Abstract

The paper provides insight into how faculty and staff at Boise State University have approached the challenge of mobile technology integration into educational endeavors across campus. The case presented describes the rationale behind a multi-faceted integration – one that allows for many types of expertise and diverse contexts. The context of the campus is provided along with examples of projects, goals for the Mobile Learning Initiative (MLI), and data highlights from faculty and student surveys. To conclude, a number of “lessons learned” are shared along with current and future directions of the MLI.
