Mobile learning

Mobile learning

Typically, m-learning is identified both by being available ?anywhere, anytime? (Geddes, 2004) and by the tools used: mobile learning can perhaps be defined as ?any educational provision where the sole or dominant technologies are handheld or palmtop devices? (Traxler, 2005), although in reality it is more usually confined to being one aspect of the provision. For our purposes, then, ?mobile learning? refers to learning mediated via handheld devices and potentially available anytime, anywhere. Such learning may be formal or informal.? (p.273)

What are the advantages and disadvantages of mobile devices for language learning? How might they be used, either as supplements to classwork, or in class? What is better done with mobile devices and what with desktops? What evidence is there of the way different kinds of mobile technology can be used, of the different kinds of activity that can usefully be carried out with mobile computers, and of practical issues that may need to be tackled?
