JISC Mobile and Wireless Technologies Review
To a great extent, the problem with mobile learning initiatives is that we, to quote Marshall McLuhan, “look at the present through a rear view mirror. We march backwards into the future" (McLuhan and Fiore, 1967). Mobile learning may mean different things to different people, but it is the dialogue that an institution begins with itself 0 its staff, its learners, its community - that matters. It is certainly not time for ‘business as usual’. It is time to define and start driving innovation.
