Summary: ICT-implementation in education has mostly been aimed at enhancing learning informal arenas-the classroom. However, accepting that learning does not only forego in the formal learning arenas, it is proposed that mobile technology can be used as a bridge between the formal and informal learning arenas. The question is whether the bridge between school and other arenas open or closed-is there a barrier? The paper asks what strategies/changes/challenges have to be in place for the school to access and utilize learning arenas which are alternative to the formal learning arena?.
