Abstract: This article explores the design of a seamless learning environment and activities for environmental education using mobile, wireless, and online technologies in Singapore primary schools. The learning environment and activities were designed to help students learn about environmental issues, specifically reduce, reuse and recycle (3Rs), and apply such understanding to practice. By seamless, we mean the transitions between classroom learning and field learning, between handheld use in the field and desktop computing back in the school. The research results indicated improvements in the students' understanding of the 3Rs and internalisation of their understanding through application of the 3Rs concepts.
