What are the barriers to using apps and tablets on campus?
Cost - do we pay for them? Do we expect our students to pay for them?
Connectivity (the IC problem)
Quality - do we peer review apps? Medical apps - how do we make sure they are fit for purpose?
Using them on campus - Do we have the right tools?
Support - Who helps you get more from your device?
Inclusion - What about students who do not have mobile devices?
Sharing (IOS devices) not so easy to share between staff and students
