Excellent Technical Resource for Mobile Learning

by Gary Woodill on February 9, 2010

Robert Gadd, the CEO of OnPoint Digital, has one of the best blogs available on mobile learning, even though he has only started blogging at the beginning of the year. Robert has a great technical grasp of what is needed at the present time to make mLearning work. Recently he started a 7 part series of posts on helping his readers to understand the different content types available to developers of mobile learning. Here are the links to this series:

mLearning Content Types – Overview and Intro

mLearning Content Types – Level 1: Messages

mLearning Content Types – Level 2: SMS Campaigns

mLearning Content Types – Level 3: Voice

mLearning Content Types – Level 4: Reference

mLearning Content Types – Level 5: Courseware

mLearning Content Types – Level 6: Rich Media

The reasons these types can be seen as levels is that technically they range from the simple to the complex in terms of the difficulty of production and the capabilities needed for the playback device and software. This is valuable information for those starting out to develop for the emerging world of mobile learning. (GW)
