Slides to support a digital storytelling workshop at the MTS Awakening Possibilities Conference, 21 April 2014. Winnipeg, Manitoba. Albert Einstein said: “Play is the highest form of research.” We’re going to do some serious research into the potential of mobile devices for learning. First we’ll play. Then we’ll learn by unpacking the things we did while playing. Expect to be out of your seat and learning with others in this high impact, fun and educational session exploring practical ways mobile devices can be used to help students learn and share their learning with the world. Don’t forget to bring along a smartphone or tablet!
