As Learning Goes Mobile

In this session, we'll discuss the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project's latest findings about how people (especially young adults) use mobile devices, including smartphones and tablet computers (iPads). We'll explore how the mobile revolution has combined with the social networking revolution to produce new kinds of learning and knowledge-sharing environments and the challenges and opportunities this presents to colleges and teachers. Technology has enabled students to become different kinds of learners. We'll explore what this means.
