This is a good overview of mobile learning followed by a pointless trial using grade 9 students. I say 'pointless' because the 63 students were given task-specific mobile phones twice a week over a two or three week period to do vocabulary lookups. "The high school permitted the treatment group to use the phones in the classroom for only 20 minutes each day for 7 days or a total of 160 minutes." What would you expect to learn from such a study?
