Mobile Learning and the Connected Campus

Mobile technology is shaping the way we live, work and learn at ACU. Since education can now take place in the classroom or virtually anywhere, we are committed to exploring mobile learning technology that makes sense for our students and their future.

In the fall of 2008, ACU became the first university to distribute Apple iPhones and iPod Touches to the incoming freshman class, allowing us to explore a new vision for mobile learning. Now all freshmen and their teachers are able to integrate technology and learning both in and out of the classroom. The initiative began in the fall with the introduction of a portal, Mobile ACU , to help connect students to the campus through maps, news and events, and campus directories. Mobile ACU includes integration with campus email and file systems as well as in-class surveys and polls. For more information, take a look at the ACU Mobile podcasts to begin exploring the possibilities.
