Mobile Education

  In my school, we are still in developing stages to have everybody to work inclusively integrating technology in our classrooms.  With the new developments, mobile education really needs to adopt its own model. In traditional classroom learning environment, all the activities, such as lectures, assignments, discussions, presentations, and so on, are all carried out at a designated place and time. Desktop computerized education extends the range of education to places where wired connection is ready. Now with mobile technologies, the range of education can be further extended by wireless connection to places and time of learners' choice regardless of availability of wired infrastructure. This is a significant step towards the learners beginning to gain control over their own learning schedule. The shift from desktop to palmtop education has great potential of facilitating the learning activities, which consequently increases the efficiency of educational information exchange between the learners and the teachers.
