5. Traditional benefits of eLearning » Possibility to respond quickly to short product/technology cycles » Always available, always accessible » Cost-efficient » Possibility to calculate ROI and analyse the impact of the investment » New multimedia methods for illustration (animation, video, etc) » The latest information, single point of delivery, easy update and maintenance possibilities

6. Traditional benefits of eLearning » Possibility to respond quickly to short product/technology cycles » Always available, always accessible » Cost-efficient » Possibility to calculate ROI and analyse the impact of the investment » New multimedia methods for illustration (animation, video, etc) » The latest information, single point of delivery, easy update and maintenance possibilities » But are we satisfied with the success of eLearning ?

7. eLearning or mLearning is only seldom enough as a complete solution » One-way information delivery » Getting the amount of content right » Getting the type of content right » Getting experts to contribute » Usability and accessibility » Communities missing » Collaboration and discussion potential not reached » Limitations on creativity » Does not leverage student motivation and engagement potential » Difficulty with easy updating » Inadequate feedback channels » This all leads to less of an audience than hoped for

8. Evolution? Revolution? Bitville Oy Antti Keurulainen

9. » Web 2.0 is: WEB 2.0

10. » Web 2.0 is: » Interaction of people who share the same interest » People-oriented instead of content oriented » Distributed ownership WEB 2.0

11. Community based learning  Liberate knowledge  Allow distributed ownership  Reward for participation  Make contribution easy and fun  Share interest  Focus on people  Discover expertise  Reveal innovation  Exploit user motivation

19. Four alternatives for developing and distributing content to mobile devices  Native installations  Flash  HTML evolution (HTML 5)  Java

20. Native applications  Is reliable in tested devices  Also works offline  Slow process for development and testing  Needs installation  Needs certificates  Inefficient process if there are many installation packages  Inefficient if there are a lot of devices Pros:Cons:

21. Flash  Easy tool for creating content  Should work in similar way in all devices  Less testing, fast development  Industry standard  Not working well yet in mobile devices  Memory management is problematic  Animations might be too heavy for some devices  Different devices have different Flash players (Flash lite 3, 3.1, 4.0, Flash 10.1  Not available for iPhone/iPad  Future unclear for mobile devices! Pros: Cons:

22. HTML 5  No need for plug-ins  Partially supports offline use  Better forms for mobile devices  Less loading  Some animations possible  Video playback  Some hype ongoing  Does not work in Symbian3 phones  Different browsers behave differently  Professional animation tools not yet available Pros: Cons:

23. Java Clients  Useful approach for low end phones  Robust  Mature technology  Widely supported Pros:Cons:  Requires installation  Limited functionality  Dependency of one channel  Dependency on 3rd party

24. Case: Nokia Mobile Mathematics Bitville Oy Antti Keurulainen

25. Request from South Africa presidency: Can mobile phones be harnessed for learning mathematics in formal education - even without a teacher?

26. » Combining informal and formal learning » Combining learning and social networking » Service for learners and teachers » Active learning environment (not only content push or pull) » Theory » Exercises » Tutoring » Digital support for learning processes (e.g. Dynamic topic-specific hints) » Peer-to-peer support » Competitions » Add-hoc tests » Self-testing (activity score, competence score) » Multi-dimensional messaging and collaboration » Education for all: Sustainability, scalability, affordability, accessibility, inclusivity Service design principles

27. Momaths access channels © Nokia 2011 Nokia Mobile Mathematics – Deployment in new countries.pptx v. 0.2 2011-12-19 There are two channels to access Nokia Mobile Mathematics: MXit app is instaled on learner’s phone. Learner connects to MXit network, where Nokia Mobile Mathematics was implemented as one of the MXit channels. This connection can be zero rated. Direct access with web browser to Nokia Mobile Mathematics server. The web browser of computer or mobile phone can be used. Nokia Mobile Mathematics Plugin MXit Momaths channel Moodle MXit-chat WWW MXit app Web browser Zero rating can be implemented via Nokia browser and Opera Mini (Negotiations and implementation is planned for beginning of 2012) Zero rated
