#GuildChat for 03/13/2015: Mobile Technologies and Learning
Our next #GuildChat takes place Friday March 13th at 11am PT / 2pm ET. The topic for this chat is Mobile Technologies and Learning.
Mobile technologies have quickly become the primary devices many people use to access information and connect with each other. As our habits for consuming and connecting with information continue to evolve, it will naturally change the ways in which we learn.
In this week’s #GuildChat we’re going to explore the many ways that mobile is changing the learning landscape. We’ll discuss how we use mobile for learning personally, and professionally. We’ll talk about the challenges and opportunities of using mobile in organizations, as well as sharing examples of mobile learning experiences done right.
Here are the questions currently scheduled to be posed during the chat.
- How do you use your mobile devices for your personal learning?
- What are some really good (or really bad) examples of “learning on a mobile” you have experienced in day-to-day life? What made it good or bad?
- What’s different about learning on a mobile device as opposed to other technologies?
- “Every organization is using mobile for learning, whether they realize it or not.” Do you agree or disagree? Why?
- What does it mean to have a “mobile strategy”? What types of things would need to be included in one?
- What are some things learning professionals do today that would need to be done differently for mobile? How are things different?
- Where do you see the mobile learning conversation going in the future?

| 1:17 PM | Learning_Dude | In a mobile app, I’m very interested in the UX/UI. If it’s not “pretty” I’ll probably delete sooner than later. #guildchat |
| 1:17 PM | seanbengry | A2) A good “mobile” learning experience is perfectly weighted for the moment of need (i.e. “what is” or “how to”)… #GuildChat |

| 1:19 PM | LearningNW | Has everyone forgotten about books….that’s still my favorite way to learn? #GuildChat |

| 1:19 PM | MelMilloway | I don’t think I am away from my computer enough to use my phone for tutorials. :( Everything I do is at my computer. #GuildChat |
| 1:19 PM | seanbengry | A2) Challenge is FORMAL training for a mobile device, it can be done well but must be single-concept, no “click next to continue” #GuildChat |

| 1:21 PM | seanbengry | @LnDDave Ah yes, completely agree! The nebulous “course” paradigm that needs to be defined before we even start building! #GuildChat |

| 1:22 PM | LnDDave | A3) We tend to answer this in the context of what we lose from “what is”, not in what we gain from the technology and mobility. #GuildChat |
| 1:22 PM | JD_Dillon | A3) Mobile devices are equipped with additional components to support potential learning – sensors, cameras, etc. #GuildChat |
| 1:23 PM | ExpertusONE | A1 We find work/learning often flows across devices. eg: start w/phone inquiry/interaction, return for deep dive on tablet/laptop #GuildChat |

| 1:23 PM | visualrinse | A3) most Mobile Learning isn’t a destination/activity in itself. It’s a support for the work or task at hand. #GuildChat |

| 1:23 PM | WonderPix | a3) easy way to learn and pass time in lines…#GuildChat |

| 1:45 PM | ExpertusONE | Agree. Seeing/doing is believing. #learning #mobility MT @MelMilloway #GuildChat |
| 1:45 PM | Learning_Dude | A6) We’re in the midst of a shift from desk to hand. Prepare to meet the needs of on-demand, when-and-how-I-want-it access. #guildchat |
| 1:45 PM | jadekaz | A6) Package or wrap differently…make it an app. Can still either be learning or performance support #guildchat |
| 1:45 PM | jennyrhill | @MelMilloway @Learning_Dude @weisblatt Some devices are helping w/balance, like @BlackBerry and their work/personal profiles. #guildchat |
| 1:45 PM | seanbengry | A6) It’s about creating/curating content that can be leveraged/accessed in the workflow. How does mobile fit in? #GuildChat |
| 1:45 PM | lucato_m | RT @eLearningGuild: Q6) What do learning professionals do today that would need to be done differently for mobile? How are things different… |
| 1:45 PM | jadekaz | A6) Take advantage of location awareness and integrate environment #guildchat |
| 1:45 PM | Ruthie_HB | Q6) Make all materials and info. to be consumed regardless of time/place. Though can we accept that would fulfill training goal? #guildchat |
| 1:46 PM | Learning_Dude | . @jennyrhill @MelMilloway @weisblatt @BlackBerry Meh. It’s a behavior thing. I’m also an addict; can’t disconnect. #guildchat |
| 1:46 PM | MelMilloway | @jennyrhill @Learning_Dude @weisblatt Someone needs to lock my work accounts on the weekend. That should be a thing for all! #GuildChat |
| 1:46 PM | weisblatt | A6) On computer, learner leaves reality and goes into the content. On mobile, learner takes content into reality. #guildchat |
| 1:46 PM | Learning_Dude | . @MelMilloway @jennyrhill @weisblatt Then you’ll get blamed when you “didn’t see the email.” #guildchat |

