Mobile practices have become integrated into everyday life through organized social activities and relationships. While mobile technologies can be seen as just objects, when adopted into human practices they take on relational meanings. Mobile devices are subtly shaping social interactions and maintaining networks of communication. In educational contexts, mobiles offer opportunities for new forms of learning but also challenges around distraction and equitable access. Schools must consider how to teach mobile literacy skills to avoid widening digital divides.
Our mobile learning research and development work at The Open University has built expertise around pedagogical innovation in tandem with advancements in technology. Combining teacher-led, developer-led and learner-led innovation, we aim to develop new pedagogies that recognize the specific characteristics of design and support for mobile and contextual learning.

Presentation on 1G/2G/3G/4G/5G/Cellular & Wireless TechnologiesKaushal Kaith
This Presentation is explaining all about the Generations of Mobile or Cellular Technology (1G/2G/2.5/ 3G/4g/5G). This explain the invented details ,features,drawbacks,look of wireless models and comparison and evolution of technology from 1G to 5G and also explaining about wireless application and their services.
Educators know that learning happens best when learners are motivated and supported, so how can we support learning activities where students use the technology at their disposal? Our faculty used mobile and web technologies to create interactive tours and collaborative field research for students to engage with content situated in authentic contexts. Building on this experience, the Mobile Learning Incubator has been evaluating the integration of game elements into newer field research tools. In this session, we'll get in touch with our inner college student to understand the breadth and scope of mobile as a learning tool, synthesize our different perspectives in small groups, analyze and evaluate how current uses of mobile in higher education teaching and learning support these perspectives, and create a set of challenges and strategies around mobile learning for higher education IT to address.
OUTCOMES: Learn about several types of mobile-enhanced T&L activities * Inhabit a student's view of mobile * Create and share a range of potential learning activities based on that perspective * Evaluate how IT can address mobile learning needs, based on a T&L focus
Spaces, places and technologies: can we know, value and shape policy to provi...Martin Oliver
Values can be espoused; they can be enacted; but they can also be represented in the way that structures and systems are created (Feenberg, 1999). Students’ engagement with Higher Education is shaped in important ways by the spaces in which they study, the resources they work with and the materials they produce, things that are widely overlooked in educational research (Fenwick, Edwards & Sawchuk, 2011). This lack of scrutiny limits our ability to understand the values of higher education, and how they vary not only by discipline but also setting – which is an issue, since technologies (including resources and designed spaces) are so much more durable than talk or action in the way that they shape society (Latour, 1999).
In this paper, we report on a research project that explored sociomaterial aspects of students’ experiences of learning. 12 students (3 each of PGCE students, Masters’ students, Doctoral students and Masters’ students studying at a distance) undertook multimodal journaling over a period of 9 months to document the ways in which they used resources, technologies and spaces to be ‘digitally literate’, in order to achieve success in their studies. In addition to generating images, videos and field notes, the students were each interviewed three or more times to generate accounts of their studies.
The analysis of this dataset showed how markedly different ‘success’ was, in terms of resources and practices, to different students. It demonstrated that the phrase, “the student experience”, is misleadingly singular: students’ experiences varied considerably. It also revealed where and when their learning was or was not valued. Examples of such situations will be provided, to show how the configuration of spaces, technologies and other resources affects students’ ability to succeed in their studies, and what individuals did to overcome these.
Finally, we will illustrate how these issues relate to institutional policy making, looking at an example of how evidence about student experience does (and does not) link through to institutional action.
Inaugural Lecture
John Cook
Date: Tuesday 3rd of Feb, 2009
Time: 6pm
Venue: Henry Thomas room, Holloway Road, London Metropolitan University
Introduced by Brian Roper, Vice-Chancellor London Metropolitan University
Keynote presentation provided to a variety of audiences in early 2009, challenging educators to think more broadly about the massive impact of technology in the world and the way we need to be thinking about how we educate students for this future.
The role of narrative storytelling is central to almost any creative learning activity
involving children. Whether through words or images, or a combination of both,
children create and communicate their unique stories through the use of narrative.
Innovations in technology over the last few decades and, especially, within the last few
years are becoming a regular part of the educational experiences for children.
Children, by virtue of their age, are the earliest early-adopters of new technology.
However, there is a lack of education and training on how to use digital video
technology in order to expand the creative possibilities of children and their
imagination.
Our research attempts to address that deficiency by providing children
with the tools and environment to apply the knowledge they possess through the
utilization of digital video technology. In our research, we focus on the use of digital
video technology in children’s play activities. Digital video technology can be used to
enhance both the learning activities as well the creative output. The effects of mixing
traditional tools of learning with new instruments – particularly through the use of
video technology - in a group setting illustrates the importance of the creative process,
as well as creative output, in children.

