  • 31 — Ten years of the iPhone: how have smartphones changed our lives?

    Ten years after the introduction of the iconic iPhone, how are our lives different? Where is mobile learning today and where does it have the potential to go? Is “mobile learning” even the right term for what smartphones do for us?

    This week on the GoodPractice podcast: Justin, Owen and Jonny discuss whether our digital slaves will continue to revolutionise our lives or leave us all completely useless idiots after the inevitable apocalypse - countered by our usual “What I learned this week” feature!
