Since 2002, Project WHIRL (Wireless Handhelds In Reflection on Learning) has investigated potential uses of handheld computers in K-12 science classrooms using a teacher involved process of software development and…

The World Bank and, subsequently, the World Links organization provided schools in developing countries with networked computers and training that supports integration of ICT into teaching. The study examines the…

This testbed incorporated interactive learning tools from a variety of university, nonprofit, and commercial developers, and hosted decentralized authoring teams consisting of teachers, developers and educational technologists.

On the basis of more than a decade of successful reports from the field and increasing evidence supporting wide-scale adoption, researchers have begun to connect teachers' insights about the technology…

This paper summarizes the design principles we have forged and some of the assessments we have developed that are particularly relevant to geoscience.

In this article, we describe the realities we found and the implications we drew from them for our project, which we argue have broad import for the design of handheld…

This volume interprets the research perspectives published in Evaluating Educational Technology: Effective Research Designs for Improving Learning to provide valuable insights for the successful use of technology in different classroom and curricular…

Many researchers see the potential of wireless mobile learning devices to achieve large-scale impact on learning because of portability, low cost, and communications features.

At the moment ‘wireless mobile technologies for education’ are incredibly diverse and incompatible; to achieve scale, a strong vision will be needed to lead to standardisation, overcoming the tendency to…
