Convenience and cost are all the more important to drive any time, any place learning supported by cloud solutions, smartphone and tablets. This comes with an enormous impact on how many of us think of training and education.

How hot is Mobile Learning?
With almost perfected technology within smartphones and transformed broadcasting, we're stepping ahead for the mobile learning episode. The very affordable price of tablets is actually another example of where the learning market will be in next couple of years. The Indian Government launched Aakash for only $35, famously called as world's most affordable tablet and allocated about $150M in Union Budget 2012-2013.
The new eLearning development will follow 'less is more' strategy to deliver to the point content. The Instructional designers will have to consider the limitations of screen sizes, memory capacity, battery life and usability in new learning designs for mobile learning.
There is a renewed obvious energy in mastering smartphone marketplace with increasing acceptance of mobiles and tablets. In spite of the knocking potential for business, is mobile learning actually a movement to watch in 2012.
Internet is undoubtedly accessed by a substantial group of users through their cell phones. Now, if you include the tablet users also then the actual number will probably be sizeable not to mention growing every single day. The professional businesses will have to prepare for upcoming market potential and start providing some sort of smartphone learning to make a real market of their own. In several instances the client has no idea of his requirement plus the benefits of the solution offered by the e-Learning training provider.
When REDTRAY delivered the first mobile learning module to Amex along with interactive eLearning, they immediately recognized the benefits. Most of the times decision makers follow the advices offered by various articles, colleagues, so called experts and learning providers which may not necessarily be the right way of looking at it. Unless you really experience one of the modules delivered by a learning provider who really understands your need, you can't make a judgment just based on word of mouth. Well! you can but you don't know if it is the right decision for your organization.
You can't miss the added taste of flexibility with mobile learning. While travelling from Paddington to Bath in the late evening almost everyone is doing something mostly on their smartphone. There are unlimited such opportunities exist which can be tapped in a more creative way. People are getting used to of accessing information off the clock and on their own terms. The aim should be to create mobile friendly learning content that can bring greater flexibility to remote workers in corporate training.
There is a trend of mobile revolution being adopted in formal business trainings and by some higher education institutions. Learning Technologies Show, Olympia, London Conducted live at REDTRAY's Cloud Lounge throughout the show, the REDTRAY Fast50 delivers the freshest thinking available anywhere at UK. New insights and opinion are gathered from 50 show visitors at random, analysed and published immediately. On the whole 29% say they may bring tablets or iPads into the learning mix without having any firm plans as yet.
The iPad has changed the learning approach and has sold well but couldn't make a big dent on workforce however some experts consider this as just a beginning. Apple's strategy of not completely supporting Flash when about 75% of the available video uses the same format may not go well. Other tablet manufacturers are planning to support Flash and you will notice the new entrants and changing technologies going forward. There is a new stream of electronic readers to change the game and the downloadable versions are getting popular irrespective of the fact that I personally like to read books in hard copy.
It will be interesting to keep an eye on exactly how businesses implement mobile learning throughout 2012 and ahead.
