World of Learning Conference - Mobile Learning Speech
I was encouraged by the attendance and response at my speech Wednesday 'Learning on the Move' at the World of Learning conference in Birmingham. (You can view the slides here).
I highlighted how a variety of tools and approaches are necessary to support workers at all levels, beyond just 'elearning in your hand'. Many of the web 2.0 approaches and tools were new to the participants so we have a ways to go I think before we see widespread use of RSS, mobile video and mobile communities to keep people informed and connected in the enterprise.
It makes me think it is time to run another 'Mobile Solutions' Workshop!
