Conference on Connected Mobile Learning

Dwayne Harapnuik from Abilene Christian University posted this notice for an upcoming conference on Connected Mobile Learning. There are bound to be great ideas discussed at this conference. It might even challenge our thinking about how learning happens. See the post below.


"ACU is hosting the 2011 ACU Connected Mobile Learning Summit at ACU on February 28 and March 1, 2011. ACU Connected is an international conference focusing on the role that mobile learning and digital books will have on the future on learning (more on that below).
