“New
generations
of
young
people
who
have
grown
up
with
digital
technology
have
high
expectations
of
anytime,
anywhere
learning,
but
many
learners
do
not
have
a
clear
understanding
of
how
courses
could
or
should
use
technology
to
support
learning.
They
are
still
very
much
reliant
on
lecturers
for
guidance.”

According to a recent report from mobile manufacturer
Ericsson, studies show that:
“by 2015, 80% of people accessing the
Internet will be doing so from mobile
devices.”
Perhaps more important for education:
“Internet- capable mobile devices will
outnumber computers within the next year.”
