The document discusses the increasing use of mobile technology among students and the need to modernize education to keep pace with changing technologies. It notes that smartphone ownership among 12-17 year olds is projected to reach 96% by 2017, and 34% of 13-18 year olds with phones also have tablets. Mobile internet access in Scotland has grown faster than any other UK nation. The document calls for schools and teaching methods, which have remained largely the same for years or centuries, to change and adapt to new sources of information and ways of interacting made possible by new technologies.

Editor's Notes
- #3: Mobile is important it is quickly becoming the main way that young people access the Internet.21st century learning wont all happen in school and learners need tools and access to high quality digital content via their mobile devices.
- #8: Wide range of apps, more choice and variations of apps than any other Cloud service (Google, Apple) the number of choices is possibly confusing for learners and teachers.
