The number of use cases of mobile learning in practice continues to grow. While there are plenty of great examples, there are also a large number of examples where mobile learning strategy and solutions were poorly implemented. What can these “mFails” teach us about the ultimate promise and utility of mobile learning?
In this session you will learn three common mistakes technology and learning leaders make when implementing a mobile learning strategy for the first time. Examining each of these mFails will be helpful in defining optimal use cases and correctly positioning mLearning solutions in a holistic strategy. You will leave this session with an understanding of best practices for developing mobile learning initiatives.
In this session, you will learn:
- The most common mLearning implementation failures
- How to spot common mistakes made during implementation
- How to avoid these common mistakes and failures
- Emerging standards and best practices for mLearning
