Instead of a compass telling you exactly which direction to go, it acts as a facilitator, allowing you to work out your own route - and discover new things along the way. This can serve as a metaphor for our 21st-century style of facilitated and directed e-learning. How can we use and even reverse the default affordances of a mobile phone to enhance exploratory and creative learning? Based on the above reflection, here's one random idea for stimulating creative learning using mobile apps: - Language: As you walk along a path, the phone automatically generates a "cloud" of words extracted from geolocated tweets associated with the location that you are currently on, and invites you to contribute your own tweets about your own location.

nyone will be able to create and deploy mobile learning content with our easy-to-use mLearning Studio; choose templates, add text, images, audio, video and quizzes, then publish. The content is delivered in a fully HTML5 compatible mobile course player with cross-platform support for iPhone, iPad, and Android (2.2 and higher); support for Blackberry coming soon.

Announcing the first tool to deploy your rapid e-learning content in HTML5 format as well as Flash. 

For IDs and other CeLebs who want to read about e-learning and instructional design, here's a bunch of free e-books.

A series of Microsoft Research articles on the latest e-learning technologies and strategies. The concepts are seriously exciting! Could CeL consider take a look into these possible areas of research next time?

A great resource that could be used for customized e-learning tours... wonder how this can be used to enhance learning and understanding?

An example of how students can be empowered to not just consume, but to also create e-learning programs for their peers. Perhaps we can use this as an illustration of a unique learning/visualization affordance made possible by technology. Incidentally I think they have the best "Please wait" message ever for a program: "Please be patient while this page loads -- it takes several minutes. But it does include, after all, the entire universe." :)

Perhaps we can use this matrix for our workshops as well.

Nice find! I particularly like the concept items on the x-axis and they could be used for evaluating e-learning. The vertical concepts are a bit dated.

Found this resource when looking for a mobile theme for e-fiesta 2012. There are some promising sections on addressing conflicts between informal and formal learning as well as methods for evaluating mobile learning.

I just happened to think: Imagine if this pattern-recognition tech concept could be adapted to mobile phones in the near future, it might make for a very powerful blended learning / augmented reality tool. :) According to the researcher, implementation for mobile devices is feasible. Possible applications for m-learning could be: gestural recognition, dynamic object association and the like. E.g. If we could use an iPhone/Kinect to track a student's movements and remotely control an external apparatus halfway across the globe (maybe explore an Amazonian jungle to study biodiversity first-hand), or help disabled students (maybe cerebral palsy sufferers) communicate their thoughts more clearly... or perhaps get the students to "air-sketch" Chinese/Tamil characters to produce music on the go...

Oh yes, did I mention Predator is open source too? http://goo.gl/Kj95y

A powerful example of direct manipulation in user interfaces using the now-standard affordances of swipe, pinch and push. What are some ways we can enhance our future e-learning apps to reduce the adoption barrier among potential e-learners?

The website for e-Fiesta2012 Mobilise : learning on the go if needed is here. please help to advertise. The website was created using responsive web theory practice This is one of the latest practice in web technology. It will response accordingly by detecting your devices, dimensions and orientation whether portrait or landscape,and determine the necessary information and interaction to be shown to the user. :) Take away multiple mobile sites, no more tedious updates! Design with cross-platform with users in mind ! mobilise now!

Good example for our virtual world. Azhar, youfang and tini.. please watch the video.
