27. M-Learning – Value
It is important to bring new technology into the classroom.
It will be more light weight device compare to books, PCs.
Mobile learning could be utilised as part of a learning
approach which uses different types of activities (or a
blended learning approach).
Mobile learning supports the learning process rather than
being integral to it.
Mobile learning needs to be used appropriately, according to
the groups of students involved.

28. Mobile Training – Why Isn’t it Everywhere?
Cost and Complexity
– No common technology
– Instructional design challenges
– Lack of content re-use across mobile and desktops
Diverse range of devices to support
Lack of LMS support
Bandwidth issues / lack of offline capability
Limited form factor and user experience for many scenarios
– The tablet is changing all that!

HTML5 is the latest version of the HTML open Web standard
– The term is used loosely and often encompasses
CSS3 and JavaScript
HTML5 (together with CSS and JavaScript) lifts the
restrictions of earlier HTML standards by natively supporting
– Advanced graphics
– Video and audio
– Typography
– Animations and many other interactive effects
