Mobility Emerges as the Next Wave of K-12 Education Innovation

The most exciting aspect of mobility tools in K-12 is the opportunity for schools to liberate young learners from the limitations of the classroom. Students no longer need to be tethered to wired desktops or computer labs. In a wireless environment, every site on a campus lends itself to the computing and communication capabilities that can enable, enrich and personalize the learning experience. Mobility is also tied to the goal of 1-to-1 computing, where students have their own computers.
A recent report produced by the Sesame Workshop urges school IT leaders to embrace the power and value of mobile technology as a force for enhanced learning. “Mobile devices are part of the fabric of children’s lives today: They are here to stay,” states Michael H.
