Soft skills such as effective communication are becoming increasingly important for engineering graduates. Employers prize excellent written and oral abilities and literacy proficiency. High levels of academic literacy can significantly improve students' success in their university study. Traditional approaches to literacy improvement can limit student engagement. However, mobile learning and the use of smart phone apps present new opportunities to support literacy education. This paper describes current work exploring the use of apps, as serious games, to improve literacy in undergraduate students and outlines initial results from a cross-discipline evaluation of an m-learning literacy app.

With the improvement of people's living standards and the growing cultural needs, people are inclined to go to museums or other places to learn culture and history. Currently, the content display mode of the museum applications is old and the function of the museum applications is very humble. In this paper, we show a mobile museum software based on iOS platform, which implements the information aggregation of exhibition and museum, and achieves the goal of browsing for users. It also has features of navigation and collection. All the software's features can be implemented on smartphones. The test results show that the software has the function of browsing information of exhibition and museum, and the user can easily access information at any time.
