Getting going with own mLearning experimenting

07/10/2007 by nicola.

Now website is up and running, going to get started , using some mobile device or learning considerations, learning objectives, learning design theories not detailed at this point (there is more than enough good stuff on this which doesn’t need to be repeated by me, (will mention any being applied in very brief details shortly), trying out mobile web pages by designing wireframes and then the pages, investigation of navigation, linking to see if a set of mobile web pages can make a good mLearning ‘package’.
Planning to start documenting this over next few weeks - but is being done outside of FT working hours so don’t expect to update on a daily basis.

Having just read a 2 page spread in Independent on Sunday about increasing risk of developing brain cancer, should re-iterate that any audio or spoken parts of mobile learning should be completed via a handsfree unit i.e. the closer the handset is to your brain, the increased risk (or that’s how I understood it). Slightly worrying that I could put three microwaves next to my head and achieve the same level of risk… but hopefully scientists will develop some useful solutions.
