Mobile Learning
Mobile Learning – Finally a Reality
Mobile learning means different things to different people, but:Mobile learning is NOT just eLearning
on smartphones or tabletsWorkforces are now mobile & remote Internet connectivity should
not be taken for granted
There is no single solution for everyone!
Ambient Insight reports that the “market creation”
phase of mobile learning is over and demand is now
mainstream
According to IDC, 37,2% of the world’s
workforce will be mobileby 2015
Mobile Learning Involves …
Expecting personalised access
To context- & location-aware content
With connectivity completely abstracted
Enabling communication & collaboration
An increasingly mobile workforce
But… A Few Reality Checks
Mobile Learning means a lot of different things to different people, but:mLearning is not just eLearning on smartphones or tabletsOffline players or mobile delivery platforms are only point solutions
Organisations think evolution, not revolution
There is no single solution for all… even within the same organisation
New Market Trends Affect Mobile Learning
Mobile devices are now readily available in the corporate world and tablets present the next new frontier
Organisations now understand they need “Learning Environments” that foster learning anywhere & anytime
Learners now expect more personalised, on-demand, collaborative learning experience wherever they are

However… The Disclaimer
12 months from now Mobile Learning will look completely different
Technology and Use Cases are evolving at a rapid pace
Technology Company road maps have changed from 12 to 6 months. Innovation is rapid on Mobile.
Tin Can (xAPI) is a solution to problem we never knew we had, much like the iPad. The ways we use it are evolving month by month and it is changing the way everyone looks at Learning Experiences. 12 months from now this presentation will probably be obsolete.
