• Cell Phones in Education Part 1: Productivity
  
  Paper agendas are static devices that don’t actively work with individuals to remember to get things done.  If adults in the workplace use devices for calculations and we are preparing students for life in the real world as an adult, why do we push older stdents to work without those tools that can help them succeed? While on any sort of excursion, students can record their observation right from a device that they carry with them and easily collect those As I stated in an earlier blog post , I an beginning a new series on using cell phones in learning to go along side my iPods in Education series.

• The Powerful Combination of Mobile Devices and Learning Apps
  
  In discussing the use of mobile devices, it is easy to forget that the educational and productive power of mobile devices comes through the integration of the devices with other tools. The mobile device, after all, is a hardware tool that makes certain tasks possible but the actualization of those tasks ultimately depends on the use of software or web tools. Let’s take a look at some ways the hardware and software, including web software and apps, can come together to actualize learning outcomes. I

  Since the beginning of last year a Tibotec mobile project has been running. The complete overview of the mobile learning project was given by my wonderful colleague Carlos, you can look at the presentation here if you like.

• Cell Phones in Education Part 4: Learning on Location
  
  This is where the mobile phone comes into play. GPS locators found in many of today’s mobile phones allow students to explore their surroundings while also applying mapping skills. More and more Augmented Reality apps such as Wikitude connect GPS enabled and internet abled devices to Wikipedia so students can read up on the significance of a certain area, monument or exhibit while they are on location. Disclaimer : While this post presumes the use of a smart phone, and while it is true that not all students own a smart phone, with the current shift toward smart phones, soon, smart phones will be as prevalent as cell phones are today.

• E-learning in the Mobile World and the Right Business Model to Deliver It
  
  I think it is safe to say that for most of us the personal computer is the first place we go when we are looking for web-based information; however, new web-ready mobile devices are emerging with increased speed and are blurring the line of what traditionally constitutes a viable endpoint for digital content. As the computing power of mobile devices improves and they become more affordable, the demand for content that works well on these platforms continues to grow.  Have you seen the new Verizon netbook ?
