One of the key goals in creating a new field of landscape architecture is the construction and upgrading of a new system of engineering education with Chinese characteristics. The landscape architecture practice course is a significant required course that is distinguished by its teaching’s realistic environment and temporal and spatial variability. This study elaborates on the use of mobile information technologies, such as Two-step, an outdoor sports app, Cat’s Eye Quadrant, a survey recording app, and Flower Companion, a plant recognition app, to the teaching of landscape inspection based on the status quo and advances the concept of contextual mobile teaching. The contextual teaching mode, which has three stages, three guarantees, and three goals, aims to accomplish the fundamental educational goal of gaining knowledge in action through outside-of-classroom learning while immersing in the real environment. The results of this study may serve as a guide for the creation of outdoor practice courses in other disciplines as well as serve as inspiration for administrators and practitioners of landscape architecture education who want to support the successful implementation of mobile learning.
