It helps students communicate without needing to be in a certain location at a certain time. However it also creates "distance " that may not be good either. Teachers can also collaborate with their students...and there's so much more tools to use through m learning

Mobile learning reduces the barriers to education by making the information accessible (mobile) and truly relevant (ex self paced) to all students.

Mobile learning reduces barriers to education as it provides students with the opportunity to learn anywhere at anytime.

It is a tool for teachers to improve their craft in ways that are collaborative and easily accessible. I believe it reduces barriers as there are many forms of information that can reach people in a variety of ways instead of just written text.

M-Learning is a powerful learning tool that is under used in schools. I believe that it can be used to help facilitate higher order thinking. Also, it is a great way to teach presentation skills.

Also, it can help reduce barriers by giving students more tools to choose from. As an example, a student may decide to do an assignment by live tweeting, or creating a video of an activity that is happening outdoors.

mobile learning is the future and it is important to make sure we can include this in our lessons. in my last placement i tried to use technology as often as i could so students could learn as much as possible

Teacher as the collaborator, breaking the mould of provider of knowledge and skills.  Students and teachers learning together to improve the process of using technology as a tool.  Much like the design process, create, implement, test, re-evaluate, test again until the end product is what is desired.

I think it can reduce barriers, but I do also think it can create them. As great as it is to use technology, you still need to make sure all students have access to the materials. So, if you are doing an assignment that requires a smart phone and one student/family does not have one for whatever reason, you either have to adapt it to avoid the use of the smartphone or provide a smartphone to that student. Tech does cost money and it is a great tool when all students have access to it, but can create a divide when some students don't. (e.g. WiFi - a smartphone is not as useful without internet access).

I also think we need to be wary of boundaries... it is not healthy to be on tech 24/7 and while it is great that student are ABLE to take their learning home if they choose, we need to be cautious of assigning too much outside of school hours.

Mobile phones have changed how, where, and when we communicate. Now they have moved on to changing where, when, and how we learn. The teacher is becoming the collaborator. "M Ubuntu"

"How can m-learning decrease barriers to learning?"

First, identify what are some barriers to learning. i.e. physical resources, content knowledge, physical space and safe space, access to "teachers".

Second, identify, what is m-learning? i.e. any information acquired, skills enhanced or contributions and revelations made to a subject.

Third, answer the initial question. A mobile learning environment has an assumption that technology will be used - some form of it. With that assumption, then I can answer the question that access to a form of technology in and of itself is a barrier lifted as the use of a tech tool will already increase one's learning about the tool, language, and function of the tool. If there are features to create and contribute online then one also has access to information about a subject but can also reflect and share about their own learning and revelations. In areas in which physical spaces are limited, or teachers unable to access books or  information - wifi now allows students to speak with, download, read, watch etc. to get a broader picture about whatever it is they would want to learn.

its the swiss army knife of technology - access to technology 24/7 opens up new possibilities to learning that could not take place if access is restricted as he said to "20 min a week" with the computers in the school

It can reduce the barriers because you are allowing students to access information on their phones if it be in the classroom or outside of the classroom. You are going towards the model of an inclusive classroom with no borders

Mobile Learning reduces barriers of learning by giving access to all students despite where they are physically sitting in the class.
There are often iPads and/or laptops that are shared amongst classrooms. Having a mobile phone is less expensive than a laptop or an iPad which means that more students can access it.