| 1:46 PM | britz | A6. Know that mLearning really doesn’t start w/ a mobile devices/content, it’s abt a person… being mobile #GuildChat |

| 1:47 PM | WonderPix | @MelMilloway @jennyrhill @Learning_Dude @weisblatt >or, that could be a whole new level of stress :) #GuildChat |
| 1:47 PM | spotlearning | @jadekaz on going mobile w/personal devices, have seen that for Learning as well…because mobile is simply more convenient #GuildChat |
| 1:47 PM | JD_Dillon | RT @britz: A6. Know that mLearning really doesn’t start w/ a mobile devices/content, it’s abt a person… being mobile #GuildChat |
| 1:47 PM | jennyrhill | @MelMilloway @Learning_Dude @weisblatt I have heard of some orgs doing just that- disconnecting outside work hours. #guildchat |
| 1:47 PM | MelMilloway | @WonderPix @jennyrhill @Learning_Dude @weisblatt LOL out of sight out of mind for me! #GuildChat |
| 1:47 PM | LnDDave | RT @JD_Dillon: A6) Focus on context, moment of need vs. “time to learn” #GuildChat |
| 1:48 PM | willconstantine | Q6) we need to disconnect other wise we lose people skills not to mention sleep stinks #GuildChat |
| 1:48 PM | JD_Dillon | A6) Look inward and recognize how we are using devices personally – use some common sense in our work #GuildChat |
| 1:48 PM | Ruthie_HB | RT @britz: A6. Know that mLearning really doesn’t start w/ a mobile devices/content, it’s abt a person… being mobile #GuildChat |
| 1:48 PM | eLearningGuild | Q7) Where do you see the mobile learning conversation going in the future? #GuildChat |
| 1:48 PM | jennyrhill | @britz At the core, it is always about the person! We should never forget to keep the learner’s needs first. #guildchat |
| 1:49 PM | weisblatt | RT @eLearningGuild: Q7) Where do you see the mobile learning conversation going in the future? #GuildChat |
| 1:49 PM | Learning_Dude | . @weisblatt Love this. Here’s (another) meme. #guildchat http://t.co/5lVJTqTeXC |
| 1:49 PM | willconstantine | A6) the solution is mobile which is meeting a need. Not vice versa. Know the difference #GuildChat |
| 1:49 PM | WonderPix | RT @jennyrhill: @britz At the core, it is always about the person! We should never forget to keep the learner’s needs first. #guildchat YES |
| 1:49 PM | JD_Dillon | A6) We have to get to know our end users – behaviors, preferences, tech capabilities, etc. #GuildChat |
| 1:49 PM | LnDDave | RT @britz: A6. Know that mLearning really doesn’t start w/ a mobile devices/content, it’s abt a person… being mobile #GuildChat |
| 1:49 PM | seanbengry | A6) It’s the fastest adopted technology in history, L&D should align to behavior not force old methodology into a smaller screen #GuildChat |
| 1:49 PM | JD_Dillon | RT @eLearningGuild: Q7) Where do you see the mobile learning conversation going in the future? #GuildChat |
| 1:49 PM | weisblatt | A7) “What do you mean mobile? everything is mobile. what else would it be?” #guildchat |
| 1:50 PM | LnDDave | RT @eLearningGuild: Q7) Where do you see the mobile learning conversation going in the future? #GuildChat |
| 1:50 PM | jennyrhill | @eLearningGuild A7) more into data, more into wearables, more into performance support. Helping learners make better decisions. #guildchat |
| 1:50 PM | JD_Dillon | A7) Well considering we’re already this far behind, I can’t imagine it will speed up much in the immediate future … #GuildChat |
| 1:50 PM | MelMilloway | @JD_Dillon I agree. I think different audiences will use mobile very differently. #GuildChat |

| 1:50 PM | Learning_Dude | In corporate learning, I see the mobile conversation dragging on as leaders question whether it’s here to stay. #guildchat |
| 1:50 PM | LnDDave | A7) I see the mobile learning conversation becoming less about learning and more about supporting work and solving problems. #GuildChat |
| 1:50 PM | seanbengry | A7) Mobile learning shouldn’t be considered separate, rather, it’s just “learning”. When we get there, we’ve finally understood #GuildChat |
| 1:51 PM | WonderPix | a7) Fewer and fewer differences. Content is content, and learners need it whenever/wherever. #GuildChat |
| 1:51 PM | Learning_Dude | We don’t have non-mobile learning quite figured out. We throw training at problems. Mobile won’t solve THAT. #guildchat |

