Mobile Learning

The flexibility and portability of most mobile technology, including smart-phones, netbooks, iPads, and other tablet-type devices have quickly made them indispensable to people in their daily lives. We check email, read news feeds and browse web sites, or share images and video with handheld computers that are in our pockets and hands all day long. These devices allow us to be connected nearly all the time, from almost anywhere. They offer many opportunities for teaching and learning, as some of the following articles demonstrate.
