Mobile learning is positioned for
near-term and widespread

market consisted of over 6.5 billion
accounts
Relevance
tablets as a cost-effective strategy for
one-to-one learning: a systemic solution in
which every student is provided a device
that can be used to support learning in and
outside of the classroom
Programs for math, science and story
telling use tablets to do activities
