#astd #training #hr #shrm
One of the great things I love about Twitter is connecting with folks all over the world as well as other industries. Since I've now entered the arena of mobile learning-training with the app The 1% Edge Portable Coach, it's prompted my curiosity about how mobile learning is being leveraged in the education field. So many of my Tweeples are in education.

Here is a resource for tools being used in the classroom via mobile devices....definitely some cross over tools for corporate!

10 Sites to use with Mobile Phones in Education

The use of mobile technology has opened up a whole new world in education.  Terms like BYOD (bring your own device) is a common place occurrence.  These devices has allowed educators and students to learn, teach, and study in a whole new way.  Learning is no longer limited to the classroom and can occur in real-time almost anywhere.

I've decided to list my favorite sites that can be used w/ mobile phones for educational purposes.

This list is in alphabetical order.

1. Audioboo - A great site w/ mobile apps for all platforms, for recording one's voice and then embedding it into a site/blog.
2. Cel.ly - Is an instant mobile network for connecting people and tracking topics.  Also, a great way to manage cell phones from a web environment.
3. ClassPager - CP takes the classroom "clicker" to the next level through the use of text messaging, polling, Q/A, and the ability to update students/parents at any time.
4. ClassParrot - A safe and simple way to text students.  This is a great way to send class reminders, updates, and allow for parents to receive texts too.
5. gText - A great site for free group texting.  A user can send texts, files, photos, and more.
6. SnappSchool - This is a great site to engage parents for free w/ SS messenger.  Also, a user can send class wide updates by text message or email straight from their phone.
7. StudyBlue - A great way to study online flashcards, quizzes, or study guides.  Also, there is a free mobile app for SB for all platforms.
8. StudyBoost - A great way to study on a cell phone through text messaging and SMS.
9. TXTNLRN - A innovative site for teaching and learning through text messaging.  Everything associated w/ this site such as signing up for a class is all done through the use of texting.
10. Wiffiti - This is a great site that allows users from a cell phone to send texts to a display or screen.  A new version w/ more features is coming soon.
