  • 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.

    I am a proponent of pushing the envelop in education and the idea of MOOCs as conceived of by George Seimens and Stephen Downs. And still we need to talk about the disasters and learn from them. Whenever we try a new recipe, there is always a chance that we won't be eating in that night.

  • "This is my eleven year-old," he said, "who, on one machine, is playing Minecraft and, on the other machine, is watching videos on how to play Minecraft." This is how our students are learning. They are teaching each other and they are learning from the Web.
  • Casap pulled his own phone from his pocket. "What you have in your hand is going to be their Commodore 64. It's going to be their Apple IIe. When they're in their twenties, it's going to be the thing they buy at a thrift store and put on a shelf in their hipster apartment just because it's cool to have one." That's the generation, he said, that's coming into our schools, and we need to be ready for that.
  • "Learning doesn't happen Monday through Friday, from this time to that time," he said. "This generation of kids are growing up consistently learning all the time."

      This is a handy feature. Being able to aggregate notes is a step up from just leaving them on the page where they were made. The video and article mentioned publishing for free. I presume they are referring to iPublisher (iBooks Author). What they don't mention is that each book stays with the account owner, meaning that in a school setting the book belongs to the student. Sounds good, but when the student finishes the class, he still owns the book and the school can't use it for the next student coming in. Gives the book a very short usable shelf-life.

Is It Really Hip to Flip? -- THE Journal - 0 views

      We need to better define what "flipping" means. We can't simply have students view video lectures to discuss later in class. This is merely substitution for discussing the previous night's reading. Reuben Puentadura's SAMR model lists substitution as only the first step in the paradigm shift we face. There are many other things that could be included with the video lesson and augmented by mobile technology that would make learning more interesting, effective, and sustaining.
  • Any technology implementation proceeds in stages. If video use is included in lesson plans, then decide if it is more appropriate to use video that is self-produced or developed by others. The decision might be influenced by your content expertise and production skills. In either case, multimedia principles for learning should be considered, including accessibility of the video content by all.

      This is where mobile technology can be helpful. Kids could view videos anywhere on an iPad, smartphone, or other device, including on a bus going home or to an athletic event. Moreover, they could text friends or the teacher to ask questions or collaborate.
