Student Survey, mLearn conf & MTech SIG
A number of activities are now underway, but again in order to ground these in actual student requirements, the follow up survey on mobile use and feedback on the work to date is going on at the moment.
A student survey is again being held from StudentHome mobile, so staff who are also students are welcome to contribute (signing in with a student ID to see the notice), with a closing date of 1st Nov 2010.
I will be discussing interim points of note with colleagues in the mobile learning community next week at the mLearn 2010 conference as part of the poster session that’s been prepared.
Fuller results, and an update of current work will also be shared with our Mobile Technologies Special Interest Group on the 28th Oct 2010. The outline agenda is as below:
1. Feedback from student survey – overview of current usage patterns and future indicators
2. Validating development work for the RAP mobile strand, including discussing mobile web and apps and synergies elsewhere
3. Open updates on project work/interest areas
4. Capturing and sharing information and practice online via ‘mobisite’ http://www.open.ac.uk/mobisite
Note that I’m hoping the mobisite will be fully live imminently – at least in its basic state, to validate and start to input more content.
