Thanks go to my friend and colleague Tyler Wall for passing on this interesting story:
Nairobi School of Theology (NIST-IL) is using a mobile phone application called mLearning to allow students in the Leadership Training for Christian Leaders program to work on their courses from their mobile phones. NIST-IL has conducted two pilot studies of their mLearning program and found that mobile students had a higher completion that their face2face peers in the control group. Many face2face students busy schedules and heavy traffic prevented them from attending lectures and completing the required exams.
