Predictions for 2007 - Lisa Neal, eLearn Magazine
A myriad of new technologies impacts our daily lives in 2007. This fact is clearly on the minds of our experts this year as they consider how e-learning will be affected by these widespread changes.... Here's what our experts have to say this year... "The coming year will bring advances in mobile learning (m-learning) as Microsoft and Apple compete for the e-learning market with enhanced versions of Zune and the iPod. At the same time the major cell phone manufacturers will deploy many new models of the dual WiFi/3G cell phones. These phones will enable e-learners to access web materials (with no minutes charged) at WiFi access points and via advanced 3G cell where WiFi is unavailable. Learning providers, recognizing the rapidly expanding market of mobile-connected learners will ramp-up delivery of m-learning compatible courseware."—Ray Schroeder, Director, Office of Technology-Enhanced Learning, University of Illinois at Springfield, USA
