As technology evolves we are ever more reliant on the use of
handheld and mobile devices, yet what do we know about their impact
on learning? While there is a lot of interest in mobile technology,
many schools still aren't sure how to best use it for learning and
teaching. Learning with Handhelds and Mobiles explores this
landscape and offers examples of how these technologies have been
used for learning, how the problems that have arisen are being
addressed, and offers ideas for the future. This invaluable book
gives a voice to teachers and educators using mobiles and
technology-enhanced learning in and out of schools, for regular
school work and for innovative projects through exciting
partnerships like Apps for Good. Learning with Handhelds and
Mobiles shows the changes that are taking place within schools as a
direct result of these emerging technologies, and contains case
studies with accounts of best practice in a variety of settings
including primary, secondary, and special schools, and learning
beyond their boundaries. The book also explores themes of pedagogy,
communication and affordances, collaborative learning, individual
creativity and expression, self-directed and informal learning and
outdoor education. The learning potential of handheld and mobile
devices has excited teachers and educators, but until now there has
been no structured, systematic overview available along with
reflections on how this technology is changing educational
practice. This book brings these together to provide a clearer
picture of what is currently a fragmented area, and offers expert
views of how we can understand these, and where it may take us
next.
