Technology is becoming embedded and Wearable…. Talk to the hand…the gloves essentially have a speaker unit inside of the thumb of the glove and a microphone inside the pinky.

Technology Is ubiquitous (its everywhere!) For Pachler et al (2010:3) it is now accepted that mobile devices have a number of important characteristics which make them attractive from an educational perspective, including increasing portability, functionality, multimedia convergence, ubiquity, personal ownership, social interactivity, context sensitivity, location awareness, connectivity and personalisation
What phone do you have? Samsung? HTC? iPhone?
Mobiles have transformed how we communicate – it’s a new way of life
About sharing Communicating Inside and outside the classroom And learning?
Are we welcoming technology into the classroom? Or are we experiencing digital dissonance?
“11- 16 years olds… have high levels of access to Web 2.0 technologies…little evidence of ground breaking activities and only embryonic signs of criticality, self management to metacognitive reflection” Whilst most expressed an interest in using in using online technologies to support familiar school activities, such as presentations or for communication, learners seemed cautious about other activities associated with Web 2.0 tools, such as the shared construction of knowledge in a public format “ Luckin et al 2009
Situated learning This what our children do at school! In teacher training, this learning takes place in the context in which the new skills will be used and this learning can be said to be situated (Lave and Wenger, 1991).
What works? Personal ownership Collaborative learning Classroom dynamics Outdoor learning Bridging home-school divide
What should our response be? These students are using context based information to work on marketing theory. As they walk into a wifi ‘hotspot’ information is sent to their mobile phone (CONSENS EU project) Narrated examples of three mobile projects available from here: http://archive.learnhigher.ac.uk/videoresources/mlearning/

Example: In FHSCE we have the technology! We use Txttools https://www.txttools.co.uk/preloginjsp/index.jsp To get feedback in different contexts To text our major project students weekly study tips in class and when out on placement To engage large classes in discussions – like you have done Enhances student satisfaction & minimises low level disruption
“To possess the machines [they] only need economic capital; to appropriate them and use them in accordance with their specific purpose [they] must have access to embodied cultural capital either in person or by proxy” Bourdieu 1986 The challenge is how to develop the classroom of the future…. And it is a collaboration with our students..
