As I am writing a book chapter on mobile learning I thought I would discuss an interesting topic that has come up in my research: what is the difference between mLearning and eLearning since both mobile devices and computers can access materials and content through the internet? From what I have found thus far, there are a few differences that separate the two:<\/p>\n

1. On the go access – mobile phones can be accessed anywhere when you actually need the information. For instance, if you need the ingredients for a recipe at the grocery store you could look them up<\/p>\n

2. Immediate access\/responses – You can text someone and get an immediate response
\n
\n3. Portability – You can take mobile devices anywhere as they fit into your pocket or purse
\n
\n4. No boot time – mobile phones and other portable devices such as ipods simply just turn on, they do not boot up like computers or laptops\/netbooks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
