Abstract: The number of ethnic teenagers with unplanned pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases has been increasing. A few can access non-formal education and learn sexual health literacy under limited learning conditions. This study aims to address these issues by proposing a mobile adaptive learning approach focusing on ethnic context. In contrast, a personalised adaptive agent with an integrated anonymous mechanism and inquiry-based interactive lessons have been designed. To investigate the effects of the proposed approach, a mobile web-based learning system on non-formal education's sexual health literacy has been developed. Quasi-experimental research has been conducted with ethnic learners in Thailand. The findings reveal that the proposed learning approach can help improve their learning performances on sexual health literacy and gain positive learning perceptions. The significance of this study plays a vital role in understanding how to enhance sexual health literacy effectively and demonstrating better interactive lessons for the context-focused group.
