MOBILE LEARNING BASICS

This article informs us about mobile learning they intel that e-learning is different from mobile learning as eLearning is a technology based phenomenon. Mobile learning to the authors is described as simple and direct. The idea may have came for the evolution of computers and audio to soon develop mobile learning. The advantages is very straight forward, mobile learning can be accessible anywhere however it still hold the same limitations a computer if the device loses connection than stops the learning. One of my concerns if can this idea really be developed in schools? Most schools frown a pun mobile phone maybe in a really high advanced technology schools/academy can accommodate to mobile learning (Hartnell-Young & Heym, 2008). (Hartnell-Young & Heym, 2008) actually agrees with the article and suggest more ways how mobile learning can be benefit education practice today.
