The Cell Phone Debate Continues
The use of technology in the classroom continues to spur ongoing conversation between 2 camps; students, teachers and parents who feel that we must bring learning into the 21st century, and others who strongly believe that using technology dilutes authentic teaching and learning.
A new book written by Lisa Nielsen and Willyn Webb- " Teaching Generation Text-Using Cell Phones to Enhance Learning," offers innovative ways by which teachers can turn cell phones into educational opportunities. Bring this book to your school, and no doubt it will spark meaningful conversation among educators, parents and students!
