E-learning has often been described as learning anytime,
anywhere, anyplace but that is, in most people's
imagination, using a laptop or a PC which is not in their
office. But mobile phones are now ubiquitous with a high
proportion of the population owning and using one regularly.
Personal digital assistants are now becoming capable of doing
what a lot of PC's can do, but suggest to many that you
should actually do learning on one and invariably you are met
with furrowed brows and enquiries as to whether you are being
serious about it.
Just like e-learning, mobile learning has its limitations, but
it also provides a host of new possibilities to deliver learning
when you need it, literally wherever you are. This conference
will explore just where we are in delivering learning using
mobile devices. It will de-mystify the term and lay out the
whole new range of possibilities that are becoming available.
You will hear from practitioners, researchers and those that
have been there and done it with the results that they have
achieved.

moreTearing Down the Walls
In this article, Dr. Elayne Coakes analyses the project Tearing Down the Walls, which draws upon a Web 2.0 infrastructure to provide an environment in which students develop applications in accordance with their needs. The project idea came from Roger James, Information Systems Director at the University of Westminster. He wondered what would happen if students were allowed to develop new applications for other students and maybe staff within the existing ‘garden walls’ of the university’s applications. The project is called internally TWOLER where the ‘LER’ stands for Lightweight Enterprise RSS and the ‘TWO’ for Web 2.0.
