Handheld Learning - learning with mobile and ubiquitous technologies

Lovely idea pointed out by Russell Buckley's Mobilehappy blog. My dutch isn't up to getting the whole picture, but it seems that this is a project to get kids to teach oldies (which means over 35, looking at the chap in the picture) how to use their mobile tech products.

Now if we could get pupils/students to do a regular spot of that for teaching staff in school, learning technology would come on in leaps and bounds!

I was EIF '08 recently and went along to the Ninterndo stand that was packed with children and their parents. I asked the Nintendo employee a question about Nintendogs, " How do I get to the park?" and she didn't know. However, I had a crowd of young kids immediately come over to show me how to make the most of walks with my dog and also how to become much more successful at the game than I currently was. I was left with a refreshing take on how learners can be active participants in the learning process and with a renewed vigour for getting my Nintendog Alice up to Championship standard!
