Abstract
This chapter analyses contextual parameters for designing mobile information visualization for stimulating reflection on learning actions. We discuss the transformation process from a desktop centered web-application into a mobile web-information system. Such transformations are always required whenever desktop applications do not meet the fundamental requirements of mobile or – more precisely – hand-held technologies.
