Mobile Learning Design
Mobile Learning has become a hot-topic and therefore has been seriously laden with marketing and hype. 
We have been saying it� over and over again - mobile learning is here to stay! It’s only a matter of time before you will need to be invovled in it. Via Aneesh Bhat 
According to Tomi Ahonen, mobile is the fastest growing industry ever. But just because everyone has one, what does it mean?

For better or worse, many mobile learning applications simply don’t run in an LMS. Furthermore, many traditional e-Learning measures, such as mastery, completion, and course duration, simply don’t apply to mobile learning. These are all vestiges of the concept of “ahead-of-time” learning, not “just-in-time” information delivery. Here are three macro approaches to addressing m-learning: 1. M-Learning as a Clone: We want to build m-learning that duplicates what we do in our PC-based e-learning, so that learners have a choice of delivery formats. 2. M-Learning as a Stand-Alone Solution: We want to build m-learning in lieu of PC-based e-learning or as a replacement for existing e-learning courses. 3. M-Learning as Part of a Blended Performance Solution: We want to build m-learning that blends with other strategies and technologies to produce performance results.

mobile learning comes with its own set of challenges, especially for instructional designers who lay the foundation of the learning content. Know more. We often discuss how teachers find using technology in the classroom, what is difficult and what is easy for them when confronted with tech tools. It also might be worth looking at how digital natives, people very much at home with these technologies, think about education and what is important for them in the digital age

With the explosive growth in mobile devices, including smart phones and tablets, mobile learning, or "mLearning" is a natural application for this new technology. With the portability that these devices now give us, we can access the right information, right when and where we need it. How many times have you turned to your cell phone, when you needed directions or wanted to find out how to fix a leaky sink? It's the perfect "learning" tool
