mobile learning mobile mat622 BYOD research

shared by Frank Barnes on 17 Feb 13 - No Cached
  • Here are some of the most exciting findings from the study: "An unexpected number of middle school students (from all ethnicities and incomes) say they are using mobile devices including smartphones and tablets to do their homework. Previous TRU research indicated that middle school students are using smartphones and tablets for communication and entertainment. However, this is the first TRU research that shows that middle school students are also using these mobile devices to complete homework assignments.
  • More than one out of three middle school students report they are using smartphones (39%) and tablets (31%) to do homework. More than 1 in 4 students ( 26 %) are using smartphones for their homework, weekly or more.
  • Where 39% of middle school students use smartphones for homework, only 6% report that they can use the smartphone in classroom for school work. There is also a gap in tablet use. Although 31% of middle school students say they use a tablet for homework, only 18% report using it in the classroom. 66% of students are not allowed to use a tablet for learning purposes in the classroom, and 88% are not allowed to use a phone. Students say using mobile devices like tablets makes them want to learn more.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Despite the high numbers of middle school students using laptops, smartphones and tablets for homework, very few are using these mobile devices in the classroom, particularly tablets and smartphones. A large gap exists between mobile technology use at home and in school.
  • Teacher education and training on the effective integration of mobile technologies into instruction may provide significant benefits for all. Mobile device usage in class appears to have the potential to sustain, if not increase interest in STEM subjects as students progress into high school.

    Research concerning mobile devices in the classroom. Verizon initiated, so caution toward bias.

      This is supported by mobile technology because it gives us tools to record and respond to those ideas when they hit.
  • Imaginations tend to work better when you we are not being forced to think about something specific – so when driving home, in the bath, or perhaps watching TV.

    I feel that these 5 videos directly and indirectly touch upon some of the key themes of trans-formative mobile learning. I especially liked Sugatra Mitra's comment that "it's not about making learning happen, it's about letting it happen" through educational self-organizing. Mobile learning is an arena where teachers have to play the role of facilitator and simply "set a process in motion" and let learning unfold with the use of new tech tools that produce unpredictable outcomes. When learning happens on-the-go, the dividing line between education and everyday life becomes blurred and frequently dissolves away to spark relevant learning.

  • The most important reason for the low uptake of mobile learning, until now, has been the lack of understanding of mobile devices and mobile learning.
  • Today’s mobile devices move beyond merely providing access but to actively helping and supporting us at work and at home. It has also empowered and enabled us to do things that we may never have had the confidence to do in the past. If we stay within the comfort of the “learning box”, we will never fully recognise or realise the true value and potential of adopting “mobile” solutions.

    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."

    I am interested in this app as I suffer from hearing loss, though have not made the leap to hearing aids ... yet. It has mixed reviews. I think it would more feasible with an iPhone than an iPad, something I don't have ... yet!

    Awoke to an NPR interview of a most remarkable woman telling her story of living with Lou Gehrig's disease. With considerable assistance of her husband during this interview, who must translate her strained speech, I learned how she wrote a book using an iPhone (or iPod) with the use of one thumb only. Compelling, inspiring. Grateful for my life and limbs today, going out for an invigorating ski and thinking of her.  Apologies to Frank, an English teacher, for the disjointed sentence starting with "with considerable assistance....., needs editing.
