چکیده

Evolving of information and communication based distance education system is began with learning management system (LMS). This type of distance education can be called as asynchronous model. Then, web conferencing software is added to the LMS, so synchronous model is obtained. After that, distance education is evolving from static to adaptive system. This adaptive system should be taken into account according to the students' needs, preference, abilities and background. This can be accomplished with students' profile and data. As in all fields, there is a transition to mobile environment. Distance education transforms from traditional to intelligent based mobile structure. In this model, students can access distance education facilities at any time, any place, and any way. The intelligent in other words adaptive mobile education model is able to support and meet the different individuals’ needs. It provides effective learning environment with variety of services. With this way, performance and effectiveness of educational process can be developed. The overall purpose of adaptive mobile education is to provide better understanding and improve learning capacity. These can be accomplished by adaptive learning content creation, adaptive evaluation of students’ success rate and knowledge, and adaptive integration of synchronous distance education system. It also provides personalization for students and facilitates the effective use of mobile education. In these processes, artificial neural network, fuzzy logic, support vector machine algorithms and statistical methods are used. Evaluation of innovative studies related this issue will provide roadmap for researchers. In this study, it is deal with the evolution of distance education from asynchronous model to adaptive mobile model and prominent studies in literature related to the mobile education are summarized. In addition, current status, advantages and disadvantages of mobile education are also evaluated. At the end of the study, it is given some suggestions about future adaptive
