Teaching & Learning:
What, Why
& How
What is mobile learning?
Mobile Teaching vs. Mobile Learning• Higher education historically has focused on instructors
teaching rather than students learning, an ineffective approach that could seriously hamper the promise of mobile learning.
• Successful student learning emerges from active engagement, connection to the students' prior knowledge, and simulation of real world experiences — all facilitated by engaging learners' senses through multimedia.
• Higher education should stop thinking about these powerful mobile multimedia devices as only consumption devices — to live up to the promise of mobile learning, students should use them as production devices.
“Individuals have had access to ‘portable learning devices’ since the advent of the printing press; we call them books.”
Why mobile learning?
“Given students’ ownership of and preference for small, mobile devices, institutions and instructors may have an opportunity to make more effective use of mobile technologies to communicate with, educate, and support students. Many students seem eager to communicate more with their instructors online, to use their mobile devices for coursework, and to reach out for help when they need it.”ECAR 2011, page. 30
Students• are unconfident that they
have the technology skills to meet their needs.
• want/need for instructors to model incorporating technology into teaching, learning, and research.

How will we support it?CIOs & InstitutionsAlthough…“In general, IT organizations believe they are reasonably well prepared to meet the expected demands for mobile computing across the four areas of general communication, instruction, administration, and research.” • More than 1/3, no spending on mobile-enablement • Varied staffing levels dedicated to mobile• 40% did not mobile-enable any service• More services geared towards students
