The Phyrtual Innovation Gym at the Rome Città Educativa is hosting the 4th meeting of European Project MLearn - Training Teachers to Use Mobile (handheld) Technologies within Mainstream School Education.
While the six project partners - Titan Partnership Ltd (UK) - (Coordinator) Action Synergy S.A. (Greece) FMD - Fondazione Mondo Digitale (Italy) CPIP - Centrul pentru Promovarea Invatarii Permanente (Romania) Hamstead Hall Community Learning Centre (UK) Bloemcampschool (Netherlands) – are at work, we collected various experiences on the use of mobile technology for teaching and learning. In particular, the use of tablets in the classroom is particularly efficient with special needs students, whilst improving results in general for all students. Indeed, the observed effects are excellent both in terms of student motivation and scholastic results.