Emerging technologies for teaching and learning: a tour of the 2010 horizon
How is the landscape for teaching and learning with technology changing this year? We begin with an overview of current methods for apprehending emergent technologies, including Delphi, futures markets, networks, and scenarios. Drawing on those methods we identify a series of emerging trends, from interface changes to open content to gaming. Next we delve into several high-impact fields. Social media has already transformed the general cybercultural world, and is reshaping the academy. Mobile devices have begun to revolutionize many levels of our technological interactions.
I research and develop programs on the advanced uses of information technology in liberal arts colleges. My specialties include digital writing, weblogs, copyright and intellectual property, information literacy, wireless culture and teaching, project management, information design, and interdisciplinary collaboration. I contribute to a series of weblogs, including NITLE Tech News, MANE IT leaders, and Smartmobs, when not creating digital learning objects (like Gormenghast). I’ve taught English and information technology studies at the University of Michigan and Centenary College.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Mobile practices in everyday life
1. Mobile practices in everyday life:
opportunities and challenges for
learning
Guy Merchant
Sheffield Hallam University
2. When they first developed computers, they didn’t
catch on because the screens were blank....
3.
4. Perspective 1
Were technologies merely objects totally
divorced from human praxis, they would be so
much 'junk' lying about. Once taken into
praxis one can speak not of technologies 'in
themselves', but as the active relational pair,
human-technology.
(Ihde, 1993:34)
5. Perspective 2
• Mobile practices have become part of
‘organized nexuses of activity’ everyday
‘doings’ and ‘sayings’ (Shatzki, 2001)
• the mobile phone is ‘subtly insinuating itself
into the capillaries of everyday life’ (Gergen,
2002:103).
6.
7. What is it?
• an over-priced toy?
• an intelligent machine?
• a fashion accessory?
• the next step in convergence technology?
• a totem of consumersim?
• a basic necessity for 21st century living?
8. the mobile
market (Ofcom 2011)
•64% of UK sales are
smartphones
•30% of mobile internet
users are under 25
•16-24s: 52% of media
activity is simultaneous
•text-based
communication is the most
popular media activity in
the daytime
•12-15s: 50% of those with
smartphones use them for
social networking
9. Layered networks
‘We may imagine here that dwelling about us at
all times are small communities that are unseen
and unidentifiable. However, as we stroll the
thoroughfare or sip coffee in a café their presence
is made constantly known to us. Each mobile
phone *….+ is a sign of a significant nucleus,
stretching in all directions, amorphous and
protean.’
(Gergen, 2003: 105)
10. We use mobiles
• maintaining lightweight contact with friends
and family members
• casual entertainment (watching and sharing
short movies, photo-albums and playlists)
• arranging both formal and informal meetings,
navigation and micro-co-ordination
• capturing objects and events (usually as
still/moving images)
• checking web-based information
11. Classroom ecologies
possibilities for different kinds of learning
relationship, different kinds of interaction,
different forms and purposes of communication
BUT
institutions are patterned by established
relationships, mediated by sets of accepted
schooled practices and instructional routines,
which in their turn are powerfully structured by
curriculum discourses
12.
13. The reaction!
Yes, Paul it is an experiment; tinker enough with this
country's children's education and you end up with
morons; exactly what the lefties want! How better to
destroy this country than by allowing total anarchy in
the classroom? The result; conveyor-belt system of
non-educated , complaint morons who will (on leaving
school )want to spend a life time sitting at home
playing computer games and texting their mates, who
will, if they can be bothered to at all, almost certainly
vote Labour- for more of the same!!!
- Anon, Haywards Heath, W.Sussex., 14/10/2009 20:57’
14. The evidence against?
‘technology obsession hinders spelling skills,
implicitly encourages plagiarism, and disrupts
classroom learning.’
(Daily Mail, 14/10/09)
15. 3 possibilities
1. Understanding information access
2. Understanding hyperconnectivity
3. Understanding the new sense of space

Mobile literacy ‘ ...how to use these technologies effectively
to ensure they end up on the right side of the digital divide:
the side that knows how to use social media...’
(Parry, 2011)
16. 3 concerns
1. is the fact that we can do these things
sufficient justification - what advantages do
they confer?
2. how do teachers manage the potential levels
of distraction?
3. which students have devices that are
sufficiently nimble, who owns them, and who
pays for them ?
17.
18. Campsmount
• After the fire: no student contact numbers or
addresses, no coursework, no VLE....no servers
• Within 24 hrs a Wordpress blog, Twitter feed,
Facebook group (1,500 members), and a
YouTube video press release (3,000 views)
• Working with donated laptops, iPod touches
• Spurred on to extensive blogging, QR codes,
Soundcloud, Coveritlive etc
19. Some uses
• Photographing notes, experiments, activities
(the things you can’t take away)
• Video records of projects or products being
tested
• Video, voice and image responses to learning
tasks
• Mobile desk referencing
• Organising learning (timetables, timelines etc)
20. Mapping practices
• photographing notes, • capturing objects and
experiments, activities events
• mobile desk referencing • checking web-information
• video records of projects or • casual entertainment (short
products being tested movies, photo-albums etc)
• video, voice, image • maintaining lightweight
responses to learning tasks contact
• organising learning • arranging meetings,
navigation and micro-co-
ordination
21. think its funny every one that eva went to campsmout wished it
would burn down and it did am sad to see it go but am all well
so
amused i had some gd memorys in that place thats the place that
made me who i am and i thank that place 4 that but the fucking
irony ey hahahahhahahahahahhahahahahaha-hahahahhahahaha
22. Some questions
• Mobiles can clearly help in organising learning
but how are they advantageous in learning?
• What (and whose)devices are most
appropriate in different learning contexts
(smartphone, iPod touch, tablet)?
• What should we be teaching about mobile
social networking?
23. Mobile literacy
‘ ...teach them how to use these technologies
effectively to ensure they end up on the right
side of the digital divide: the side that knows
how to use social media to band together.’
(Parry, 2011)
24. In conclusion
• What practices are legitimate/legitimated in
learning contexts?
• What constitutes ‘advantageous practice’?
