    The revolution in mobile devices and wireless networks have transferred E-learning to mobile learning (M-Learning). Delivering learning materials (podcasting) to mobile learners is a challenging task due to the variability of mobile learner contexts.

Two dimensions have been included in context namely: physical space and social space. This has been followed by determining learning preferences to determine how depersonalize mobile learners' podcast usage preferences.
