What are the obstacles to practical delivery of learning via mobile devices? The practical biggest obstacles tend to be that educators do not know what they can do today with the technology already in the pockets of their students. We find very simple, elegant solutions that are used with the most basic phones in parts of the Emerging World, where for example smartphones are completely beyond the reach of the population, yet learning solutions are successful.

Up to now, most definitions of mobile learning centered on the device; personal digital assistants (PDAs), now morphed into smartphones, were the primary vehicles for delivering mobile learning. This focus was useful because it got us to think about how we could use such small, portable devices, with limited memory and a limited viewing area for learning on the go.

Now, the iPad represents another game change in mLearning. Top Myths & Misconceptions of Mobile Learning by Robert Gadd : L. By Robert Gadd June 9, 2010 “While it is true that mobile is not the ideal delivery medium for every type of training, many organizations can provide measurable proof that properly planned and delivered mobile learning can be just as effective as the available ILT and online learning alternatives.

Mobile learners also benefit from their ability to access content and revisit concepts at the time of need or available schedule.” As mLearning gets more attention, the misunderstandings about it grow.
