As an educator, do you see yourself using mobile learning? Given the restrictive nature (screen size, bandwidth, download time, etc) how popular do you think M-learning will be in the future? Can all subjects be taught with m-learning or do complex subjects still require a traditional didactic approach to learning?

 Mobile devices have become increasingly popular with the “informal learner” because informal learners will use whatever techniques, resources, and tools best suit their learning needs and personal preferences. As ownership of mobile devices becomes increasingly widespread is it likely that they will remain primarily used for informally learning activities or will mobile devices become more mainstream in formal learning settings. What factors determine the success or failure of mobile devices in formal education settings?
