Mobile Media Learning captures the stories of fifteen writers’ explorations with using mobile devices to amplify their teaching and learning. Writers share work in classrooms, parks, museums, and workshops where the central learning activity is moving around spaces. Using GPS enabled mobile phones, learners can find digital characters, objects, and quests to drive experiences.

The value of this book is the chance to not only hear striking stories of design, but to think alongside early adopters of a truly disruptive use of technology for learning.
