It can be quite hard to find examples of tablets being leveraged for performance and learning in the public domain. Most companies are quite cagey about how they are using tablets and related technology for learning; to be honest, I don’t see why, but that is another matter altogether. Emirates is using tablets coupled with custom developed applications as performance support tools for crew-members. Quite interesting to see an actual EPSS that works on a tablet. The rollout involves about 1000 devices.
There is a bit of marketing claptrap; and it may require the installation of Silverlight, but the idea of using tablets in-flight and its implementation is nice. Gives clues on what ‘mobile learning’ is actually about – providing information and connected tools at the point of need.
