Definitions of mobile learning?
“A society which is mobile, which is full of channels for the distribution of a change occurring
anywhere, must see to it that its members are educated to personal initiative and adaptability. Otherwise, they will be overwhelmed by the changes in which they are
caught and whose significance or connections they do not
perceive.”

Definitions of mobile learning?
"Early definitions... which focused predominantly on the attributes of mobile
technology, have given way to more sophisticated conceptualisations suggesting that mobility is the central
issue (Winters, 2006). This denotes not just physical mobility but... having access to people and digital
learning resources, regardless of place and time."
Agnes Kukulska-Hulme (2010)

Definitions of mobile learning?
Winters (2006) - dominant perspectives:
1. Technocentric2. Relationship to e-learning3. Augmenting formal education4. Learner-centred

Definitions of mobile learning?
"The exploitation of ubiquitous handheld technologies, together with
wireless and mobile phone networks, to facilitate, support, enhance and extend the
reach of teaching and learning."

Definitions of mobile learning?
So...
Mobile learning is about:
adaptability (context)access (resources)extension (reach)
*not* just about these!

What is your institution doing with mobile?CC BY Johan Larsson

How could institutions approach mobile?
"Students respond to requests to shut off their phones with a sense of panic,
a feeling that they will be cut off from their world of personal relationships. This feeling, taken to its extreme, has been dubbed "nomophobia," the fear of being forced
to shut off a phone, or the obsessive worry of losing a phone. There is even a support Web site for
nomophobics." (Woodill 2011, p.150)

How could institutions approach mobile?
"Relationships between tutors, learners and IT staff need to be further developed so that
productive debates can be had over issues such as security, curriculum planning and delivery, resource development, establishing authenticity of work and
fitness for purpose of IT infrastructure." (MoLeNET, 2010 p.8)

How could institutions approach mobile?
"The main barriers to developing these new modes of mobile learning are not
technical but social. We have little understanding of context and learning outside the classroom, and even less about how this can be supported
through new mobile technologies." (Sharples 2010, p.4)
