Mobile connectivity opens up new ways of teaching and learning that improve performance and results, while opening up new markets for mobile operators. Mobile connectivity enables access to up-to-date materials, improves collaboration and strengthens learner engagement.

The GSMA has recently published a joint report with McKinsey & Company, Transforming learning through mEducation, which shows that mEducation will be a $70 Billion market opportunity by 2020. The GSMA has also published the Mobile Proposition for Education report which outlines key educational scenarios in which mobile technologies can provide significant benefits, while the Mobile Education Landscape report describes the emerging global mobile education and related eTextbook publishing markets.
