<p><em><strong>Do you believe that:</strong></em></p>
<ul>
<li>
In the (near) future, students will access their digital worlds via mobile devices and computers?</li>
<li>
That mobile apps should not try to duplicate the browser experience, but offer experience customized for the platform?</li>
<li>
So far, the mobilization of learning has been more hype than fact, and we (educators and vendors alike) have not figured out how to leverage smart phones or tablets as true complements to the browser?</li>
</ul>
<p>It is with these questions in mind that I've been playing with the <a href="http://www.instructure.com/blog/2011/12/08/canvas-for-ios/" target="_blank">Canvas for iOS app</a> on my iPhone and iPad for the past couple of days. If you are skeptical about the potential for the mobile LMS, I highly recommend that you get in touch with the folks at <a href="http://www.instructure.com/" target="_blank">Instructure</a> and ask for a demo account. (The app is free on the iTunes store, but you will need a demo account to go into a course from a student perspective to play around.)<br>
