Videos and images are common used in e-learning and many platform can support them. Contents for m-learning must be designed in order to fulfill QoS itself (speed, process, size, etc). Any suggest or experience about combining contents for e-learning and m-learning?
As long as you are working on a responsive e-Learning platform like Moodle and you have a custom theme enabled, the combination is never an issue. If you aren't working on a responsive architecture then it's going to take a lot of work from your side because mobile view works best with highly optimized media. Thanks to technology, every media editing tool provides ways to optimize any kind of data, and that's helping a lot of educational websites run smoothly. We are using a responsive theme in our institution currently and yes, sometimes the responsiveness might reduce the usability a bit but then it saves us a lot of time optimising stuff for mobile content.
Hope this helps. \m/
Dear Leonard, m-learning may open up new opportunities for teaching and learning in future, as reflected in the information that I enclose. It therefore is important to investigate some of the issues that you raise.

Hi Leonard,
How are you defining the difference between m-Learning and e-Learning? You might also consider a new term in the literature which in a sense does away with the m and the e - namely uLearning where the u stands for ubiquitous and includes anytime, anywhere learning. Cheers, Kevin.
Hello there,
Here you have a couple of interesting experiences:
Gallego, A. H., Legrand, M., Saornil, J. V., Herraez, F., & Mas, P. (2014). THREE EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES COMBINING B-LEARNING AND M-LEARNING: COURSES, SEMINARS AND MASTER CLASSES. EDULEARN14 Proceedings, 6794-6801.

You may also look at this study that combines m-learning and u-learning in social media:
