PERTH, ON--(Marketwire - October 23, 2007) - Mobile e-learning promises to get easier as
dominKnow Inc. announces the beta version of its iPod touch and
iPhone-optimized Touch Learning Center portal for the dominKnow Learning
Content Management System (LCMS). With access to the dominKnow Learning
Center through the iPod touch-optimized portal, learners can log in and
take full online courses, access reference objects and open documents and
Web links added as resources to any course. Learners can also access
progress reports and their internal dominKnow LCMS e-mail inbox.
dominKnow designed the Touch Learning Center portal using the iPhone User
Interface (iUI), a framework and sample code released by Joe Hewitt, a
software engineer and major contributor to the iPhone development
community.
dominKnow's Touch Learning Center portal comes in the wake of an eLearning
Guild 360° Report (July 2007) on Mobile Learning in which 66% of 940
e-learning professionals surveyed said they are actively researching mobile
learning initiatives. It also reported that, of members who have
implemented mobile learning and are able to evaluate Return On Investment,
88% report a positive ROI.
"Our office has been buzzing with excitement since the iPod touch was
released in Canada two weeks ago," says Chris Van Wingerden, Vice President
at dominKnow Inc. "We knew that this device could open up tremendous new
access to mobile e-learning -- all because of Apple's focus on the user
experience. The ability to zoom in and out of Web content with the touch of
your fingers means the experience of taking a course online is so much more
intuitive than the experience on many other mobile devices."
iPod Touch and iPhone users can try this experience for themselves.
dominKnow has posted a short sample course online in the Touch Learning
Center portal. To access the portal, go to http://demo.dominKnow.com/mobile
and create a user account.
