Mobile Learner Support

Recently, the MTech group conducted a device roundup to relate experiences in using particular mobile technologies.

Specifically, we looked at:

• Apple iPod Touch (and quick comparison with iPhone)
• Qtek 9100 – PDA/Smartphone
• Nokia N95 – Multimedia phone
• Asus EEE PC – Ultramobile PC/Sub-notebook

and there are some captured session feeds and notes available from: http://conclave.open.ac.uk/m-tech-group/index.php/Devices
This was also the first opportunity for us to try the KMi Podcast Directory currently in development, so you can also see a rough-cut of the devices used, with commentary at: http://podcast.open.ac.uk/podcast.php?id=34

A follow-up session is planned for 10th March in the Library Presentation room, where we hope to cover the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet, Samsung Q1 ultramobile PC/tablet among others.
