- PublikationMobile phones to facilitate connected social learning and work-based practices in marginalized settings. Insights from a research project in rural South Africa(2014) Pimmer, Christoph; Linxen, Sebastian; Chipps, Jennifer; Brysiewicz, Petra; Gröhbiel, Urs; Walters, FionaThis paper outlines the findings of a research project intended to facilitate the learning of health professionals across work-based and formal learning contexts by means of mobile technology. The focus of the educational approach was on the use of digital mobile media, and particularly mobile networking technologies to support social learning practices of professionals, i.e., nurses, in marginalized settings in rural South Africa. The overall project was informed by previous studies from marginalized contexts that pointed to the potential of mobile phones and mobile social networking technologies as a means to facilitate the learners engagement with explicit forms of educational content as well as to allow for their extended participation in professional, work-based communities (Kolko, Rose, & Johnson, 2007; Pimmer, Linxen, & Gröhbiel, 2012; Pimmer, Linxen, Gröhbiel, Jha, & Burg, 2013).04B - Beitrag Konferenzschrift
- PublikationInformal mobile learning in nurse education and practice in remote areas. A case study from rural South Africa(Elsevier, 2014) Pimmer, Christoph; Brysiewicz, Petra; Walters, Fiona; Linxen, Sebastian [in: Nurse Education Today]Background: With the proliferation of portable digital technology, mobile learning is becoming increasingly popular in nursing education and practice. Most of the research in this field has been concentrated on small-scale projects in high income countries. Very little is known about the ways in which nurses and midwives use mobile technology in remote and resource poor areas in informal learning contexts in low and middle income countries. Objectives: To address this gap, this study investigates whether nurses use mobile phones as effective educational tools in marginalized and remote areas, and if so, how and why. Setting and Methods: In rural South Africa, 16 nurses who attended an advanced midwifery education program, facilitators and clinical managers were interviewed about their use of digital mobile technology for learning. Techniques of qualitative content analysis were used to examine the data.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher Zeitschrift
