources to any course. Learners can also access progress reports and their internal dominKnow LCMS e-mail inbox.

dominKnow designed the Touch Learning Center Portal using the iPhone User Interface (iUI), a framework and sample code released by Joe Hewitt, a software engineer and major contributor to the iPhone development community.

dominKnow's Touch Learning Center Portal comes in the wake of an eLearning Guild 360 Degree Report (July 2007) on Mobile Learning in which 66 per cent of 940 e-learning professionals surveyed said they are actively researching mobile learning initiatives. It also reported that, of members who have implemented mobile learning and are able to evaluate Return On Investment, 88 per cent report a positive ROI.

iPod Touch and iPhone users can try this experience for themselves. dominKnow has posted a short sample course online in the Touch Learning Center Portal. To access the portal, go to and create a user account.
