Creating Time and Responsive Dimensions in Science with Mobile Technology
Abstract
Mobile learning (mlearning) is now used extensively in higher education (HE) (El-Hussain & Cronje, 2010). The use of this technology, most commonly represented by smartphones (Ofcom, 2015), allows approaches such as the flipped classroom or ‘flipping’ to be facilitated (Bishop & Verleger, 2013). Content is recorded and made available online before class through a mobile device (Bergman & Sams, 2012), leaving face-to-face sessions free for other activities that support learning. The use of the flipped approach has been shown to have a range of positive impacts on students (Smith, Brown, Purnell & Martin, 2015; Witton, 2016).Publisher
