mLearning has been on the radar for a few years now, but many organizations are still getting started. And that’s a vulnerable position; there are a number of mistakes that are easy to repeat if you haven’t been paying attention and really gotten steeped in the possibilities. Further, the field is changing rapidly. Yet with some basic models that help you “think different,” you’re ready to take advantage.

This session will lay out frameworks that will help you recognize the real opportunities mobile has. Working from both principle and pragmatics, you’ll explore the potential in ways that prepare you to adapt to the changes.
