Koshman, Sherry (2011): iSchool agenda: mobile context research and teaching. In: Proceedings of the 2011 iConference 2011. pp. 211-216.

The iSchool community has focused on curricular development in information retrieval (IR). This has traditionally centered upon users approaching a system to resolve their information needs. The technology has changed so that not only should students be aware of these theories, but also pay attention to the development of mobile search. Mobile devices are rapidly proliferating and have changed the user's information needs from traditional mediated requests to that of query-based information immediacy heavily influenced by where users are and what they are doing. Handheld information retrieval power draws upon many applications and information sources including those available on the mobile web. This has yielded a unique branch of information behavior where context is paramount in understanding mobile user behavior due to the diversity of user information environments. Context not only represents the mode of use for information retrieval but also impacts the formulation of the user's information need and motivation. The purpose of this paper is to review the literature and analyze four prominent definitions of mobile context. That includes: spatial/location, temporal; social, and access/technical contexts. In order to synthesize the contexts, a new mobile action-based framework and its key component of itinerant intermittency proposed by the author will be explicated. The conclusion discusses a future teaching agenda for the iSchool community to instruct its students in mobile information behavior and context for IR.
