There is growing interest in a research agenda that focuses on inquiries regarding learning environments that are not physical or virtual, but instead a seamless (Loi et al., 2010 ) "learnscape" (Cross, 2006, 2010) that transcend notions of artificial boundaries. Whether in a traditional classroom, fully online, 100% mobile, at their homes, or 24 hours a day in learners' own authentic spaces, modern learners and workers continue to expand where and how they learn. Mobile learning is just one example of how the modern learnscape is being expanded to fit the unique, individual needs of a learning society that is increasingly on the go and socially connected. What happens when the keys to knowledge are no longer controlled and closed off to the world? What happens when education and training become accessible and open to all, and fits into one's pocket 24 hours a day, 365 days a year? Most important to colleges and universities, how do we ensure meaningful learning and success for students, and what value do we bring to these modern learnscapes? The goal of this presentation is to begin to address these and other pressing issues by examining one state college's college-wide initiative and research related to this topic. Project case studies implemented at the college, such as 100% mobile distance learning course designed for the U.S. Navy and Army, the College Learning Solutions and Textbook replacement consortium (SIRIUS), and a historic move to 100% paperless courses, will provide real-life learning experiences, data, and valuable insight to the future of learning. Specifically, the updated data on the following college initiative and research projects will be shared and discussed: • The college-wide move to 100% electronic learning materials and texts • 2010 development of seven mobile courses for deployed U.S. Navy students and pilot student results • 2010 case study of student mobile eBook learning experiences References Cross, J.
