VCAL Mobile Learning with the Nokia E61i


This project created mobile telephone based learning resources for VCAL students, who are young and tech-savvy, but often disengaged from traditional teaching methods. Existing print materials were adapted and converted to a suitable multimedia format, and delivered to students via Nokia E71 mobile telephones.

The engaging Manga-style graphics from the original book were colourised and animated to suit the mobile learning application. Content was broken into short learning chunks of 20 to 30 minutes duration, and activities were adapted to utilise the phone, eg uploading photographs of a project to a class WIKI.
