Mobile Technologies in Education (mobile learning)

There is no mobile technology in our workplace, therefore, we would like to introduce you some interesting mobile learning practices.


The following examples show us teachers try to adopt latest, attractive and interactive mobile technologies in classroom so that students are motivated to learn. Students usually are very interested in using mobile technologies since they are allowed to move freely in the classroom and more easy to "play" with their classmates. Also, It helps them understanding the concept through mobile technologies rather than memorization.

  2. Thanks.
    We do agree that videos are one of the most effective media that can present brilliant ideas and also attract people. Through this blog, we try to go beyond what have been taught.
