Educational Technology Motivator and Dreamer
Mike Travismtravis@assets-school.net
Count them - 3 - (three) (tres) (san) - that is how many classes I have left before I can start my dissertation and graduate! I have this class and then two seminar classes to write and get my proposal approved! As far as technology is concerned, I love my laptop! I literally wore my last Mac out from using it so much. I have had an iPhone for almost two years and love it as well! There are some great educational tools on it and I can't wait to share and learn from everyone! I currently run the Schools of the Future Grant at Assets School in Honolulu and it has been an incredible experience so far. I am also a Math and Technology teacher at the school as well

Lost... I ended up in the College of Library and Information Science (LIS) after doing a semester in the graduate program for Curriculum Studies (didn't think it was a good fit). I am loving the LIS program and was inspired to take this class because of the changing role of librarians or library media specialists (lms). In many schools the lms is directly linked to committees that purchase mobile technology equipment. I have two more classes until I graduate with my Master's of Library and Information Science for school librarianship.

Maria Elena Andayamandaya@hawaii.edu
A year ago I told myself if I passed the Apple IT Certification tests I would open up a store or at least create a App and call it 'iMaria'. Since then I've passed two certifications tests but no store or App to call my own.
Luckily I have a day job that allows me to play with all the Apple products an Apple enthusiast could ever dream of. My current position as a Technology and Education Specialist has got me to the question how all the technology I have at my finger tips could help students succeed in college. Recently the director of Kipuka Native Student Center asked me to do some research how iPads could be effectively used to enhance instruction and student learning at the University of Hawaii at Hilo.

In the class I am hoping not only to answer my question but also the Director's question so the justification for funding can supported by data we all gather this semester.

Some interesting facts about you in terms of your use of mobile device in life in general and for learning in particular: I used the kindle's text-to-speech function to read my assignments for one semester. Otherwise I am always listening to podcasts on my iPhone and iPod nano.

Kanoe Kruise Mac Os Update
I'll probably be talking a lot about my experiences in the virtual class here. This mobile learning class and the other virtual world class are the ideal classes for me this semester in terms of challenge, workload and content. In the past I have taken four graduate classes, which is no fun in the long run.
Yeah I couldn't really come up with a unique name here. I'm no legitimate architect, but I do enjoy building things. On a whim I could go down to some furniture store to buy a desk and spend half the day building it. This lifelong passion for building things and enjoying the results of my hard work is translating well to my endeavors in the Second Life class I am taking with Dr. Leong. Already I am attempting to build a Second Life version of my 2001 Ford Mustang, who I named 'Kanoe' long ago.
Soon, I hope to build a large airship or spaceship for inter-virtual travel so I can conquer all of virtual space. Or something like that. I've been playing too much Mass Effect 2 on the Xbox 360 over the summer. My avatar in Second Life is 'Shepard Acanthus'; the first name being the last name of the charismatic protagonist and last hope for Humanity in outer space against an ancient threat that posits that all organic existence is due for total annihilation.
As you can tell, I am an avid video gamer (when time permits). When I was young, owning only one system and maybe two games, I resorted to loaning out games I borrowed from friends to other friends to play and complete somewhere near 30 RPG games. I know! It's crazy, unethical and uncool. In my college days, now having working income, I've amassed a 100+ collection of video games for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, PSP, and Nintendo DS.
I feel there is unlimited potential for video games as a way to educate people, as I certainly believe that violent video games are so influential that it CAN affect some people in a negative way. I hope to help reverse that stigma of video games. I hope to use the skills I learn this semester and beyond to create my history/social studies themed video game for my final masters project in Educational Technology. When I was in high school, I aspired to be a Culinary Chef; after two years of dedicated work I realized I actually only enjoyed eating and not really cooking. I hope the same doesn't apply to my love for video games.
Sudha Rajouria - Novice mobile learner
Hi my name is Sudha Rajouria. I am novice of mobile world. The only mobile device I own till now is a regular cell phone and a laptop. I am here to change the way I use my cell phone and other electronic mobile devices that can enhance learning. I believe mobile devices can be very useful in learning and within a few years it will change the way we learn, create education materials and to implement educational programs.

I have some major issues with our newly addicted mobile society. I'm hoping to separate my feelings toward the over-connected masses from the educational possibilities of mobile technology. Don't hate the baby - hate the diaper :)
I have an iTouch ... I don't use it for learning ... not sure if I need it for learning ... I have a computer for that ... books are cool too

Chaz Luke - Technology Slave
Hey everyone! My name is Chaz Luke. I've been around mobile devices for years and years. I remember my mom had the cell phone that looked like a brick and my first cell phone was the old Nokia that you could play 'snake' on (anyone remember these?). I currently use my Samsung Moment with Google (Android platform) to keep me busy. I also am a fan of Apple, but unfortunately, I can't afford most of their products! :( I have yet to learn how mobile devices can be used to educate, but I'm looking forward to exploring this new world with all of you!
chazluke@gmail.comiMelda: iLive with no iPhone [yet?] but iDream & iLike!
Hi! iAm iMelda Gasmen, quite new in the mobile learning world. I still dream of owning an iPhone one day where you can do all sorts of activities: recreation, learning and business -- an-all in one device. I boast [or maybe not] of an old reliable Mac Powerbook laptop which is now actually a desktop because the battery does not really last for one hour now. Even as old as it is, my powerbook still does wonders but it's just really so slow. I am planning to purchase very soon- a new phone [unfortunately, not an iPhone] and maybe a new laptop to keep me up with so many things to do. iNeed patience, a lot of patience when I am using my computer! I so want to learn how to integrate other forms of technology in the classroom & what a better way than to explore the captive audience of students who already have these mobile device to hopefully, enhance & jazz up the learning/teaching process!
Erenst Anip: To be (mobile) or not to be
Hey all, my name is Erenst Anip. Like Chaz, I have been exposed to cell phone since approximately 15 years ago, give or take 1 year. I still remember competing to get the top score playing 'snake' on old Nokia phones. I was lucky enough also to have been in contact with computer and gadget when I was in elementary school [it was a big deal back there and then]. Nowadays, with such rapid technology advancement, people are consumed with technology. It's getting hard to keep up and if we don't keep up [in the case of big metro cities of Asia: Singapore, Jakarta, Taipei, etc], we'll be out of the loop - thus my subtitle.
I'm intrigued and would like to know how we can utilize such consumptive technology for [enhancing] learning, esp. with the next generation, the born-digital babies.

Ellie Robins: at your service....sort of???
Hi, my name is Ellie and I'm a user of mobile technologies. I currently own a Blackberry Bold 9700. Why do I have a BlackBerry and not an iPhone? Well that's easy, I'm already uses to the operating system of a BlackBerry and I like the multiple email features that I use daily. I'm usually a very busy woman, with a teaching career and a teenage son; I like to stay on top of things, especially Facebook. What was my personal interest in this class, well I'm interested in learning whether or not mobile technologies will become an educational tool, like a chalk board or a textbook, or a supplemental aid to teachers, like a calculator or video.
The difference between a white board and textbook versus a calculator or video, is that the white board and text book are used regularly, whereas the calculator and video are used primarily as supplemental materials. For example, a teacher is able to acquire a smart board for their classroom, but use it primarily as a fancy over head projector.
Does mobile technologies and its ability to reach masses of people, be the connecting factor needed to link education and technology. Do instructional designers and program developers understand the needs of an average classroom? Do teachers fully understand the capabilities of mobile technologies? It will be interesting to see what this course will be able to unveil about the advantages or disadvantages of mobile learning.
