The mission is figuring out how to develop learning content in higher education for mobile, hybrid, online, active learning -- and getting faculty and students excited about this.  First steps:  Taking a couple of Micro-Moocs offered through the Canvas Network on mobile learning design and quality online course design.

A little later in the day -- had time to catch up on my mobile learning class, listening to the archive of Metcalf's webinar on mobile learning at http://www.insidehighered.com/audio/2013/04/17/instructional-design-mobile-learning
Some thoughts from this webinar
The connection between Social, Realtime and Mobile and the connection with constructivist pedagogies and andragogies and new instructional technologies and tools finally makes it doable (not easy) to develop, deliver, and have students work on, create meaningful, authentic assignments, projects, discussions that make it very clear to students what the connection between content, degree, program and the application to the real world can be.
However, that connection also needs to be established by the faculty who create the content and the assignments, and that is not a technology question, a mobile question, but a question of -- are we ready to make that change?  And if so, how are we going to make that change happen?
