Abstract
Most adults and adolescents in developed countries now own
mobile phones and media devices,
and for many people in developing countries a mobile phone can
offer the only means of sending
long distance messages. In a parallel development to the spread
of personal technology, since theearly 1980s schools, colleges and
universities have experimented with handheld technology for
learning, including classroom response systems, data probes, and
handheld writing tools.
Universities allow students to bring laptop computers to
lectures and some schools are nowproviding pupils with Personal
Digital Assistants and tablet computers. As personal mobile
technologies for learning become more widespread, studies are
starting to show evidence of the
value of incorporating mobile devices in teaching and learning
(McFarlane, Triggs and Yee2008; p.7) and also substantial issues,
including conflicts between informal learning with
personal devices and traditional classroom education (Sharples
2007). Children are developing
new skills and literacies enabled by mobile devices, such as SMS
texting, moblogging (writing
diaries and weblogs on mobile devices) and mobile video
creation. A new generation of location-aware mobile phones will
offer further possibilities, of education services and educational
media
matched to the learner's context and interests.
