Mobile devices now offer yet another option for a generation adept at distraction — behold, going to college by smartphone. Earlier this week, the University of Phoenix, the nation’s largest private university, became the latest for-profit institution to dip its toe in the rapidly expanding marketplace of higher-education apps. Specifically, by launching the PhoenixMobile app, which is now available free of charge at the iTunes store, University of Phoenix students who are iPhone, iPod touch or iPad users will now be able to “move seamlessly between the online classroom and their mobile phone,” according to a recent press release. It is currently listed as the number one education app for the iPhone.
