Listening to the student voice: How are students really using mobile technologies for learning?

Modern students communicate and interact with mobile technologies in ways that were unknown to generations before them.

Rarely seen without a mobile device glued to their hands, students of today have unique and specific expectations about connectivity and accessibility of information.

The University of Southern Queensland, in partnership with the Australian National University and the University of South Australia is working on a project to develop a Mobile Learning Evaluation Framework.

Australian Digital Futures Institute

Development of an Evaluation Framework for Mobile Learning

The aim is to provide higher education institutions with resources to effectively implement mobile learning initiatives.

One of the first steps is to gain insight into how learners who are familiar with mobile technologies in other contexts have integrated them into their learning.

This will help institutions to understand which mobile learning initiatives are relevant to students and how they are effective for their learning.
