m-Learning Evaluation
Tuesday, March 2, 2004, 1:30-2:30
Whether you call it disconnected learning or m-learning, the meaning is
clear: Learners want their content to be as mobile as they are. The power
of PDAs is increasing to the extent that this desire can now be made a
reality. In fact, some forward-thinking vendors are now leveraging the
power of mobile computing platforms to make learning accessible to people
in-flight, en-route and even in the office. This evaluation will examine
how well these early players are doing and identify major strengths and
weaknesses to learning, training and performance support issues.
