MALL

Hi, guys. Glad to see again. Wanna know about MALL? I'd like introduce it to u.

So... let's begin.

M-learning or mobile learning is "learning across multiple contexts, through social and content interactions, using personal electronic devices. A form of distance education, m-learners use mobile device educational technology at their time convenience.

M-learning technologies include handheld computers, MP3 players, notebooks, mobile phones and tablets. M-learning focuses on the mobility of the learner, interacting with portable technologies. Using mobile tools for creating learning aids and materials becomes an important part of informal learning.

There're a lot of advantages. Here some of it:

1) Independent of location&time

2)Adaptive learning

3)Progress tracking

4)Up to date content

5)Availability

MOOC

MOOC

Salute! It's a rainy Friday and i wanna share some MOOC w-sites with you!)
Few famous ones:
1)http://edx.org/
2)Canvas.net
3)Coursera.org

My favorite is canvas.net because there u can easy find free courses on the any theme u need.
I choose "Communication in Virtual and Mobile work".

It's provides some objectives like:

• To acquire the new kinds of communication skills needed for working in multicultural, globalized companies using virtual and mobile communication tools such as shared platforms, instant messaging, conferencing, email and social networks on a regular basis.
• To become familiar with the different registers (formal and informal) used in virtual and mobile communication (both spoken and written) and use the models provided for real communication in the workplace.
• o raise awareness of different types and levels of culture and address the benefits and challenges of working in multicultural teams whilst developing strategies for carrying out successful communication applying digital skills.

 The duration of the course is 12 weeks. At the end u'll get certificate or badge.

 I can recommend this course for: 

1) individual students wishing to improve their competences in business communication in an international virtual environment with a special focus on handling intercultural communication skills;
2) people currently in working life who would like to upgrade their skills, gain confidence and become aware of possibilities and challenges in communicating in online business environments;
 3) teacher-led groups, with extra practice activities to be carried out in the classroom.

Wiki

Here we are! Last seminar we've learned about Wiki! It's one of the useful tools I've ever seen! And there a lot of tools what can help u in education.

Wiki sites can be:

1) Encyclopedias 

2) Corporate wikis are used to train new employees and harness the power of corporate synergy

3) Fan wiki sites are sites dedicated to specific field that excites a group of people 

4) Educational wikis are mainly collective research projects. Focused around focused-oriented issues, these projects are typically developed by students and moderated by their teachers.

FREE WIKI TOOLS

• Wikispaces proves to be one of the best, highly reliable, easy to use and intuitive free wiki platforms to use as your wiki platform. With at least 100 MB of file storage space, it can prove sufficient for most academic needs of a small group. Recent classroom-oriented updates makes Wikispates your top choice for classroom wiki use.
• Wikia offers a more modern look, has more features and a vast fan base for attracting commercially active communities — Twilight fans, healthy food fans and alike. Less suitable for educational use for incessant advertising on every page of your wiki.
• ZohoWiki provides state-of-the-art interface and functions for a modern corporate-inclined wiki. Best for tech-savvy classrooms.
• Wiki Site is a native WikiMedia-based free wiki hosting with limited features and resources.
• WikiDot offers free plans for wiki sites with advertising. Standard wiki functionality.

I use Wiki services in my everyday life. My favorite are Wikipedia becuse it helps me in study or just to know some things and Wikia because there is a lot of interesting staff concerning movies, games, TV-shows etc.

gOOgle Services

To know about google services we have to know what google is! 

So lemme tell u about google.

Originally known as BackRub, Google is a search engine that started development in 1996 by Sergey Brin and Larry Page as a research project at Stanford University to find files on the Internet. Larry and Sergey later decided the name of their search engine needed to change and decide upon Google, which is inspired from the term googol.

And now there are a lot of gOOgle Services like:

• Android - The most widely used operating system for smartphones.
• Blogger - View and create a personal blog.
• Chromebook - Laptop using the Google ChromeOS.
• ChromeOS - Operating system developed by Google for laptop and portable computers.
• Gmail - Free online e-mail service with over 1 GB of storage and the best Spamprotection available.
• Google+ - Google social networking site.
• Google AdSense - A service that pays website publishers or blog developers to show advertisements on their site.
• Google AdWords - Service that enables users to pay to advertise on the Google search engine and other websites using Google AdSense.
• Google Alerts - Create alert text messages sent to an e-mail address each day or as it happens of web searches, news searches, etc.
• Google Allo - A mobile instant messaging app developed for Android and iOS to exchange messages, images, files, and videos.
• Google Analytics - Google Analytics allows anyone with their own domain to monitor and create reports of visitors to their website.
• Google App Engine - A service that provides users the ability to create scalable web services that use Google's resources.
• Google Books - Another fantastic service from Google that contains hundreds of thousands of books that can be searched.
• Google Calendar - A way to organize your schedule, synchronize, and share events with your friends.
• Google Chrome - The most popular desktop Internet browser.
