Mobile Learning Network (MoLeNET)

The Mobile Learning Network (MoLeNET) is a unique collaborative approach to encouraging, supporting, expanding and promoting mobile learning.

It is 'certainly the UK’s, and probably the world’s, largest and most diverse implementation of mobile learning. 115 colleges and 29 schools are, or have been, involved in MoLeNET. Approximately 10,000 learners were involved in 2007/08 and around 20,000 learners will have been involved by the end of the 2008/09 academic year together with more than 4,000 staff.'

The LSN and consortia led by Further Education colleges have together invested over £12 million in MoLeNET. Tribal has been involved with MoLeNET (the Mobile Learning Network) from the very beginning, many of the successful MoLeNET projects have included Tribal’s MyLearning author and the SMS Quiz author.
