  1. Mobile Learning: Why, when, where, what, who and how Mary Mwangi (Ed.D) 2013

  2. Pencil vs. mobile learning The essence of the pencil is that you’ve got it all the time. I can pull it out of my pocket in a moment’s notice; it’s not a big deal. I don’t have to go to a special place. If I’ve got to write something, if I’ve got to calculate something, if I’ve got to draw something to make a point, I’ve got it all the time. It’s a personal instrument, and this is what is going to happenwith the digital technology. It’s going to be the pencil of the future. And I mean pencil in the sense that it’s got to be with us all the time to be used when we need it, when we want it, for a vast diversity of purposes. And when we do this, we will find that people will use them in very, very different ways--if we let them. Seymour Papert (Diversity in Learning: A Vision for the New Millennium, 1999)
