Use of mobile devices in a primary school

What is it about?

A case study of the implementation of iPod Touches on a 1:1 basis in a Scottish primary school. It focuses on teachers’ expectations and the realisation (or otherwise) of these expectations. Findings suggest that the iPods offered opportunities for resource provision, interactive learning and extension activities.

Why is it important?

Found that the development of teacher confidence with mobile devices can be a long term challenge. Implementation is not necessarily a linear process of moving from assimilation to accommodation, both phases may take place at the same time.
