摘要
The group discussion will actively involve participants in an exploration of innovative Mobile App Technology (MAT) as a tool to support teaching and learning, and as a method to bridge the gap between formal and informal learning in the 21st century. Participants will discuss MAT and its ability to empower informal learning. Unresolved questions emerging from the scholarly and practitioner communities will be raised, and a variety of mobile apps developed to support teaching and learning will be introduced and discussed. The possibility of a badge reward system that can be implemented to reward teachers who integrate MAT technology for informal learning will also be discussed and argued.
