4.5. Describe the learning pathway you chose at the beginning of the

class (1 paragraph, 100-200 words)◦ The learning pathway that i choose at the beginning of the class

was really difficult, because I do not know much about computers. I actually just looked around and tried different things out.

◦ I was actually not successful in getting a broader knowledge of mobile technologies. I did not understand Learning Sage. I was also unfortunate to get a deeper knowledge of mobile technologies like Learning Warrior. I did try out Learning Guild. Im not sure if I used it right and I did not understand what was the point of it.

◦ I did not change my learning pathway, because of not being able to understand the mobile technologies. I do not have access to a good mobile device that I can use at home to learn better.

6.7. Describe how the activities you completed contributed or did not

contribute to your learning pathway (1 paragraph, 100-200 words)◦ The specific activities that helped me get a broader understanding

of how to use a mobile technology to learn were the free apps. They helped because I got to see how I can use them to strengthen my learning process. Such as using flash cards and learning a different language.

game. I like it because I could write my own story and be studying at the same time and it was fun.

8.9. Using one paragraph each, describe the top 3 mobile technologies

you explored for learning (3 paragraphs, 100-150 words each)◦ The name of the technology quest that helped me was the ipod. I

explored it for my own learning by trying out different things like spark notes to read a book. I also used note pads to get a summary of a book. I also tried out portable notes. The mobile technology accommodates one or more of my learning preferences because it was easy for me to learn this way with such a convenient portable device. Such as when I used the portable notes, it was easier than taking notes on my binder and way more organized. The mobile technology accommodate each preference in a way. First as I said before I do not know much about technology so it was hard, because im use to the old fashion way. Which is actually the way I prefer to learn best. I am more of a verbal and visual learner, but I best prefer a being in a class setting then on a screen. It gets very confusing and my eyes start to hurt.

◦◦ The name of the technology quest that helped me was the ipad. I

explored it for my own learning by trying out different things. I am going to install the app Tether, Type fu, and Wiki-bot. There are so many apps to choose from it is a phenomenal change in education. I also want to find an app for presentations. And also on how to learn a different language. The mobile technology accommodates one or more of my learning preferences because it was easy for me to learn this way with such a convenient portable device The mobile technology accommodates each preference in a way that I can leran in a fun way. First as I said before I do not know much about technology so it was hard, because im use to the old fashion way. Which is actually the way I prefer to learn best. However, if I owned an ipad I could see how convenient it’s usage would be.

◦◦◦ The Technology Quest that helped me to learn was the

microblogs. I explored it for my own learning by looking

through my new twitter account and using instagram.◦ The mobile technology accommodates one or more of my

learning preferences Very much. I love instagram I can take pictures and fix it to my liking. I can also see live news events on twitter and its all for free. I was learning about the news on my phone which is very handy.

◦ How does the mobile technology accommodate each preference? I did like to see the live pictures of different stories which my visual learning preference.

10.11. Synthesize your experience investigating your use of different

mobile technologies for learning (2 paragraphs, 100-150 words each)

◦ The mobile technologies that interested me the most as learning tools was instagram and my twitter account. The mobile technologies that surprised me the most as learning tools where all of them, the ipad, ipod, and micro-blogging. The mobile technologies that do not seem to work as learning tools are maybe instagram, because I am just on it for the reinventing of the pictures. The mobile technologies that I want to explore further to improve my learning are the ipad and ipod. I do not own either, but I use to own an ipod and did not know the various ways you can use it for learning.

◦◦ PARAGRAPH: The mobile technologies that worked best for my

learning preferences were the ipad. The ipad address my learning preferences because every thing is at the click of my fingers. I can be any where too, in my car, at the café, at the store waiting in line, etc.. there are a lot of things I can do. I can even learn a new language which is another app I want to purchase. Learning a new language is something ive been dreaming of doing. I would love to learn French. To visually see this was fun to mess with for a little bit. I do not like to be on the any computer like device for too long.

◦12. Describe how you will use what you learned in this class after this

semester (2 paragraphs, 100-150 words)PARAGRAPH: The mobile learning strategies that I will continue using after this class are Visual. In the past I have excelled in courses that provided a lot of visual aid, being able to remember what the teacher said based on what I remember seeing on the power point. I cannot wait to start because they look like different games for playing. These apps are a cool way to learn and to help

you out with homework. My homework is very important to me, and if I can figure out a easier way to learn and have fun that sounds good to me. I can also use them on the go anywhere and at any time of the day.

The mobile technologies that I will continue using for learning after this class is the ipad, well after I purchase one. For the class my friend let me borrow hers so I got to mess around with it and found it useful This mobile technology can be used any where at school or at work wherever you want. I can not think of one app I will use for non-learning purposes Maybe to be listening to music. But they will all be used by me for learning purposes, that is why I want an ipad so much. However, a downside that I think for me personally is the amount of money each app is or the tablet itself. Yet, I did see many that are for free that I can use and one includes the app for learning A new language.

◦ The mobile technologies that I will you avoid using after this class is none. I want to try them all out when I have free time.
