Today we are going talk about MALL and QR-codes

Nowadays mobile phone is a necessity and it's something you constantly have with you and people look at their mobile phones about 10 times an hour so then its excellent device to deliver much bite-sized learning. 

What is essential about mobile learning? Its not about device, it's about mobility of the learner that we can learn across different contexts, we can learn across different locations as we engage with different communities. 

Now focus is on the mobility of the learner and on the notion of  seamlessness of learning, how you can connect learning from formal settings to informal settings, it's about how you can harness value of context, because it's very important. 

QR-codes

What is QR-code? QR-code is method for encoding information in a graphic picture.

 ( from eng "quick response" - быстрый отклик)

What does it encode? 

• Internet address 
• Contact details
• SMS
• Geographic details 
• Texts 
• Phone numbers 

And now there is a question - How we can use QR-codes in learning ? How can it help us and make much easier the process of studying ?

I think its great thing which we can use almost everywhere in studying process. 

For instance, you can use it in your books as an addition to texts or as an additional task after texts. Also it can be used as an addition to some pictures, studying materials or use it for learning games to make the process of studying more interestings and faster! Yes, faster, when you use QR-code and  it shows  you a necessary site or something in some seconds and you save your time and time of teacher. So i think its an awesome creation and we should  use it in studying process. 

Now we will consider an equally interesting platform called Mooс

What is  Mooc? It is a Massive Open Online Course, one way of learning in a networkworld. This course has facilities, participants, different course materials. When you are in a course you are engaging with other students, sharing materials, learning something new , it allows new ideas to develop different points of views. Its free and you  shouldn't pay for it.

Hi everyone!

Today we are going to talk about WIKI, Wiki tools and how to use Wiki in education.

Wiki is a web technology used for collaborative publishing on the web. Wiki is a type of server software that allows you to work with data on a remote server on the Web. Users interact with the software through a web interface that lets them read, edit and publish content.

Wiki is used for collaborative publishing. A group of co-authors can freely add and change the content of the wiki website: rewrite texts, add new texts and images, add and link pages and more. To do so, the group needs access to the website via the Internet and proper authorization. The wiki owner can restrict editing to a group of collaborators (e. g., students or colleagues), publish to a wiki individually or open it for global editing by everyone on the web.Unlike other publishing platforms, wikis are:

• heavily based on collaboration,
• non-linear and not based on time (unlike blogs),
• are purely content-oriented (unlike conventional content management systems, that are design-driven).
There are some Free Wiki Tools: 

• Wikia offers a more modern look, has more features and a vast fan base for attracting commercially active communities — Twilight fans, healthy food fans and alike. Less suitable for educational use for incessant advertising on every page of your wiki.
• ZohoWiki provides state-of-the-art interface and functions for a modern corporate-inclined wiki. Best for tech-savvy classrooms.
• Wiki Site is a native WikiMedia-based free wiki hosting with limited features and resources.
• WikiDot offers free plans for wiki sites with advertising. Standard wiki functionality.

What i liked the most is Wikia, i like that you can create your own wiki which may connected with your interests, you can find friends, invite people and enjoy sharing information and creation.
