      The one doing the work is the one doing the learning. Simply consuming information is not enough "work" to satisfy the notion of rigorous learning.
  • I'd argue that content delivery isn't even half the picture of teaching and learning.
  • Individuals have had access to "portable learning devices" since the advent of the printing press; we call them books
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • To achieve the promise of mobile learning, we have to stop thinking about these powerful mobile multimedia devices as only consumption devices and get students using them as production devices.
    • Frank Barnes
      Frank Barnes on 13 Jan 13
       
      Addressing more than one of the senses, coupled with response output (the "work" component of learning) makes for a more robust learning experience.
  • Brain researchers have been telling educators for quite a while that engaging multiple senses helps students better learn material. Therefore, the excitement here is not so much about the portability or mobility of these teaching devices; instead, it is that these devices can both convey teaching material in more than two media (text and images) and be portable.

      The 3-D Brain app is one of the first apps I loaded onto my first smartphone and all subsequent devices. It appealed to me at the time (and still does) as moving to a higher level of information accessibility and interaction.
  • it is not enough to just give students PDFs of pages from an anatomy textbook. It's not even enough to allow them to take self-grading quizzes. We need to provide materials or applications that allow students to practice identifying parts of the body on their mobile multimedia devices before taking the high-stakes midterm or final exam.
  • It's one thing to learn about different architectural styles in a Western Civ or Construction textbook or lecture; it's another to apply what you've learned by going out into the community and taking pictures of buildings and then identifying the architectural influences. It's one thing to hear or read about the results of sociology studies about gender bias; it's another to go out, collect primary data, and immediately show, as well as discuss, the dynamically growing study results with the recently queried participant. In both cases the activity of capturing "raw" digital material can lead to further learning or assessment activities where students might develop multimedia projects.
  • access is not an excuse. Just as instructors will need to be creative in developing and assessing these mobile learning activities, instructors and institutions will need to help students be creative in finding access to different mobile multimedia production devices.
  • One of the easiest ways for individual instructors to address the access and support issues is to have students work in groups, share access to resources, and help one another figure out how to do it all. Bonus point: Employers want students who know how to work in groups. Getting students engaged in mobile learning projects might not only better facilitate learning, it might also have them learning about various 21st century literacies like group work, composing in multiple environments, and information literacy.
  • "What makes electronic books a potentially transformative technology is the new kinds of reading experiences that they make possible."

  • Todd Richmond, director of advanced prototype development and transition at the University of Southern California’s Institute for Creative Technologies, said his gut feeling is that what a user gets out of mobile learning depends on the user. “If you have a user that is comfortable with a tablet or a smartphone, they will be more willing to put up with issues and engage with the content,” he said
  • Jan Cannon-Bowers, research director of University of South Florida’s Center for Advanced Medical Learning and Simulation, said the convenience of mobile learning makes it useful for refresher training in rare procedures. For example, she’s working with the military on an app for refresher training for corpsmen.
  • “We do this all the time. It was the same thing with PC-based training and distance learning,” she said. “It was dominated by very, very smart people who are engineers and software designers. They see possibilities — and there are possibilities — but we don’t apply them smartly

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.

IDEA WATCH: Innobrarians--Librarians as Innovators - Internet@Schools Magazine - 1 views

    Librarians have been called by many titles but this article pens a new one to me - innobrarian. It might grow on me, or not. Reflect on the degree to which you and you librarian might be on the same page as change agents in your setting. Here is the direct quote from the article ;Not only can we be innovators ourselves, but in doing so, we can support the dreamers, the players, and the innovators in the building, both students and teachers. We can help them embrace their creative ideas, harness them for the classroom, bring in supporting materials, and provide that open-minded partner that innovators need. Libraries can become the places to "seed" new ideas that can spread throughout our campuses. Our role provides us with tremendous flexibility to self-define what we want to be for our campuses." Note to self - figure our how to link words so that "new technologies" and "change agents" aren't separated. Yay, one task done. Whoops, how to now tag it with Mat622???

    Like Jessica I kept going back to the idea that "it's not about technology, it's about the learning." Yet after much mucking about, I kept coming back to this article which one of you introduced early in the semester. To my "pre-app developer" self, it was a real eye opener and inspiration to imagine all these topics being covered (some better than others) in this visual, graphic mode and living on one device. So in the spirit of inspiration, I offer this article as a favorite.
