Overview
• introduction, opportunities and challenges; Blackboard Mobile;
• UTL mobile, mobile-friendly library reference services & course data
• Google Android + Student Perspective• iPhone and Applications• UT Scarborough Demo App
![Page 3: Mobile Learning Sarah Forbes [sforbes@utsc.utoronto.ca] Perry Sheppard [psheppard@utsc.utoronto.ca] Faiz Visram [fvisram@utsc.utoronto.ca] Brian Sutherland](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d3b3/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What is m-learning?• Device centric – (alternative computing
platforms)– Blackberry; iPod/iPhone/iPad;Google Android– Playstation/X-Box; Tablet– Alternative screen size– Augmented sensing:, GPS, compass, accelerometer,
camera, gestural (haptic) interface– Extended telephony (cell, skype)
• User centric – internet everywhere, so more just-in-time, situated learning (the teachable moment!)

Opportunities• Explore learning domains in new ways, leveraging prior
experience with cell phones• Interact with key university services (library and
research services, learning management system, registrar)
• Wayfinding using GPS + compass• Auto filtering and superimpose information using
environmental contextual cues (GPS + compass + camera)
• Integration of disparate data sources through web services, e.g. real time sat nav stats for TTC through the open data initiative

Challenges• Do the benefits of mobile computing outweigh
the institutional effort of providing parallel, alternate services? e.g. fee cut vs. mobile service– A. Sometimes mobile service makes regular academic
services work more efficiently. – B. Convenience/cool factor.
• Do internet systems provide the same level of functionality as mobile applications?– A. Not always, but sometimes they provide additional
functionality.

Challenges (cont’d)
• How do we support students and Faculty, when there are so many devices, applications and systems?– A. With some difficulty and imagination.– B. Trust in time better standards will emerge in mobile
devices, just like the evolution of web browsers. – C. Over time websites will auto-adjust for mobile devices,
as the library and ref works sites do.– D. Better sharing of support information. (user forums,
wikis, etc.)

Blackboard Mobile
• Under review…• Can the database support the load of this
additional system?• How can the help desks support the users of
‘Blackboard Mobile’• Blackboard university licensing comes up for
review in 1-2 years

• Real-time integration of GPS+compass+camera+web services
• Superimpose 3D building models on view of a building site so you can walk around them
• [ Easiest to Show You ]:• [ Canadian Hospitals Layar ]

UT Scarborough App
• Links to 20-30 points of interest on campus• Each point of interest can have actions, such as a dial
number button, browse website button, play video, play audio, etc.
• Current information can be superimposed via connections to live data sources, e.g. current room schedule, ETA of next TTC bus, etc.
• Some duplication of UTMobile app content
• Potential superposition of new buildings
