The Mobiles

Mobile learning ishellip

lsquolearning in a more personalised way handing over more control to the learners themselvesrsquo

lsquodisruptive learningrsquo

(Stead 2006)

lsquoholds and heightens student interest engages students in learning and provides yet another

means for expressive and receptive literacyrsquo

(Dogeby 2007)

The Research

lsquoa small cleverly designed handheld game can significantly enhance learner performance in mental maths as well as having a positive impact on other

aspects of classroom lifersquo (Robertson 2009)

lsquomobile devices can have a positive impact on learning experiences for both educators and studentsrsquo

(McFarlane Triggsamp Yee 2008 Ng amp Nicholas 2009)

lsquoSchools with one-to-one computing programs have fewer discipline problems lower dropout rates and higher rates of college attendance than schools with a higher ratio of students to computershellipbut for one-to-one programs to boost student achievement as well they must be properly implementedrsquo
