Mobile technology and its influences are growing at warp speed.
In 2013 there are almost as many mobile subscriptions as people in the world.

Learning with Mobile millenials
Born in 1995, they do not remember a world without social media.
3 years old – Google changes the way we search the web.
4 years old – Netflix begins digitally delivering movies and TV shows.
6 years old – The iPod hits the market and changes the way the world listened to music.
7 years old – American Idol airs and “live voting” by mobile device becomes mainstream
8 years old – Tom launches Myspace, and social media begins the climb to world domination..
9 years old – The first episode of Lost hits the airwaves. Facebook is born.
10 years old – Youtube adds a whole new element to searching the web.
11 years old – Twitter – and 140 characters – becomes popular.
12 years old – The iPhone took the world by storm. (2008)
.......the rest, as they say, is history

“We have a romantic attachment to skills from the past. Longhand multiplication of numbers using paper and pencil is considered a worthy intellectual achievement. Using a mobile phone to multiply is not.
But to the people who invented it, longhand multiplication was just a convenient technology.”
Sugata Mitra is professor of educational technology at Newcastle University, and the winner of the $1m TED Prize 2013. He devised the Hole in the Wall experiment, where a computer was embedded in a wall in a slum in Delhi for children to use freely.
BIGA information world
We live in a connected world. Nearly two billion people connect to the internet, share information and communicate over blogs, Wikis, social networks and a host of other media.
The question is.....?
How should technology impact the way we learn and the way we work?

More content, streams of data, topic structures, (theoretically) better quality - all of these in
online environments
require an equivalent shift in our online capabilities.
1. Find the right thing2. Get the best summary3. Go broader and deeper
What should we do...?
LIFESTREAMSToday, our view of cyberspace is shaped by a 20-year-old metaphor in which files are documents, documents are organized into folders, and all are littered around the flatland known as the desktop. Lifestreams takes a completely different approach: instead of organizing by space, it organizes by time. It is a diary rather than a desktop.

The End of the Web, Search, and Computer as We Know It

This LIFESTREAM — a heterogeneous, content-searchable, real-time messaging stream — arrived in the form of blog posts and RSS feeds, Twitter and other chatstreams, and Facebook walls and timelines.
David GelernterFebruary 2013
Today, the most important function of the internet is to deliver the latest information, to tell us what’s happening right now. Whether tweet or timeline, all are time-ordered streams designed to tell you what’s new.

Your information flow might be so last century...

It’s Monday morning, and as I sit down for my morning cup of tea and toast, I open my iPhone to see what’s in my email, and what items in my calendar will need my attention.
In just a couple of minutes of my twitter feed (never mind all the hours I was asleep) I found:
• Founders Online – a new online History resources from the US
• The name of a Dr Who episode I must rewatch• Google’s efforts to build a system to help eradicate Child Porn
on the web• A good post about the new learning organisation• A commentary article from the ABC that asks if Big Data is all
that it’s cracked up to be• A post speculating on MOOCs as slowly deflating bubbles• A little piece of historical memorabilia about to happen – last
telegram in the world• A new Project Tomorrow research report which confirms that
teachers’ unsophisticated use of tech is creating the second level digital divide

Simply using the latest 1-to-1 device, or the latest website, or the latest app is not the solution either, although these shiny new toys can provide an illusion of advancement
and success.
