Mobile Devices and Applications
Roscorla (2012) said “In the next year or so, the Horizon Report suggests that mobile devices and apps as well as tablet computing will enter the mainstream in K-12 education” (p. 1). She also said “Increasingly students want to bring their mobile devices to school” (p. 1). To that end, schools are cited in the report that have changed policies so students can bring mobile devices and use them as part of the educational process. I believe the trend toward mobile technologies will increase as more educational institutions K-12 and post-secondary embrace this innovation and the convenience it affords the teaching and learning process.
