Mobile IT in Higher Education, 2011 Report. Educause

"Discussion about mobile IT in higher
education is ubiquitous, but attaining benefits of mobility does not
come easily. The ECAR mobile IT study gathered quantitative and
qualitative data from a representative sample of 209 higher education
institutions. Most respondents to ECAR's 2011 study report little
progress in making institutional services, applications, and websites
accessible on mobile devices. The average respondent institution has
enabled only a few services for mobile access. Institutions that have
invested more money and those that have larger numbers of staff assigned
to mobile-enablement initiatives show greater progress. Mobile
enablement of student-facing services has taken highest priority to
date, and we see considerably more mobile progress in areas that are
given higher priority.
Development strategies for mobile
computing include mobile web, native apps, and mobile frameworks.
Institutions pursuing a portfolio approach to mobility—using different
development strategies for different services—show greater progress in
deploying mobile services."
