Abstract

Together with an explosive growth of the mobile application and emerging of cloud computing concept, this paper proposes a mobile learning framework for maternal health. The framework integrates governments, kindergartens, schools, hospital sand users into a learning ecology, which can create better learning environment for pregnant women. Most importantly, this paper help readers have an overview of the framework including the definition, architecture, and terminal design. The service structure, function module, and execution flow are presented. In addition, the limitation and the future research directions of the framework are discussed.
