Eduserv Symposium - The Mobile University (is years behind)

Paul Golding - Sunday, May 30, 2010
I recently gave the opening keynote at the Eduserv Symposium 2010 - The Mobile University. (Slides and video below.)

Andy Powell did a fantastic job of chairing the event and of posting a useful summary (back channel - #esym10), which includes links to other participants' thoughts. One recurring theme that I heard was how most lecturers were a long way behind their students in adopting new technologies, mobile included. Whilst not surprising, this is nonetheless a worrying prospect for the future of education, which I expressed as fantastic opportunity for educators and innovators in the UK.
