information gathering and sharing it can also promote innovative teaching methods such as cooperative learning (Lan, Sung,& Chang, 2007; Roschelle et al., 2010), exploratory learning outside the classroom (Liu, Lin, Tsai, & Paas, 2012), and gamebased learning (Klopfer, Sheldon, Perry, & Chen, 2012). Therefore, mobile technologies have great potential for facilitating
more innovative educational methods. Simultaneously, these patterns in educational methods will likely not only help subject content learning, but may also facilitate the development of communication, problem-solving, creativity, and other
high-level skills among students (Warschauer, 2007).
