mobile learning technology is there to stay.

It’s a tool and we have to make to most of it.

we have to let students create and explore.

Collaboration leads to facilitative learning. This allows students to become creative and induce their own learning.

- It's extremely convenient- there is no time constraint or location constraint. As long as there's internet, they can learn! This allows people who have children to have a flexible schedule! Technology is so important in society, so why not use it for educational purposes!

How might m-learning reduce barriers to education:

-       If a student is sick they can still learn at home because the learning is following the student.

-       Students all over the world can access information and educational sources and texts that they otherwise would not have been able to.

-       Tools to create- they can build apps and learn how to be innovative thinkers, really start to get into inquiry learning in a student-centered environment rather than strictly a teacher-centered learning.

Allows students to learn in the way that is right for them. Creates flexible students with growth-mindsets.
Encourages students to explore their own interests.
Learn multiple different things at once (i.e. creating an app about biology).

One of the problems with the emergence of technology in education is equal access. The access to technology creates a social gap between those who can and those who cannot afford it. If we work to have equal access for all, it will be revolutionary for students everywhere.

Access to all students. Can learn when and where they want to.

Example: E-Books

Students are agents in their learning and can create new things that they are excited about.

# data[].attributes.body
As long as there is access to these mobile devices than other resources can become much more acceptable. The TedX video discusses e-books for all students when before there were only two paper copies. Paper copies also wear out and can go missing which are not risk factors with e-books. Information is also readily available. The internet is full of information. Teachers can help students explore answers to questions they don't know the answer too. This progresses students independent researching skills which will be very helpful in life after formal education.

Online platforms can be accessed merely anywhere given internet connection. Making it readily available to students. Despite this, the barriers I see with it are cost, stable internet connection and battery life.

Ubuntu

I am me because of you

The M Ubuntu project used E books and study guides from teachers around the world through introducing technology in South Africa. It used software to engage students and facilitate learning. In the video, the speaker went onto explaining how students built an app to test skills of another student’s skills (Testing their friends and collaborating)

We can use it as a tool to engage students in topics that are relevant to them. It is a tool that is meant to be explored. As teachers we can allow students to use it as different ways of expressing their learning by creation rather than regurgitation.

Allows students access to education and learning from anywhere and in an immediate fashion (synchronous versus asynchronous).
It also comes at a cheaper price than say laptops or PCs, making learning more affordable.

Mobile learning reduces barriers to education by making learning more accessible. Students have the ability to access literature online rather than be limited by the number of books in a class.

Accessible; literally from anywhere in the world with a reliable internet connection. At my own pace, and interactive to mimic the classroom.

Technology also allows for recording of sessions (such as with Adobe Connect) to ensure we don't miss out on important information if we leave the session for a few minutes.
