  • Bloomsbury in Nineteenth-Century Fiction: Some Quotations Compiled by Matt Ingleby and Deborah Colville
    Bloomsbury in Nineteenth-Century Fiction: Some Quotations compiled by Matt Ingleby and Deborah Colville From Theodore Hook’s Sayings and Doings (1824) One day, some week perhaps after the dismissal of Rushbrook, Henry was dining with the Meadowses, who were going to Mrs. Saddington’s assembly in Russell-square. It may be advantageously observed here, that this lady was the dashing wife of the eminent banker, whose acceptance to a bill due the next day my hero had in his pocket. To this party Mrs. Meadows pressed him to accompany them, never forgetting, as I hope my readers never will, that he, the said Henry Merton, Esq. held an appointment under Government of some four-and-twenty hundred pounds per annum, and was therefore a more suitable and agreeable companion for herself and daughter, than when he was “a single gentleman three months ago,” with no estate save that, which lay under his hat, and no income except that derivable from property entirely at the disposal of his father. Henry at first objected; but never having seen much of that part of the town in which this semi-fashionable lived, and desirous of ascertaining how people “make it out” in the recesses of Bloomsbury and the wilds of Guildford Street, and feeling that “all the world to him” would be there, at length agreed to go, and accordingly proceeded with the ladies in their carriage through Oxford-street, St. Giles’s, Tottenham-court-road and so past Dyott-street, and the British Museum, to the remote scene of gaiety, which they, however, reached in perfect safety.

Mobile learning (mLearning), an emerging form of educational technology using mobile devices, has been used to supplement learning outcomes through enabling conversations, the sharing of information and knowledge with other learners; and, aiding support from peers and instructors regardless of geographic distance. Objectives This review synthesises findings from qualitative or mixed methods studies to provide insight into factors facilitating or hindering implementation of mLearning strategies for medical and nursing education. Methods A systematic search was conducted across a range of databases. Studies were selected on the basis that they were examining mLearning in medical and nursing education, employed a mixed methods or qualitative approach, and were published in English after 1995. Findings were synthesised using a framework synthesis approach.
