Introducing the Mobile LearningToolkit for Educators
Introducing the Mobile Learning Toolkit |
The Mobile Learning Toolkit is designed for Teacher Educators and others who support the professional development of teachers/lecturers in their use of mobile technologies. It was designed and produced by a project team (see www.mttep.eu ) led by Prof. Kevin Burden (University of Hull, UK) as part of a transnational Erasmus+ initiative funded through the European Union.
It includes a pedagogical framework (the iPAC framework) around which to evaluate and construct meaningful and authentic mobile learning pedagogies. This is linked to a survey tool, enabling practitioners to measure their current use of mobile technologies and their students' experiences of mobile learning. Included in the toolkit is a series of interactive video case studies which bring to life the main features of the iPAC framework, helping to stimulate new ideas and practices in the classroom. The toolkit also includes a series of exemplar eBooks that illustrate the use of mobile technologies in teacher education, and a rubric for evaluating the value and use of Apps in different educational contexts. |
