From this unit, I have learned just how beneficial mobile learning is in the classroom. Mobile learning differs from electronic
learning because it takes place on mobile devices (iPads, smart phones, etc.). Mobile, personal devices can be taken around the
school, used anywhere in the classroom, and are user friendly. Apps can be loaded on all devices for use in the classroom or at
home. I have found so many great ideas to use in my future classroom. There are free, educational apps available for any content
level or grade level. These apps make learning more appealing and encourage kids to be engaged in the curriculum.
