What is Mobile Computer?
• You should be able to use
the same software,
which you use on a
desktop computer.
• A computer which you can
take with you all around.
• You can do all the things
which can be done with a
desktop computer.
Mobile Learning in Perspective
• Enabled by portable devices communicating
over wireless networks.
• Rapid innovation in hardware and software
combined with widespread adoption of these
technologies is changing the ecologies in
which we teach, learn, and live.
