Study on the use of mobile devices in schools: the case of Greece

Abstract

This paper presents a reflection on the use of mobile technologies in the classroom in Greece, based on a review of relevant literature, PhD thesis and the case of the 1st Lyceum of Rhodes. Despite several developments, m-learning is far from being part of everyday educational practice. This is in accordance to the level of academic research on m-learning in Greece. Few PhD dissertations focus on mobile learning. However, most Greek universities have postgraduate programs on the use of ICT in education and mobile learning is part of their curriculum, giving hope for the future.
