Refining Current Practices in Mobile and Blended Learning ─ New Applications

This volume reprints 17 papers originally published in International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning, vol. 2, issues 1-4 by IGI Publishing during 2010. Several of the chapters stem from the Alpine Rendezvous workshop organized by the Stellar network, which gives them a particular emphasis on technology-enhanced learning in the context of technological, societal, and cultural transformation. Topics include unlocking lifelong learning through e-heritage, supporting Japanese mimicry and onomatopoeia learning with sensor data, integrating Google Earth with geological reasoning for middle school lessons, and introducing work-based mobile learning. The last chapter is a book review by editor Parsons. Annotation c2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
