I have been involved with a number of mobile projects over the last year or so, including a project for Youth at Risk and Media & Communications.

The projects were successful for a number of reasons and risks had to be managed (some of which weren't managed all that effectively - hindsight is a magnficent attribute!)

Whilst we are not actively implementing mobile technologies for learning, some tasks are being undertaken by teaching staff, such as CLAMs on PDA. It will be great to investigate more learning applications via mobile devices. Afterall, mobile devices are stuck to the hips of our students, so why not utilise them for educational gain!

In all this, I have tried Twitter, seem to be missing the context (as well as the content) and have been unable to get the thing off the ground! Look forward to hearing more about it....
