Reviews for Ubiquitous Learning
"This book taps directly into seismic shifts occurring in what it means to go about one's everyday life when access to information and ideas are so readily at hand. The contributors move well beyond the speculative to afford readers a rich range of substantive definitions and concrete examples of ubiquitous learning."
