Fantastic slideshow on the importance of colors in web design. The same principles apply to presentations. Detailed information about color groups (primary, secondary, tertiary, complementary, analogous), color impact on emotions, meaning of colors, specific terms, tips for choosing the right color. Marvellous resource for art lessons.

Color is a powerful non-linguistic medium, not only in marketing but in learning. Employees process and recall information with greater speed and recall when managers present information at meetings strategically using color in presentations.

by Lee Dunn: I remember fondly, my time as a young and plucky probationary teacher. Exploring the realities of classroom practice and experimenting with new pedagogy. I recall quite clearly the time when my first classroom was equipped with a single desktop computer. Today, it is equipped with 30 desktop computers, a projector, an interactive whiteboard, a visualiser, an A3 colour printer, a laser printer and even a 3D Printer.

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.
