Handheld Learning: Mobile Technologies in Teaching and Learning
Handheld Learning promotes the use of mobile technologies and mobility to enable transformational improvements in teaching and learning through conferences, online knowledge sharing, consulting, teacher training and the provision of innovative software.
Handheld Learning was formed in 2004 by Graham Brown-Martin who had envisaged the use of mobile computing devices for learning by children since the mid-1980’s when one of his companies was awarded a grant to develop one. The active shareholders include the former Chairman of Sony Europe and President of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, Chris Deering, Sega Europe’s former Chairman and deputy Managing Director, Frank Herman and Virgin Interactive Entertainments former President, Tim Chaney.
“Our vision is simple: Within the next 5 years every learner will have access to a mobile digital companion that may be used as a powerful learning tool.”
