IGNATIA WEBS JUNE 12, 2012 Drawing up an #mLearning #strategy in 10 steps Everyone is joining mLearning, but in many cases some of the basic steps are missing.

Here are 10 steps that make up my own mLearning strategy if I want to work on a new project, if you have additions, please add them via comment or social media: The 5 core steps are similar to any TELearning environment 1. What is the goal of the mLearning project? Is it to develop a course? Is it to get knowledge disseminated?
