12 Principles Of Mobile Learning

12 Principles Of Mobile Learning by Terry Heick Ed note: This post has been updated and republished from a 2012 post Mobile Learning is about self-actuated personalization. As learning practices and technology tools change, mobile learning itself will continue to evolve. For 2016, the focus is on a variety of challenges, from how learners access content to how the idea of a “curriculum” is defined. It is only within these communities that the native context of each learner can be fully understood. 1. A mobile learning environment is about access to content, peers, experts, portfolio artifacts, credible sources, and previous thinking on relevant topics. 2. As mobile learning is a blend of the digital and physical, diverse metrics (i.e., measures) of understanding and “performance of knowledge” will be available. 3. The cloud is the enabler of “smart” mobility. 4. Transparency is the natural byproduct of connectivity, mobility, and collaboration. 5. 6. 7. 8. With mobility comes diversity. 9.

Lighting Setups From Scott Kelby's Light It, Shoot It, Retouch It Seminar Scott Kelby is on tour with his Light It, Shoot It, Retouch It seminar. I was able to attend a hands-on workshop, and then hit the seminar the following Friday when it came to Orlando. He mentioned to me before the seminar that it was going to be a lot of deja vu for me, and he was right. However, it was still very informative to see it the second time around because my head was in a bit of a different place for a seminar vs. a hands-on workshop. Have you ever gone through some training and got home, only to discover there was something you didn’t quite catch?

Freedom on the Net 2012 This report is the third in a series of comprehensive studies of internet freedom around the globe and covers developments in 47 countries that occurred between January 2011 and May 2012. Over 50 researchers, nearly all based in the countries they analyzed, contributed to the project by researching laws and practices relevant to the internet, testing the accessibility of select websites, and interviewing a wide range of sources. This year's findings indicate that restrictions on internet freedom in many countries have continued to grow, though the methods of control are slowly evolving, becoming more sophisticated and less visible. Brutal attacks against bloggers, politically motivated surveillance, proactive manipulation of web content, and restrictive laws regulating speech online are among the diverse threats to internet freedom emerging over the past two years.

Microlearning: Strategy, Examples & Applications Think about where you get most of your facts and food for thought nowadays. More likely than not, it’s not from the latest novel you’re reading, or long form article you’ve read, but something short and snappy you saw on your Facebook feed, Tumblr, or other social media channel. This is microlearning (and yes it means that the information you read on Twitter can be considered learning!) – bites of information – but we’ll explain more in a moment. You’re here because you care about learning, especially as it relates to the professional realm.

The Model>Principles of Learning: Summary The latest gains in the field of brain research cast a new light upon the learning process, which impacts curriculum design, teacher preparation, and classroom practices (Bransford, Brown, & Cocking, 1999). The model we have developed to illustrate the Principles of Learning, which we consider to have a significant influence upon knowledge acquisition, skill enhancement and competence development when applied to both classroom settings and communities, has evolved from developments in the study of learning. Knowing how humans learn has helped us design the model we propose, which demonstrates the practical applications of research into educational settings.

Mobile Learning Mobile Learning ©UNESCO/NOKIA | ©UNESCO/Pakistan project Today over 6 billion people have access to a connected mobile device and for every one person who accesses the internet from a computer two do so from a mobile device.

6 things to consider when creating tablet compatible courses - eFront Blog One of the greatest advantages of e-learning compared to classroom based learning is its convenience. Students can participate in a course at the time and place that best works for them. Mobile learning expands on that convenience, freeing the learners from even having to be at a desk using a computer. With mobile learning, a tablet, (or even a capable smartphone) is all your users need, and classes can be had anywhere those can go, which is, literally, everywhere. There’s only one caveat: any old e-learning course wont do in this fancy new mobile e-learning world. Content has to be designed appropriately in order to be viewed and manipulated in a tablet. Principles of Learning and Teaching - Trinity Catholic College Our community is committed to excellence in learning and teaching in our contemporary world, and our consistently strong academic results speak for themselves. Our Principles of Learning and Teaching capture our belief that quality student learning is motivating, deep, communal and contextualised. It is our intention that our students are hopeful, engaged, resourceful and disciplined.
