Mobile learning: connecting formal and informal learning
0 likes326 views
This document discusses mobile learning and its impact on education. It describes how mobile learning enables continuous, lifelong learning that removes boundaries. It allows learning to become contextualized and learner-centered. Mobile learning transforms traditional education by advancing customized, personalized learning and shifting teachers' and learners' roles. It also reimagines learners as "transmedial" and "always on" who generate data to augment their cognition. Mobile devices have become essential tools for learning, along with food and shelter. The document examines mobile learning from pedagogical, policy, technology, and research perspectives and how it can enable and support flexible learning.
