Over the past month I have had meetings with my Dean and instructors interested in developing external studies programs at Langara. While working with this group I thought that mobile learning might have and interesting place within this type of program. For example, you have twenty students visiting a variety of localities. At each locality they could focus one a one defining element and post it on a site.
For example if we visit a Roman Fort. I could have the students work in groups with each group focusing on a particular question. They could post both text and images. I am not sure where they would post them and how the class would then review them but we will see.
A second idea along the same line is to develop a treasure hunt for students to undertake when they visit an archaeology site.
OK for now.
