Similarly, when I wrote my books on games and mobile, I focused on the cognitive impacts. On a side note, I want to encourage you to consider my workshop at DevLearn on Make It Meaningful, a full day exploring how we make learning experiences deeply engaging (adding to effectiveness). So, how’s your cognitive perspective?

It’s the first in the region, and if you’re in the neighborhood it should be a great way to get steeped in mobile. It complements my recent post on content and data. Would welcome seeing you there.

John Medina gave the closing keynote at DevLearn, based upon his book Brain Rules. So, repeat if you need it to stick (a great opportunity for mobile learning), and do get exercise for your own health, and maybe have an organizational incentive as well! He covered two of his 12 rules, on memory, and on exercise.

As I mentioned in my bit on the general stage at mLearnCon, mobile is the fastest-growing giant industry in history (quoting Tomi Ahonen ), reaching a billion dollars in the shortest time ever. And my mobile learning strategy workshop was so popular at mLearnCon that we’re running it again at DevLearn !

There’s a social networking site for DevLearn, and I’ve created a group for this session. Of course, you’re welcome to comment here, too.

In the course of the past month, I’ve attended (and spoken at) 4 conferences: DevLearn, WCET, VSS, and Online Educa. Each was from a different area: DevLearn is mostly corporate, WCET is largely higher ed, VSS is mostly K12, and Online Educa is more academic (and European). I’m pleased to see that mobile and social are taking off.

My short recommendations: Developers need to start thinking about instrumenting everything. Everything people touch should report out on their activity.

Several technologies are poised to cross the chasm: social tools, mobile technologies, and virtual worlds. Mobile has similarly really hit the mainstream, with both reasonable and cheap (read: free) ways to develop mobile apps (cf Richard Clark & my presentation at the last DevLearn), and a wide variety of opportunities.

The topics are similarly spread to be as interesting as the speakers, with user-generated content, rapid elearning, mobile, games/simulations, and more. I’m looking forward to it. I was also reflecting about what makes a good conference.

I pitched an idea that I’ve found exciting to the eLearning Guild, and they gave me the opportunity to present it at their DevLearn conference. Technologically, we have mobile technologies, social technologies, and semantic technologies. The fact that spaced learning is more effective than massed practice is also relevant.

One of the ways I’ve been thinking about the role mobile can play in design is thinking about how our brains work, and don’t. It came out of both mobile and the recent cognitive science for learning workshop I gave at the recent DevLearn.