| 1:51 PM | Learning_Dude | At risk of sounding like a broken record, we need to differentiate between content accessed via mobile and mobile perf support. #guildchat |
| 1:51 PM | Mandausch | A6) Learning professionals should carefully (re-)design their content if they want to seriously use mobile learning/devices #GuildChat |
| 1:51 PM | JD_Dillon | A7) Users/tech will force the issue – we won’t have a choice but to drive content in a world dominated by mobile devices #GuildChat |
| 1:52 PM | Learning_Dude | If I need to know something right now, and I’m not at a PC…where’s the mobile solution? #guildchat |
| 1:52 PM | LnDDave | A7) I see L&D adapting to mobile being inserted in different areas of the organization. #GuildChat |
| 1:52 PM | Learning_Dude | If I’m enrolled in a course and have time at the DMV, where’s the content? #guildchat |
| 1:52 PM | willconstantine | RT @eLearningGuild: Q7) Where do you see the mobile learning conversation going in the future? #GuildChat |
| 1:52 PM | GerDriesen | Agree! “@jennyrhill: @eLearningGuild A7) more into data, wearables, performance support. Helping learners make better decisions. #guildchat” |
| 1:52 PM | weisblatt | A7) We’ll stop thinking about what mlearning is. Mobile will force us to rethink what learning is. #guildchat |
| 1:52 PM | jennyrhill | @Learning_Dude Really, all learning should be more about supporting work and solving problems- mobile will help get us there #guildchat |

| 1:53 PM | willconstantine | Q7) mobile will carry on even of the orgs don’t want to… #GuildChat |
| 1:53 PM | Learning_Dude | If I want to know it I just think it. ;) #guildchat |
| 1:53 PM | aschulze2001 | It’s not about the platform – PC or mobile. It’s about learning. Mobile is just one way. #GuildChat |
| 1:53 PM | Dan_Jacques_LD | A7) Mobile will be proactive instead or reactive, based on what you look up on Google will drive the ads you see, learning next? #GuildChat |
| 1:53 PM | britz | A7. As mlearning becomes more common and devices ubiquitous, we may just see the “m” get dropped in those conversations #GuildChat |
| 1:53 PM | willconstantine | Q7) we will get deeper into topics like UI/UX design and content management #GuildChat |
| 1:54 PM | JD_Dillon | A7) Eventually it won’t be a category anymore – just like social – will be the way things work #GuildChat |
| 1:54 PM | seanbengry | A7) as these devices become more powerful and personal, it becomes more of a conversation of “why can’t I learn here?” #GuildChat |
| 1:54 PM | ExpertusONE | Yep MT @Learning_Dude We don’t have non-mobile learning quite figured out. We throw training at problems. Mobile won’t solve THAT #guildchat |
| 1:54 PM | weisblatt | RT @Learning_Dude: One day all our brains will be connected wirelessly and the device convo will be dead; a moot point. #guildchat |
| 1:54 PM | jennyrhill | @Learning_Dude Yes! http://t.co/gtA1r7uhcM ;) #guildchat |
| 1:54 PM | aschulze2001 | @Learning_Dude Agree. I was thinking Matrix. Just plug me in. #GuildChat |
| 1:54 PM | Learning_Dude | . @jennyrhill I agree, but in organizations, especially large, it’s a steep uphill climb. #guildchat |
| 1:54 PM | spotlearning | A7) we need to train up the ID / eD Cadre to design better learning for #mobileLearning. #GuildChat |
| 1:54 PM | Learning_Dude | . @aschulze2001 Oh, don’t worry. We’ll all be wireless. #guildchat |
| 1:55 PM | seanbengry | @JD_Dillon Exactly! No “social” learning, no “m”Learning, no “e”Learning… it’ll all be learning in the context of work #GuildChat |
| 1:55 PM | Learning_Dude | RT @spotlearning: A7) we need to train up the ID / eD Cadre to design better learning for #mobileLearning. #GuildChat |
| 1:55 PM | jennyrhill | @Learning_Dude True. But knowing the direction still helps get us there (eventually). #guildchat |

| 1:55 PM | LnDDave | RT @eLearningGuild: Time is drawing short. Any final thoughts you’d like to share about today’s topic? #GuildChat |
| 1:56 PM | spotlearning | A7) also, think the conversation will shift toward supporting and evaluating experience rather than content. #GuildChat |
| 1:56 PM | Learning_Dude | . @jennyrhill That’s also true, but “the direction” is more about the bottom line than it is about “learning.” #guildchat |
| 1:56 PM | CraigTaylor74 | @britz Yes please!! #GuildChat |
| 1:56 PM | weisblatt | Mobile changes the scale, time, focus, context of consuming content. #guildchat |
