Mobile Learning Event - December 8th 2006


One of the problems we have experienced with Web2.0 technologies is keeping various blogs and wiki's up to date with recent news. Actually, that's a poor excuse for failing to add news of our Mobile Learning Event which took place in December 2006 and featured the combined talents of Andy Black (day job with BECTA), Di Dawson (ACL Consultant), Geoff Stead of CTAD Tribal and Steve Siddaway of Edu-Text.


The St Nicholas Centre, in central Ipswich, was the venue, and coped just about, although we had some problems with accoustics and technology - although we now suspect that Andy may have just overloaded the anglican technology with his hi-tech gizmo-mad-stuff. Either way the audience of 55, representing schools, colleges, ACL providers and other areas of the public sector, were subjected to a range of new mobile technologies including Edu-texts school-based system for community texting .
