With the advent of wireless networking at University College Dublin, education through blended learning has been embraced by staff and students alike. Due to the transient nature of students, mobile technologies and wireless local area networks have been employed to facilitate ubiquitous access to resources. This paper assesses the e-learning tools currently available at the university and subsequently evaluates their suitability through qualitative analysis. The results obtained emphasized those issues raised by current undergraduates and solutions were drawn. An intelligent framework of adaptive e-learning facilities is presented that enables students to avail of ubiquitous learning.
