Cutting edge technology offered by Walden allows students to access coursework through handheld mobile devices Walden University today unveiled MobileLearn(TM), a new tool for online course-content delivery that allows students to access course materials in a way that best fits their own learning styles. MobileLearn is part of Walden's ongoing effort to make its courses as adaptable and accessible as possible, so students can maximize their learning outcomes. Students can watch course videos and field-experience simulations, read assigned texts, and listen to lectures and guest speakers. MobileLearn also allows students to download and access content using personal mobile devices, such as smartphones and MP3 players "Walden is always looking for ways to use technology to make it easier to access and successfully complete our degree programs," said Jonathan Kaplan, president of Walden University. "We realize that each student has his or her own learning styles, and we believe meeting those needs is a key factor in helping students achieve deeper understanding and retention of knowledge. MobileLearn allows students to interact with content in a way that best fits their individual learning preferences and lifestyles." Press Release link
