This document discusses how mobile devices can be used for learning at the College of Charleston. Mobile learning is described as both formal and informal, context aware, and authentic for learners. Mobile devices can be used to increase interaction with course content, provide increased access to student information and campus resources, create representations of knowledge, augment face-to-face instruction, support performance and decision making, and deploy instruction anywhere. Examples are provided of different mobile apps and tools that can be used for these purposes.

What is mobile learning?
Mobile learning is more than just
