12 Principals of Mobile Learning

12 Principles of mobile learning -
http://www.teachthought.com/technology/12-principles-of-mobile-learning/

Mobile Learning is about self-actuated personalization.

will continue to evolve. For 2013, the focus is on a variety of challenges,

defined.

lubricating the shift to mobile learning, but a truly immersive mobile
learning environment goes beyond the tools for learning to the lives and
communities valued by each individual learner.
