Mobile Learning


How effective do you think mobile learning tools are for the teaching of all four skills?

Can they serve equally well for  the development of each skill across differing proficiency levels?

(You can refer to any tool you are familiar with. )

  1. In my opinion, all four skills can be taught with mobile learning as long as the aim is properly set. One can easily use the readily available social media websites/apps, emails, push-to-talk apps(such as Zello), video conferencing (Skype), podcasting apps (itunes,podomatic) or photo/video editing tools. However, I am a bit skeptical about how to monitor or give feedback to a speaking activity done with a mobile tool such as skype. Teaching writing long texts like essays, articles can also be challenging.
