กรอบแนวคิดที่น่าสนใจสำหรับ m-Learning สิ่งสำคัญ ได้แก่ การที่ผู้ใช้ (ทั้งผู้เรียนและผู้สอน)จำเป็นที่จะต้องพิจารณาถึง มิติต่างๆ ของการบูรณาการเครื่องมือการเรียนรู้ใหม่ๆ เข้าไปใช้ในชั้นเรียน มากกว่า รู้จักวิธีใช้เครื่องมือเหล่านั้น เพียงอย่างเดียว

Ralph Springett's curator insight, May 15, 4:01 PM

I personally would change the Social Aspect to the Resource (learning material) Aspect. I think the social can be captured through the learner aspect but I see the learning material as being a critical part of the framework, especially when it comes to putting theory into practice.

McGreal, Rory et al. (eds.) - Perspectives on Open and Distance Learning: Open Educational Resources: Innovation, Research and Practice

McGreal, Rory et al. (eds.) - Perspectives on Open and Distance Learning: Open Educational Resources: Innovation, Research and Practice | (e)Books and (e)Resources for Learning & Teaching | Scoop.it

This book, initiated by the UNESCO/COL Chair in OER, is one in a series of publications by the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) examining OER. It describes the movement in detail, providing readers with insight into OER’s significant benefits, its theory and practice, and its achievements and challenges. The 16 chapters, written by some of the leading international experts on the subject, are organised into four parts by theme:
1. OER in Academia – describes how OER are widening the international community of scholars, following MIT’s lead in sharing its resources and looking to the model set by the OpenCourseWare Consortium
2. OER in Practice – presents case studies and descriptions of OER initiatives underway on three continents
3. Diffusion of OER – discusses various approaches to releasing and “opening” content, from building communities of users that support lifelong learning to harnessing new mobile technologies that enhance OER access on the Internet
4. Producing, Sharing and Using OER – examines the pedagogical, organisational, personal and technical issues that producing organisations and institutions need to address in designing, sharing and using OER
