Abstract

Ubiquitous learning (U-Learning) has an increasing trend as the coming forth of more new media and instructional ideas. U-Learning focuses on the combination of learning environment and substance space, emphasizing the learning can be happen as seeing, hearing, reading, or apperceiving whenever the learner wanted. Hybrid learning, sometimes called “blended learning”, emphasizes to maximize student’s learning within different learning environments (traditional and digital). It also means that learning requires students to meet for face to face classes while providing much of the learning content and interaction online via delivery software and instructional tools.This paper will discuss concept and characteristics of U-learning and H-learning, the different between the H- and U-learning, and their relationship.
