Handheld Learning - learning with mobile and ubiquitous technologies

Survey live until August 2nd at:

http://elsa.open.ac.uk/mobiledevices.survey

I am working towards a PhD with the Institute of Educational Technology at the Open University.  The focus of my research is the ways in which PDAs and Smartphones can be used to support informal learning projects. I feel that the best way to find out how we can use mobile devices to support learning is to ask people who are already using them.  How do you use your mobile device, which features help or hinder you? Does the small screen cause you problems? Can you enter data quickly using the stylus?

I am interested in what you like about your device and what you don't like as well as info about learning related uses.

The survey consists of 3 pages and takes about 10 minutes to complete (page 2 is the longest so don't get discouraged when you get to it).  If you have any questions, please post them in this thread or email me and I’ll try to answer them.


Thanks
