Maybe we can call 2012 the Year of Consideration. As Float met with many different companies and organizations, we found that almost everyone was still in that consideration stage, trying to figure out how mobile learning fits into their culture and how it can become an integral part of their learning program. It’s a good starting place; careful and strategic thought is important for any substantive initiative.

也许我们可以把2012年称为“考虑中”的一年。Float接触过许多不同的公司和组织，我们发现，几乎每个公司对移动学习都还处在考虑阶段，试图找出移动学习到底该如何融入他们的文化和他们的学习计划中，并使其成为不可分割的一部分。这是一个很好的开端，细致和战略性的思想对于任何实质性的进展都是非常重要的。

So if 2012 was the Year of Consideration, what will 2013 become for you and your organization? Well, you don’t want it to be the Year of Hesitation, Procrastination, Obfuscation, Consternation or Aggravation. It’s time for action, don’t you think? You most likely have seen the great potential and possibilities for mobile and there should be no reservations that you can integrate it into your learning platform.

　那么，如果2012是考虑中的一年，对你和你的组织来说，2013年会是怎样的一年呢？当然，你肯定不希望它是犹豫，拖延，困惑，惊愕甚至恶化的一年，对吧？是采取行动的时候了！你肯定看到了移动的巨大潜力和可行性，这还远远不够，你应该毫无保留的将它纳入到你的学习平台中。

　

Since it’s the beginning of the year, let’s take a look at some 2013 resolutions you can adopt so that this year mobile learning becomes more than a wish and turn into a reality.

Try adding these to your resolutions so you can become more of an active mobile learning professional:

I will read a book specifically about mobile learning. There are many books coming out that have great mLearning information, guidance and strategy. You will see us write about them here on the Float blog, you’ll notice several excerpts in the free Float Mobile Learning Primer for iOS and Android, and you can always start with our own Chad Udell’s book, Learning Everywhere. Or maybe if design is your focus, you can download Tapworthy: Designing Great iPhone Apps by Josh Clark. Yes, the focus is iOS but you will learn a lot about mobile design for all platforms in this book.

既然现在正值年初，那么让我们来看一看你在2013年可以采纳哪些决议来使你的移动学习由想法变成现实。

　　尝试采纳以下建议，这些使你成为活跃的移动学习专家：

　　1、读一本专门讲移动学习的书。很多书上面都会有大量的关于移动学习的信息，指导方法以及策略。你会发现我们在Float 博客上提到这些内容， 在Float上的苹果操作系统、安卓免费移动学习专区你也会发现一些摘录，而且你可以随时把Chad Udell的《学习无处不在》拿来读。或者，如果你关注的焦点是设计，那么你可以下载Tapworthy—由Josh Clark设计的伟大的苹果手机应用程序。是的，重点是苹果操作系统，但是在这本书中，你会学到很多关于其它移动平台设计的东西。

2、I will download a book about mobile learning. This is not a duplicate of the first resolution. This is more about the action than the deliverable. You need to get active on the mobile platform. You might enjoy reading a physical print version of a book better, but get this book for your Kindle or Galaxy or iPad and read it on a mobile device. It’s something you will expect your learners to do and you should feel comfortable doing it, too.

2、下载一本关于移动学习的书。这和第一条并不重复。这项决议关注的更多的是实际行动。你需要积极使用移动设备。你可能会更喜欢读印刷版的书本，但是你要在你的移动设备如Kindle或Galaxy或iPad上下载并且阅读这本书。这是你期望学习者做的事情，你这样做也应该感觉很舒服。

3、I will make a comment on a mobile learning blog. Join the conversation about mLearning. Our friend and colleague Gary Woodill has a great site and also links to many other mLearning blogs. The point here is to become active in the discussion about mobile learning in the workplace. Share your opinion. Ask questions. Be a contributor. You’ll be surprised how much you learn.

3、评论移动学习的博客，加入关于移动学习的谈话。我们的朋友兼同事Gary Woodill有一个伟大的网站，并链接到其他许多的移动学习博客。重要的是在讨论移动学习时要活跃：与他人分享你的观点，多提问题，做一个贡献者。你会惊奇地发现你到底学到了多少。

4、I will become active in social media. A major component of mobile learning is social media. Of course, there are the big dogs on the porch like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. These are great spots to engage in mLearning discussions. You can also find many interesting links to articles and blog posts that are shared by your connections. Beyond these well-known social media giants, there are other opportunities to become active in mLearning communities including networks such as Yammer, or perhaps you could try Tappestry, the first social network for learning. The point is there are lots of places you can connect with like-minded learning professionals who are tackling mobile learning just like you are.

4、在社交媒体间活跃。社会媒体是移动学习的一个重要组成部分。当然，有这一方面大家，如Facebook，Twitter和LinkedIn。这些媒体是切入移动学习讨论的一个很好的点。通过你网友分享的链接你还可以找到许多有趣的文章和博客帖子。除了这些知名的社交媒体巨头，还有很多其他的在移动学习社区活跃的机会，包括网络，如Yammer，或者你可以尝试Tappestry，它是第一个为学习而开发的社交网站，重要的是在这里你可以接触到跟你一样致力于解决移动学习问题专家。

5、I will attend a conference that has mobile learning information. There are some tremendous conferences and expos put on by great organizations such as the ASTD, the eLearning Guild and Training Magazine to name a few. Each of these groups stage several conferences a year that include mobile learning tracks and content. In fact, mLearnCon, which is staged by the eLearning Guild in the summer, is nothing but mLearning! If your budget can’t handle a national conference, there may be a local ASTD chapter near you. Additionally, you will find these same groups offer many virtual seminars, workshops and presentations. These conferences provide not only valuable information, but the networking is priceless as you have a concentration of other learning professionals going through the same experiences and quandaries that you are.

5、参加关于移动学习的会议。美国培训与发展协会（ASTD），在线学习行业协会（the eLearning Guild）以及美国培训杂志（Training Magazine）组织了一些重大会议和博览会。这些组织每年都会筹办几个会议讨论移动学习途径和内容。事实上，在线学习行业协会每年夏季举办的移动学习大会全部都是关于移动学习的！如果你由于预算问题不能参与全国性会议，你当地可能会有美国培训与发展协会的分部。此外，你会发现这些组织还会提供许多虚拟研讨会，讨论会和展示。这些会议不仅提供了有价值的信息，并且提供了无价的网络，因为你能通过这个圈子把其他有相同的经历和疑惑的专家集中起来。

That’s a good start to your 2013 mobile learning resolutions. If you undertake all of these, you are definitely going to become more “mobile smart.” In other words, you’ll be ready to speak clearly to your colleagues about the great potential of mobile in your organization. You are going to want to get stakeholders on board and so you need to be able to articulate and even demonstrate what mobile can do. These five resolutions will help you do that.

这篇文章对你2013年移动学习决议会是一个良好的开端。如果你全部采纳了这些建议，你肯定会变得更加“移动智能。”换句话说，你就可以随时向你的同事清楚地描述移动（学习）在你们单位的巨大潜力。你希望在董事会上得到股东的支持，那么你需要能够能言善辩甚至能演示移动学习都能做些什么。这五项决议将帮助你做到这一点。

In fact, if you don’t do these first five, the next five resolutions I share in Part Two are going to be rather difficult. Those will be resolutions that point you toward ways you can actually start implementing mobile learning in your enterprise. And that is your ultimate goal, isn’t it?
