Abstract
This paper reflects on a decade of discussions about the range of ethical issues arising in mobile learning research. Research into the educational potential of mobile, handheld technologies to enhance teaching and learning has been regularly frustrated by lecturers’ and teachers’ concerns about how their students might use such devices. At other times researchers have been surprised by the extent of the personal information made available to them. It presents the use of co-created ethics frameworks and scenario generation as a potential way forward that is more aligned with participatory research ethics than the traditional one-off pre-project approval by an ethics committee.
