  • New mobile technology will work with old tactics:
    -Mobile learning initiatives should lead to changes in the teaching strategies.
    -The teachers should be trained to integrate mobile learning in their instructions.
    – They must learn how to use mobile technologies to change teaching and learning.
    -When mobile learning programs are implemented in small scale overtime.
    -By having a shift in institutional mindsets over mobile phone policies and making students responsible for their behavior.
    Potential:
    – Have ability to enable learners inquire and then reflect, document, communicate what they find. It’s anywhere, anytime learning by choice and defined by interest.
    -The idea of mobile learning touches on just about every subject that any technology addresses: social media, digital citizenship, content-knowledge versus skill-building, Internet filtering and safety laws, teaching techniques, bring-your-own-device policies, school budgets.
    – Students communicate and collaborate with each other and the teacher. They apply facts and information they’ve found to formulate or back up their ideas. They create projects to deepen their understanding, association with, and presentation of ideas.
    -The idea of having these tools is that it augments our skills as teachers. To be able to ask a question of as many students and get response instantaneously just speeds up the learning process, rather than waiting for individual students to respond.”
