Paper Abstract:
|
For the support of learners of tomorrow a mobile workforce is essential in our connected society. More and more social
network sites are growing up. Google launches software for mobile devices; the market is growing. But the question,
which rises is: is mobile learning just a future term, or does it become reality? Can these tools be useful in teaching and
learning processes? And what does mobile learning means for networks and communities of practice? Some of these
questions we try to answer. We set up a microblogging community channel about our work and research topic e-learning.
In shortest time we reach 23 participants. We tested our microblogging community locally in our offices and mobile from
our mobile devices. In this article we discuss advantages and disadvantages from microblogging from our point of view. |
