Introducing M☺BIPad®
The most notable innovation of the M☺BI® project in 2010 is the introduction of M☺BIPad®. This tablet device with its 7” touch screen and networking capabilities, runs on Android and allows for a much richer learner experience than that which is possible on a normal cell phone. M☺BIPad® provides all the capabilities of earlier M☺BI® versions but in addition it also offers more device-bound content. This means that learners do not need uncapped Internet connectivity to access learning content, assessments and revision.» Read more
