12 Principles Of Mobile Learning...Another from TeachThought, which is becoming a real go-to site for direct ideas. This one is one mobile learning, and what learning looks like and what if can afford.

Alfredo Corell's insight:
Mobile Learning is about self-actuated personalization. As learning practices and technology tools change, mobile learning itself will continue to evolve. For 2013, the focus is on a variety of challenges, from how learners access content to how the idea of a “curriculum” is defined. Technology like tablets PCs, apps, and access to broadband internet are 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.

You're welcome :)
It's interesting interesting that you mention POV and stance, as that is not something I had explicitly articulated for myself, but naturally it must be implicitly true. In that sense, it reminds me (again) that curation forces self-reflection in order to present the content better, and that can only be a good thing.

Agree with posts about curation guiding self reflection. This interview in particular is top value and two of my fav people indeed.

This would work well with the implementation of an eBook signout system that allows the publishing of student work.
Let's get ambitious!!! I'm sure students will love it. Hard work and high rewarding outcomes!
An app that could be built into student activities or assessment if iPads are introduced across the board.
