Welcome to Smartwatch Learning!

Hi,

thanks for dropping by. My name is Neil Davie and this blog will hopefully grow to be a collection of articles, links and thoughts on the possibilities of using smartwatches for learning purposes. I previously researched the effectiveness of learning vocabulary using a smartphone app, called quizlet, for my Masters dissertation at Edinburgh Napier University. Now that smartwatches are becoming more widespread and affordable I want to explore whether they too can be used for any kind of meaningful learning experience. This blog will be a repository for all the information I gather and for my thoughts on the subject as I delve deeper.

Please stop by again soon for new articles and links. And as a starter - here is the duolingo app in action on an Android Wear-powered smartwatch:

Hope to see you here again soon!

Cheers,

Neil
