Transforming Teacher Education with Mobile Technologies provides an international, comparative overview of current thinking and research in the field of mobile learning and teaching/teacher education, with case studies from Australia, Germany, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Turkey and the United Kingdom. Drawing together contributions with teachers and teacher educators engaged in a European project, this book investigates practices further afield and provides insight into research and cutting-edge pedagogical practice in teaching and teacher education using mobile learning. Students use personal technologies like their mobile phones, extensively and expect to be constantly connected and engaged in a networked world. It is imperative, therefore, that teachers keep pace with this ever-shifting landscape and this is a challenge to those in the profession and more widely to teacher education which is tasked with preparing the next generation of teachers. This volume provides some answers to these challenges, linking theory to practice and developing theoretical models. The contributors also explore possible future developments in this field using an innovative methodology associated with Future Thinking Scenario Planning (Snoek, 2004).

Reviews for Transforming Teacher Education with Mobile Technologies

"The book delivers an exceptional collection of forward looking content for positive transformation of teacher education at the time of rapid technology development around the Word. The particular focal point, the mobile technologies, is well set to make concerted impact on teachers and their practices. Mediating effects of these technologies is evident from everyday practices in the societies, and these practices, when principally integrated in education, will have strong transformation impact. The book deliver recommendations, theories, and practical case stories written by practitioners, policy-makers, experts and researchers, and powerful idea that are certain to positively shape teacher education in the contemporary times. * Daniel Churchill, Associate Professor of Teacher Education and Learning Leadership, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong * With examples of pre-service teachers using mobile technologies in robust ways — creating media as diverse as hypertexts, video documentaries, and augmented reality experiences — Kevin Burden, Amanda Naylor, and their contributors provide teacher educators with innovative ideas for contemporary methods courses, all grounded theoretically in the iPAC (personalisation, authenticity and collaboration) framework. With a clear focus on teaching and learning, this collection demonstrates that we can use smartphones for so much more than watching a video or participating in a competitive quiz. It is only through modeling this type of pedagogy in our methods courses that we can inspire the next generation of teachers to innovate in their own classrooms, and ""Transforming Teacher Education with Mobile Technologies"" provides us with many ideas for continuing to move forward. * Troy Hicks, Professor of English and Education, Central Michigan University, USA * Transforming Teacher Education With Mobile Technologies is a must-have book for all teachers, teacher educators and decision-makers interested in having a better understanding of how to make the best out of mobile technologies. Based on a Western research project and grounded in the current scientific literature, the book presents a collection of contextually rich case studies that question the challenges and opportunities of mobile technologies, while offering multiple practical ways to integrate them in diverse cultural and pedagogical settings. * Simon Collin, Professor of Education, University of Quebec, Canada *"
