​Twenty-one participants attended a half day workshop held at the annual m-Learn conference in Delft, focused on designing innovative mobile learning pedagogies. The workshop was run by Kevin Burden and Matthew Kearney and was also attended by Ton Koenrad and Jeroen Bottema, projects members from the DEIMP team.  Participants included academics from across the world including China, Asia, Africa and the USA. The workshop was also attended by the editor of the International Mobile and Blended Learning Journal, David Parsons, who briefly explained the process of submission for the special edition on Innovation in Mobile Learning which the project team are editing.

Ray Kirtley and Kevin Burden attended the 9th EFL conference in Reading, UK and presented their Mobile Learning in Thailand project. Although the project took place in December 2017, the outcomes with regard to mobile learning, are still relevant today and are particularly important for fieldwork. This is a great conference to attend and is very relevant for anybody interested in mobile learning in non formal settings. Strongly recommended.  #deimp #2019EFL

Today colleagues from the DEIMP team (Professor Kevion Burden; Professor Sandy Schuck and Professor Peter Aubusson) are attending the International Conference on Education and Learning (ICEL) in Osaka, Japan to present the latest findings and research from the DEIMP paper. Our paper is entitled: Developing and Evaluating Innovative Mobile Pedagogies: The DEIMP Project. You can find the abstract for the paper here; http://icel2019.gaics.org/site/userdata/1254/file/Conference%20Program%20of%20ICEL%202019%20Osaka.pdf

2019-2020 is the final year of the DEIMP project and during this period of time the project will be running a number of events to publicise, disseminate and widen the impact of the project. These include an international learning and training workshop in Cyprus in March/April, 2020, a workshop at the prestigious MITE conference in Galway in May 2020, and a series of one day dissemination conferences (Multiplier events) held across Europe and in Australia between August-October 2019. You can find out more about all of these events in the project website or click on the links below. We look forward to meeting you at them:

Professor Burden (UK) and Associate Professor Matthew Kearney (Australia) are due to run a half day workshop at the 15th International Conference on Mobile Learning in Delft on 16th September, 2019. The workshop will focus on innovation in mobile learning and will build on the work of the DEIMP project over the past two years.

In July, 2019 Professor Burden was invited to give a keynote presentation on the DEIMP project at the  8th International Workshop on Learning Technology for Education Challenges (LTEC) conference, held at the University of Salamanca in Zamora, Spain. The presentation was attended by over 150 researchers and academics from universities around the world including Taiwan, China, Chile, Australia, Argentina, and Europe itself. In the presentation Professor Burden explored how the use of futures research methodologies, the subject of a recent book written by himself and colleagues in the University of Technology Sydney and the University of Cambridge (REF), can be used to postulate alternative learning scenarios for innovative mobile learning.
