There is a lot of talk in the media about applications that run on a SmartPhones and Tablets.
Many of these applications are games or productivity tools like scheduling or notification software.
These applications run natively on the SmartPhone or Tablet - not on top of their browser.
- The Apps need to be downloaded and installed on the SmartPhone or Tablet.
- Many organizations have web courses.
- Web courses run on top of a browser.
- Learners can access a course via an organization's intranet or web site. They don't need to go to a third party site to download and install anything.
- Most eLearning courses work well on a computer but work poorly on a SmartPhone.
- Very few tests work at all on a SmartPhone.
- Most LMS's don't work with a SmartPhone or tablet (more on that later).
It's True! The world is becoming more mobile. If you want to continue to access learners including: customers, clients, prospects, employees, and partners; you need to make sure your courses work in the environment the learners are using.
