Mobile and ubiquitous learning facilitates language learners to continue their learning process outside the formal classroom, when and where they desire. While more and more learning resources are accessible via a mobile device, there is a challenge in providing access to appropriate personalised learning resources. Personalisation and contextualisation are often used as synonyms. In our work, we distinguish between these two concepts and consider personalisation as a part of contextualisation. This paper describes the PALLAS system which enables real life language learning scenarios by providing personalised and contextualised access to learning resources via a mobile device. The dynamic and static parameters for contextualisation and personalisation of language learning resources are discussed.
