Social Tagging in a Mobile Learning Environment

Marking everything with a name, attaching a description to each node of an information space, is a way to classify resources by the use of informally assigned tags. With the advent of the Web 2.0, we need to reconsider navigation strategies and how social software (e.g. wiki, blog, rss, social bookmarking) can support users in the navigation of information spaces. In this paper we investigate how and if social bookmarking can become "mobile" and thus serve as a tool that supports students in on site learning experiences. We present a preliminarily analysis of some data gathered during a mobile learning experience, carried out at the Italian National Research Council using the Mobile and Ubiquitous Learning (MoULe) environment.
