(2008) predict that mobile devices will become increasingly important to learning and instruction, web-based technologies will likely continue to expand in terms of access, open educational resources will grow, instructional models will be better adapted to support the design and development of highly flexible learning scenarios, and that all learning will likely come to be e-learning (pp.808-810).
