Student comments
• “Downloading apps helped me study in my free
  time at work. Something I would not have been
  able to do without [my] mobile device.”
• “It helps with the flexibility of receiving a good
  grade. I was all over the place: airport, doctor's
  office, work, home, community pool, a friend's
  house, and I was still able to complete my work.”
• “I love practical applications in classwork because
  it is education in ‘real time’. Technology changes
  so fast and this class encompassed all the new
  technology and tools.”
Findings: Instructors
• Apple users
• Apps
• Student engagement
  – Mobile device experience
  – Unenthusiastic students  dislike technology

“…the main advantage was giving the students
the opportunity to have knowledge at their
fingertips.”
