    Mobile devices are an effective learning and training aid. They are handy and provide anytime, anywhere learning. However, the overall impact and effectiveness of mobile learning depend on multiple factors.

  • The debate over digital learning will soon enter a new phase.  No longer will educators debate whether or not digital learning has the capacity to transform the American education system.   Just about gone are the anti-technology Luddites who insist that every classroom be self-contained, with students and teachers left to their own devices, save for the help of pencils, chalk, blackboards and weighty textbooks stuffed into 10 kilo backpacks.

      I wish I could say I think this vision of education and instruction is a close reality, but I sit in classrooms on a daily basis in which the pen/pencil is ALWAYS the primary tool of the student and use of technology is not part of the vision.

      Great statement!
  • It is becoming increasingly obvious that digital learning systems can be tailored to the specific interests, learning styles, and levels of accomplishment of each student.

  • On the one side will be those who propose that most digital learning in K-12 public education be of the “blended” variety, that is, take place within public school classrooms under the tutelage of a highly qualified teacher.
  • nline” proponents will argue that blended learning alone is not enough.  American education can be transformed only if the power to drive change is placed in the hands of students, who are offered a choice of providers that include not only the blended classroom but also those who offer products  exclusively online, supplementing asymmetric video presentations of online materials with interactive systems that employ such tools as Skype, interactive games, social networking, email communications and phone conversations.

      I guess, I'm one of the proponents that thinks CHOICE is the best option. I don't think school systems have to decide for students but should provide rigorous, well-designed options that students can choose from rather than limit them because of someone else's choice.  How often do students sit in a class because they were assigned to a teacher that they know is  not as good as another teacher in the department? Why not give the students choice of which teacher they get, or what modality they choose to receive the learning through? Make the bottom line be a rigorous set of assessments that provides some understanding of what the student is able to convey.  
  • Common standards provide a nationwide platform upon which next generation curricular materials can be built

      Most important statement of this article so far! Even if the CCS are not perfect they do provide opportunity for innovation and scale that has never been available through the old system of state standards.

      Also, important to note that Bush comes from Florida which has one of the strongest online school programs in the country and has been a leader in the field for a decade or more. 
  • hoice allows students to pick the courses most suited to their needs, abilities, and interests; and accountability ensures that learning is genuine.
  • For blenders, the keys to the intervention’s apparent success include the use of real-time performance information by qualified teachers, not just the videos and problem sets.

      I like Sal Kahn's thoughts, but his pedagogy and approach is severely limited. He is using the discrete set of skills approach to teaching mathematics instead of a comprehensive approach that connects and blends different representations. He does not take into account consistent use of vocabulary across all of his videos, doesn't make connections between different skills/videos when students need to understand direct and subtle connnections, and he uses a limited set of models to develop student conceptual understanding.  Great speaker, great innovator, limited educator. that said, his use of chunks of information would be well to be modeled by many classroom teachers who spend way too much time in front of the class directing students in what they 'need' to know. 
  • Apparent success, it must be said, because the impact of neither the blended nor the online version of the Khan intervention has yet to be documented by a randomized trial
  • Meanwhile, school districts and teacher unions can be expected to fight publicly funded online learning that offers students a choice of taking courses outside their local district school.  If online learning should prove to be more effective than the learning that takes place within classrooms, it would provide a serious challenge to the school district-teacher union duopoly that blended learning does not.

      Important political point! Are teachers, schools, politicians doing what's best for students or what keeps them in power and makes them look good? I don't know, but I am glad to be part of the education process  during this period of education.

    http://inderscience.metapress.com/openurl.asp?genre=article&eissn=1746-7268&volume=1&issue=2&spage=159 The purpose of this study is to identify the benefits that mobile technology can provide in education. From a review of the literature and interviews with individuals in the field of education, we developed an activitybased model to associate the uses of mobile technology with their benefits. The model first identifies the general uses of mobile technology in education and the specific activities that they encompass. Then, the benefits from their uses are identified with overarching themes emerging as follows: greater efficiencies and effectiveness in learning, increased individual support and opportunities for personal development, better methods of collaborating and communicating and greater exposure to technology.

    Joshua A. Danish says it takes a village to effectively integrate new technologies such as the iPad into elementary classrooms. As we reported recently, some school districts are investing in iPad2 touchpad tablets in kindergarten classrooms. In an opinion piece published in the Indianapolis Star, Indiana University assistant professor Joshua A. Danish says that though tablets such as the iPad have potential to be a powerful tool for teaching and learning, educators shouldn't jump the gun.

    DOI: 10.1111/j.1365-2729.2005.00129.x First, we polled 333 Japanese university students regarding their use of mobile devices. One hundred percent reported owning a mobile phone. Ninety-nine percent send e-mail on their mobile phones, exchanging some 200 e-mail messages each week. Sixty-six percent e-mail peers about classes; 44% e-mail for studying. In contrast, only 43% e-mail on PCs, exchanging an average of only two messages per week. Only 20% had used a personal digital assistant. Second, we e-mailed 100-word English vocabulary lessons at timed intervals to the mobile phones of 44 Japanese university students, hoping to promote regular study. Compared with students urged to regularly study identical materials on paper or Web, students receiving mobile e-mail learned more (Ps literal meaning; a video shows the idiomatic meaning. Textual materials include an explanation, script, and quiz. Thirty-one Japanese college sophomores evaluated the site using video-capable mobile phones, finding few technical difficulties, and rating highly its educational effectiveness.
