Ubiquitous Learning and Instructional Technologies MOOC’s Updates

LEARNING DEVICES IN THE ERA

An example of social learning supported by ubiquitous learning devices is the use of mobile apps and cloud-based collaboration tools in education. For instance, platforms like Google Classroom, Microsoft Teams, and Edmodo enable students to engage in real-time discussions, share resources, and collaborate on group projects regardless of their location. These tools support Vygotsky’s social constructivist theory, where learning occurs through interaction with peers and mentors. Mobile devices allow students to access learning materials anytime, participate in peer reviews, and receive instant feedback from teachers, fostering a more connected and continuous learning experience. Additionally, features like video conferencing and discussion boards enhance engagement and ensure that learning is not confined to traditional classroom settings, making education more flexible and inclusive.
