Review paper is warmly welcome. | MLEARNOPEDIA DELICIOUS MARCH 2, 2009  Ubiquitous Thoughts There is something about the tactile manipulating content on the screen with your fingers as opposed to having to use a mouse, stylus, or other input device (Think manipulating the world in Google Earth on a Smartboard with your hands. students in most mobile projects only have access to a device for a limited period of time, e.g. one year, and often only in school). devices (Tom).

| MLEARNOPEDIA DELICIOUS AUGUST 3, 2009 ACU's iPhone initiative: a year later Implementation We knew the "what" already: ACU handed out 957 devices to incoming freshmen, as well as 169 to faculty and another 182 to staff. Bill explains that a "significant amount of their value has to do with their use as a social device, or as an entertainment device. if my students need this device as part of their social network, then it guarantees that its in the classroom with them." That dynamic is very important in education -- we dont have to teach them about this device, theyre going to learn it on their own. Second, nothing was mandated. Enjoy!

One specific reason for this debate and discussion is that we need much greater clarity about the perceived tension between those e-learning strategies based on near-universal ownership of mobile devices amongst potential learners on the one hand and those e-learning strategies based expensive large-scale installations of static institutional networked desktop computers on the other.

MLEARNOPEDIA DELICIOUS | MONDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2010  Mobile E-learning Publishing: iPad, iPhone, or Kindle – Which do iChoose?
In an insightful post about how the iPad is shifting power to the publisher, the Scholarly Kitchen blog suggests Apple’s main revenue is tied to device sales ; however, my own view is that Apple’s iTunes revenue stream is more raging river than trickling tributary. Case in point: Apple has been generating iTunes profit upwards of several hundred million dollars for some time now ; all the while selling many of their devices at a price just marginally above the cost of production. What did their “stealth” analysis uncover? Is it a game, an e-learning course, a marketing tool? MORE >>
