The document discusses evaluations of a mobile learning (mlearning) pilot program conducted by Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology. The program used mobile phones to help apprentices acquire new workplace skills and develop digital portfolios. Evaluations found that extensive support was needed for the different IT skill levels of apprentices and that web access costs limited the portfolio concept. Overall, the program showed potential for digital storytelling and tracking identity formation through richer narratives of lifelong learning using blended mobile and desktop platforms.
