Adult ed Technology colleagues,

I would like to hear from teachers who use Mobile learning (M-
learning) with their adult learners, for example who use sms text
message polling of their students to answer questions in class and
where graphs of the results are instantly updated and displayed on a
web page, or to find out what the best date and time is for a class
picnic or field trip, or in other ways. If there are enough people
doing this or planning to do this, I will form an online group
(probably a Google or Ning group) so that these teachers can help/
support/challenge each other specifically in using M-learning tools
with their students.

Please email your response to me privately, letting me know how you
and your students use or plan to use cellphones for education
purposes, and if you would like to actively participate in such a group.

If you would like to learn more about using cellphones for student
learning, see these power points developed by Susan Gaer and Liz Kolb
