During the Fall of 2003, the East Carolina University Center for Wireless and Mobile Computing and Sprint PCS/Airgate Communications implemented a project to evaluate the potential of 3G smart phone/handheld computers (3GCD’s) for mobile learning. The first environment that was selected for testing this technology involved on-campus freshman Teaching Fellows in the College of Education. In the spring of 2004, the project was expanded to evaluate the use of the devices with twenty-four students taking an online class in Business, Career, and Technical Education. This article will share information on of the use of 3GCD’s with online students.
