Spaced learning through #mobile apps work wonderfully

Mobile learning is an integral part of any contemporary training strategy ... or should be by now. The toughest challenge however is to build a toolkit of mLearning options that cater to the variety of learning that needs to be done in an institution/corporation.

In the last couple of weeks I have been looking at ways to offer solutions for spaced learning. An options that allows your learners to stay up-to-date with specific content that must be delivered multiple times for immediate memorization.

For those not sure about the spaced learning effect, I embedded a graph provided by Retenda who rock in spaced learning http://www.retenda.com/ and how their spaced reminders effected retention.

A classroom option, before giving the mobile option
Before sharing the mobile option, it makes sense to understand the complete dynamic of the principle of spaced learning. In classrooms you can create a perfect setting to get spaced learning going. A wonderful synthesis with lots of information is shared here by the Innovation Unit of the Monkseaton High School. They have put together a publication outlining all the steps to integrate spaced learning with inquiry based learning for optimal memory results.

The spaced learning mobile apps
Now this becomes more difficult with learners in a corporate setting, as you do not have that many face-to-face moments... but this is where the mLearning options come in. With these mobile options you can deliver the content that needs to be memorized through mobile apps, with algorithms that enable those questions that were not answered correctly (yet) to be repeated for that particular user.
It is a great way to provide any content that is cross institutional/corporate like for instance first aid, or security guidelines, or new guidelines overall.

The app below offers a strong desktop and simplified mobile option:

The next one's is an open source spaced learning option which is cross platform:

It takes some time to get things organized, but it is well worth integrating it in your overall mLearning.

  8. Much like Safari, the Camera app, the App Store and i - Pod, Game Center has no option to be deleted when editing your apps.
    It combines RPG elements and strategy for a very
    interesting game where you must stop the rows of pirates ship from making their way down the river.
    The most unique thing about Ouya is that it is said to

  9. This is more important than ever in a world where there are
    dozens of different audio formats. They also apparently believe that
    their customers who like a particular song they hear on the radio,
    are likely to purchase that song, which could add to downloads from i - Tunes.
