There appears to be an awful lot of good information, reflection, pictures and videos about various sessions from this years Handheld Learning Conference.

For latest hits on Google Blog Search see here

Please help us and the rest of the community by posting any links you find (including your own) in this thread.

Thanks!

 

Hi Jont,

can i ask why you made that comment about students wnot wanting to buy Windows mobile devices?

Ta

ST

I'm so pleased this session worked out and thanks for everyone who got into the spirit of it!

Special thanks goes, of course, to Dan Sutch who agreed to host it

We are collecting presentation material for inclusion in the HHL 08 conference archive that provides an invaluable resource to the rest of the community. Anybody who presented at HHL 08 in this or other sessions please feel welcome (and thanked) for sending in their presentation to me  - graham (at) handheldlearning.co.uk using either http://www.yousendit.com or http://www.mailbigfile.com

Thanks to all again!

 

As part of a Masters thesis, I need to know two things:

1. What percentage of educational spending goes to mobile technology and infrastructure?

2. What percentage of jobs require technology (even mobile tech) skills?

Tony Vincent of Handheld learning suggested I seek the HHL community's collective response...

Thanks ahead of time,

Jonathan Nalder (Australia, but mLearnxyz.net on the web)
