  3. What is mlearning? Lack of consensus on how mobile learning should be defined. Definitions range from a focus on the mobility of the technology to the mobility and flexibility afforded to the learner.

  4. It’s learning Jim but not as we know it.. 2011: It is entirely reasonable to talk to your android device to access your social networks ;) 2008 By Geek and Poke (NCC-1701-D) ) [CC-BY-ND-2.0] via geekandpoke.com

  5. A possible definition... • [Learning in future will] be learning transformed by the near-universal capacity to generate, discuss, store, transform, broadcast and consume ideas, information, ideas... In ways not defined, constrained, imagined by institutions. (John Traxler, 2009, quoted in JISC Mobile and wireless technologies review, 2010, p 10)

  6. Why now? • Smartphone sales outstrip PC sales for first time ever (IDC report 7th February 2011). • The mobile year in review, 2010

  7. What some reports are saying... • JISC Mobile and wireless technologies review (2010): students expect “unhampered digital communication with their peers, tutors and administrators” and access to learning resources and information “as and when required”. (Executive Summary: Principle Findings). • UCISA 2010 Survey of Technology Enhanced Learning for higher education in the UK: clear interest in mobile learning across UK Higher Education. • The Horizon Report 2011 predicts that the timescale for major impact on teaching and learning of mobile devices for accessing networked resources to be one year or less. (The Horizon Report 2010 predicted that the timescale for major impact on teaching and learning of mobile computing to be one year or less.)

  16. Case studies and links • JISC Mobile learning projects • JISC mobile and wireless technologies review (scan the QR code opposite to access this on your mobile). • JISC Innovative Practice in eLearning - embedding mobile and wireless technology. (A bit out of date but still provides some useful frameworks).
