Learning on a mobile device in everyday settings makes users particularlysusceptible for interruptions. Guidance (memory) cues can be implemented to sup-port users in resuming a learning task after a distraction. These cues can take a widerange of forms and designs and, to work effectively, need to be carefully adapted tothe mobile learning use case. In this work, we present a structured in-depth literaturereview on task resumption support for mobile devices. In particular, we propose adesign space based on 30 carefully chosen publications to highlight well-evaluateddesign ideas as well as currently underrepresented research directions. Furthermore,we evaluate causes of interruptions in the domain of mobile learning and derive de-sign ideas for task resumption support on mobile devices. To this end, we conductedtwo focus groups with HCI experts (N=4) and users of mobile learning applica-tions (N=3). Based on literature review, focus groups, and further related work,we discuss ideas and research gaps for task resumption cues in mobile learning.
