UNESCO Mobile Learning Week starts in Paris

This week is UNESCO’s first Mobile Learning Week, which is being held in the group’s Paris HQ in partnership with Nokia.

UNESCO - the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation - has invited around 200 government officials, industry experts and practitioners to discuss how mobile technologies can transform education.

Although around 90% of the world’s population now has access to mobile phones, with many areas introducing local initiatives, UNESCO says there are very few national policies directly related to mobile phones and learning. It plans to release its Guidelines on Mobile Learning Policy in late 2012.

Predictions for 2016: Network Function Virtualisation, 4G throttling and video calling

Mark Windle, head of marketing at OpenCloud, predicts that this year’s reduction in the number of traditional telecoms operators in some countries will provide an opportunity for other operators to innovate and capture market share in 2016.

He says next year will be a year of rapid change for telecoms… whether it’s MVNO disruption, competitive tariff pricing or simply defence from the ‘dark art’ of hacking.

Kapture review: the audio-recording wristband

Kapture review: the audio-recording wristband

A 'recording watch' that links to your smartphone

Mark Bridge writes:

The most memorable moments in life often go unrecorded. You don't have your camera in your hands. Your finger is still hovering over the 'pause' button on your audio recorder. Or you were simply too busy experiencing whatever was happening. It's all about the one that got away.

That's where Kapture can help.

Making mobile websites work better

Making mobile websites work better

Device detection and responsive design explained

Mark Bridge writes:

James Rosewell shows me a colourful roll of paper that's the width of an iPhone but well over three metres long. When I look closer, I can see it's a printed copy of the Wall Street Journal's mobile website. That's a lot of scrolling to do... and a pretty unfriendly user experience for anyone reading the news online. Why does it work so badly?
