Here on the last day of the year, I offer my predications for the big and shaping trends we’ll see in the enterprise mobile learning space for 2012. So, in no certain order, here are my predictions… 1. Mobile Learning Goes Mainstream. Or perhaps this is more a case of the classic “frog in boiling water” scenario. Access Points Diversify. Summary. | | | | | | | MLEARNING TRENDS JANUARY 2, 2011 Enterprise mLearning Predictions for 2011 Our own development roadmap is expanding with the many possibilities afforded through upcoming advances like geo-location and near field communications (“NFC”) that may help contextualize learning at a specific location, augmented reality delivering just-in-time learning opportunities via interactive overlays, the use of gaming scenarios integrated within a structured mobile learning experience, and tighter integration between learning and a devices universal inbox function. mLearning Engagements Expand. If 2010 was the year of the pilot, then 2011 will be the year of the deployment. | MLEARNING TRENDS DECEMBER 28, 2011 Enterprise Mobile Learning 2011 - Year in Review My predictions about working on near field/NFC and augmented reality/AR functionality certainly got sidetracked for a variety of reasons (lack of devices in the first case and lack of market interest associated with payment in the second) but that didn’t matter and those missions remain on the long-term road map. a.k.a. How On Target Were My 2011 Predictions? On the Target – But Barely. | MLEARNOPEDIA ON BLOGSPOT FEBRUARY 23, 2011 My Reflections on the Mobile World Congress The buzz was about Android, security, services, reliability, mHealth, the Microsoft/Nokia partnership, femtocells, NFC, cloud services, mobile money and global opportunities for mobile. As with most technology conferences 3LAs (three letter acronyms) were everywhere including NFC, GPS, LTE, WAC, LBS, RCS (and definitely app, although not an acronym.) Over my career I have become a technology "conference veteran" beginning with Comdex in the 80’s. This event grew to over 220,000 attendees and over 20,000 vendors. This is the first time that mobile learning has been recognized. | ID.OME.KSU.EDU JANUARY 10, 2010 Instructional Design for Mediated Education | Blog | Location-Based Learning These four basic influences are (1) geospatial technologies (GIS data, GPS chips, RFID chips, Bluetooth, 2D and 3D bar codes, sensors, and NFC / near-field communication (radio frequency technologies); (2) mobile search (visual search and image capture); (3) social networking, and (4) 3G and 4G networking in terms of wireless technologies—which culminate in location-based learning services. One reads of digital installations as parts of student social spaces and libraries. Personally, I am hoping that this year will involve some spatialized augmented-reality projects.
