Abstract
Mobile-based in-class educational approaches should help faculty provide an evidence-driven teaching environment. This chapter is going to discuss the theoretical background for such mobile-based approaches and its need in the classroom to provide both students and faculty with a real-time understanding about learning and to help students engage more into traditional lecturing. Additionally, the chapter is going to discuss the way such mobile-centric interactive systems could facilitate more evidence-driven teaching. Finally, the chapter will discuss issues that need to be considered for such adoption and present an example of mobile-based system to facilitate evidence-based teaching.
