The Domino Effect: One School's Digital Strategy

The potential impact mobile computing can have on higher education is apparent, but numerous barriers also exist that can significantly impede change.

The strategy involves making available many mobile offerings, such as access to digital textbooks, to encourage digital content adoption. We will discuss the program's implementation, faculty reaction to it, and future plans.
