Smartphone Usage Statistics and Trends 2013 [Infographic] | AnsonAlex - 0 views

  • Mobile and smartphone usage is most prevalent in the morning and evening. Smartphone users tend to glance at and skim over emails more than desktop users who tend to fully read emails. Smartphone users around the world tend to use their smartphones at home more than anywhere else. From October 2010 to October 2012, email open rates on smartphones increased by 300%. Mobile email creates twice as many conversions as social and search. The average price of an order placed from a mobile device is higher than the average order from a tablet or desktop. Mobile and smartphone usage is higher Thursday – Monday than on Tuesday or Wednesday.

    As we use our smartphones more and more, our patterns of email reading and replying change. We could take note of these patterns, especially if doing surveys or email marketing campaigns, for better responses.

E-learning: The future of education? - Education - Mail & Guardian Online - 1 views

  • The recent growth of ebooks and tablet computers, like the iPad, is fuelling the drive towards digital education. For the first time, institutions are thinking of innovative ways to incorporate digital content into learning programs. The potential to reach a global audience is also significant. And online learning need not be static or impersonal: on the contrary, it offers unparalleled opportunities for interactivity and open communication among students and teachers
  • Another attractive feature of online learning is that it is much more accessible than traditional tuition. Since resources can be spread instantly and for free to anyone in the world, learning is immediate, affordable and rewarding. It does not attract the hidden costs of contact based learning, like transport, material and stationery costs, which makes it valuable for less-privileged students. It also allows working people to gain valuable education in the time available to them, so that they can increase their skills and improve their working lives.
  • Many universities are now posting video lectures, reading materials and other resources for free online. The range of materials covers everything from introductory videos and podcasts to advanced textbooks and detailed research -- a true multimedia experience.

  • Gates says that it's not enough just to have good content: it needs to be organised in a useful way and backed up with a solid teaching support network. It is difficult to test knowledge or prove capabilities without structured academic programs. But this is where the internet can truly shine: an online course is not hampered by physical constraints or the high costs of full-time, contact-based learning. One teacher can easily oversee and support many students from anywhere in the world, and learning can be done at the student's pace, with access to a wider range of materials, discussions and resources than would be possible in a traditional physical learning environment.

Spotlight on Mobile Gaming Part 1 of 2: The Rise of Mobile Gaming - 0 views

  • But why exactly have these kinds of games taken off in recent years? The answer to this question lies in the overall technological trend of making devices that are a “one stop shop” for people. Electronic devices have been increasing in functionality for years, but the introduction of devices like Smart phones and tablets are fantastic examples of this catch-all product that has increased in popularity recently.

Hybrid mobile apps take off as HTML5 vs. native debate continues | VentureBeat - 1 views

  • A hybrid app is a native, downloadable app, that runs all or some of its user interface in an embedded browser component. To the user, a hybrid app is almost indistinguishable from a native one: it is downloaded from the app store or marketplace, it is stored on the device, and it is launched just like any other app
  • simply load some pages from their web site as part of the app
  • many companies are not already jumping on the HTML5 bandwagon is the belief that HTML apps cannot access native device features. Indeed, pure mobile web apps
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • hybrid apps, frameworks such as the open source PhoneGap library make it possible for JavaScript code to query the compass, take pictures, find or create contacts and appointments, and tap many other device features that mobile web apps are barred from accessing
  • Access to device features is not the only difference between hybrid apps and mobile web apps. Another important difference is that hybrid apps are mostly distributed through app stores: You don’t browse to a hybrid app
  • the leading smartphones and tablets have very powerful HTML rendering engines, which already support most of the upcoming HTML5 and CSS3 standards
  • Other organizations are developing hybrid apps, while planning to turn them into HTML5 web apps in the future without having to rewrite them from scratch
  • From a strategic point of view, development organizations should seriously consider adopting HTML for mobile app development sooner rather than later. The hybrid app model, although not suitable for all app development needs, provides a cost-effective solution for a very wide range of downloadable app types and allows gradual entry into the new world of HTML5 while future-proofing your investment.
  •  
    this article talks about the future of mobile app development... hybrid app which combines web technology with native devices supports ( camera, microphone, address book etc) Does make sense as it is cost effective not to rewrite the coding for each and every devices and also taking into consideration the time taken for constant content changes in educational environment here. maybe we should look into ths.
