21st Century Mobile Social Learning


The world is changing. Information is like air. Data is everywhere, free-flowing and accessible to virtually everyone for very little money. It means that the world has gone mobile. We have access to learning everywhere because of technology. 

Every day, students are seeking ways to personalize their learning by more effectively and efficiently using the mobile devices in their pockets and backpacks. They are using these technologies to collaborate with each other on history projects, to receive reminders about upcoming assignments and tests in math, and to take photos and videos of science labs to review later. They are using mobile apps to organize their schoolwork, check on grades, take notes in class and learn about school activities. 

As teachers and administrators have become mobile device users, or mobilists, their appreciation for how these devices can support and enhance learning is exponentially increased.
