Mobile learning, sometimes called M-learning, is the idea of using mobile technologies to enhance the learning experience. Mobile phones, PDAs, Pocket PCs and the Internet can be blended to engage and motivate learners, any time and anywhere.
M-learning offers a powerful and practical solution to many learning and training challenges, such as:
-
in collaborative projects and fieldwork
-
as a classroom alternative to books or computers
-
where learners are widely dispersed
-
to engage current learners with knowledge of past experts
-
for ‘just-in-time’ employee training
|
- Overcoming knowledge loss due to retiring workforce and normal attrition (i.e. "Y2Grey", "Great Crew Change")
By implementing IntelaTrac and its mobile functionality, companies can quickly and easily provide Mobile "on-the-job" (OTJ) learning to bridge the shortcomings of traditional training. By providing information to workers on demand, companies can be assured that issues are resolved safely, and in a timely manner.
