Mobile Learning Redefined
26 11 2006Steve Dembo, author of tech42.com has posted up a super video presentation entitled “Mobile Learning Redefined“. His “redefinition” centres around using the technology already in the pockets of students, rather than the introduction of “new” technologies. He covers a number of approaches already covered in this blog (such as 2D Barcodes, mobile web site tools, and moblogging), but also brings up a few new ideas worth exploring, such as:
- QuizFaber – QuizFaber creates multiple-choice quizzes for the mobile web
- Flickr – features a mobile version of Flickr.
- Mobilicio.us – Mobilicio.us allows you to remotely access your bookmarks, and Del.icio.us mona allows you to remotely save bookmarks
- Remote Podcasting – Gcast.com allows you to call a phone number to leave a message, which is instantly published as a podcast.

Interesting video and a nice list of “new ideas”. I would include in it the MobilED platform (open source software), which makes it possible to use online media databases (such as Wikis) from your mobile phone. If you have smart phone you can use multimedia with the server. More information: http://mobiled.uiah.fi
