Tutaleni I. Asino – Page 3 of 12 – Welcome to my ideas spaces. Here I post on things I am thinking about, reading, writing and researching. Often these are unfiltered thoughts and works in progress. In other words, my thoughts & ideas are perpetually under construction. Some are posted quickly and will probably have spelling and grammatical errors (sorry about that)….try to look beyond that and lets engage. My areas of research, writing & presentations revolve around diffusion of innovations in teaching and learning, Mobile Learning, Design for Mobile Devices, Indigenous knowledge, Comparative International Education, and the role of culture in the development and evaluation of learning technologies.
