    An exploration of learning using mobile devices would not be complete without reading the most current Horizon Report.  One of my very favorite pull out concepts from the report is something tech integrators say over and over - "Digital literacy is less about tools and more about thinking". The Horizon Reports lays out a good case for mobile tools and personalized learning. A must read.

    An excellent short summary of some of the issues Ed Tech Specialists experience when working / supporting iPads and how to correct them. This article is a great PD piece to share with teachers returning from iPad workshops thinking they are now integrating technology into their classroom. It is a reminder that good class content, lesson planning and intentional tech integration are the keys to success with the iPad (or any mobile device for that matter).

    A quote from the Op Ed, "This platform of instruction has established an environment where students are stimulated through exciting, interactive lessons that motivate creativity and hands-on learning. Within this environment, the iPad has become each student's personal learning device. This personal learning device has made learning more accessible with apps that help students with visual and hearing challenges and different learning styles connect with the world in new ways."

  • In this grand progression, 2013 will certainly be a significant milestone for mobile devices, smartphones and beyond. It's likely to be the first year in which tablets out-ship notebooks in the US. And in the coming years, this will lead to a confluence of high-end tablets and ultra-mobile notebooks as the world figures out how these devices co-exist, blend, hybridize, and/or merge.

    "Video is the way that we, increasingly, communicate stories, news, information and even ideas to one another. It's powerful because it often transcends barriers of language and of culture. It is universal and powerful. It drives everything from politics to religion, and much in between"

13 Predictions (+1 More) for Mobile and Mobile Learning in 2013: Float Mobile Learning - 0 views

  • The year 2013 will see more companies embrace mobile applications, a wider uptake in mobile learning among the general public, and shifts in what kinds of content and how that content will be delivered to mobile devices
  • Quantified self becomes “mainstream,” according to Chad. Nike FuelBand, Jawbone Up and Fitbit Ultra are all out and widely available. They haven’t, however, made into the mainstream consciousness. These cool life trackers are still very much an early-adopter tech-geek toy or novelty. One of these devices will emerge in 2013 as a real winner here. It may be a combination of pricing, integration with devices or software, or perhaps just a really slick marketing campaign, but one of these devices or a new one will become a “must have” accessory for fitness-minded individuals. Some opportunities for partnerships with health care payers or maybe weight loss programs could also help propel this type of personal gamification into the everyday space.

    This article was of interest because most predictions are conjecture - the mobile market is growing no doubt, but how and what consumers are going to do with these devices is of real interest. As the mobile market grows, the personal computer market is shrinking

  • Mobile is no longer a communications utility, but a media distribution hub.
  • The biggest beneficiaries have been mobile apps. Time spent on apps dwarfs time spent on the mobile Web, and smartphone owners now spend 127 minutes per day in mobile apps.

    Hard to believe the average mobile device accounts for nearly 2 hours of user time in mobile apps. Time to think about what these apps are doing for (to) us.

    This article is a call to action for considering the vast resources in iTunes U. There is also a good link to itWeekly which includes podcasts on lesson ideas ranging from geotagging to eportofolios. I've have very little experience exploring and working with iTunes U. I plan to explore further.
