Liverpool John Moores University's strapline for our students is Dream, Plan, Achieve. During this interactive workshop, we intend to share our experiences of how we successfully deployed Blackboard Mobile Learn across the institution through 'dream', 'plan' and 'achieve' stages of implementation. We will cover our: • Pre-implementation drivers (dream) • 'Soft', rapid but meticulous launch (plan) • Post-implementation evaluation and responses to promote adoption (achieve) Throughout the presentation, we will invite participants to share their views or experiences from their particular perspectives, as existing users or those contemplating Blackboard Mobile Learn implementation. These will be captured and shared back to the room using the Socrative app. We hope that everyone who attends will find the workshop worthwhile and that it will promote further discussion after the session.

- groups - access via device vs access via desktopWhat were the main aims of this small scale research?Understanding students ICT approachBy using the affordances of Mobile technology, leveraging time and engagement for their study while on placement rotationExplore the key tools within BB Mobile20% students didn’t own a smart deviceSeveral students owned more than one device (phone and tablet)Use of a module study skills module – practical course, tends to be the module least engaged with.Interview early themes came out - not Location: There doesn’t appear to be a trend towards using handheld devices on the go for education with this group.Devices: A majority of students have got access to devices (both mobile and fixed). They did not choose the device based on its educational ability or flexibility though. They appear to have been more concerned with such things as price, portability, looks and brand. This appears to be the case for computers and handheld devicesTeaching: The groups both want face to face teaching to be the predominant feature of their programme, but the mobile group did highlight a number of issues which appear contradictory and worthy of further discussion – they use YouTube, they worry about internet access not being available, they don’t want too much PowerPoint but too much technology is bad! Social networks: Most students use them. They see a place for them in terms of communication but not socialising in education – they want a distinct barrier between us and them. They do not want Blackboard to be linked to social networks but do use it before Blackboard! Is it worth looking at Blackboard and its potential to enhance its social abilities or should we be looking to stop trying to achieve this. Engagement with online tasks has been consistent. The discussion boards tasks and blog talks have been completed by the majority of the group. However, the mobile test for revision (last one before xmas) was poorly completed( 4). Partly due to tutor error.Feb: final tasks and exit focus group
