      Gosh, this is truly overwhelming with so many ideas. Just reading through this makes my head swim. The challenge of the day is to find just one idea that might hold promise. I bet like potato chips you can't eat just one.

      Here is the most important part....I could not disagree me. 
  • The potential damage stemming from heightened cell phone use during class casts a pall on the entire educational system, on the school atmosphere, on the educational achievements of the class, on the pupil’s own learning experience and on the teacher’s burnout having to cope with discipline problems in class.’”

  • I could not disagree more with the above quotation. Although there is no doubt the very same scenarios mentioned in the above article are occurring in various classrooms around the globe, I now encourage all students to bring their cellphones or smartphones to class. Just a few years prior, my colleagues and I were struggling mightily with how to integrate the crafty handheld tools.
  • I believe the potential of smartphones, supported by a strong classroom management system, can be summed up with what I call “The Five C’s.” Collaborate, communicate, create and coordinate/curate. Of the forty-four ideas below regarding smartphones, twelve can be accomplished with a simple cellphone. Take a look below at this enormous potential.
  • Establish a Twitter class account to share class assignments and reminders. If students do not want a Twitter account, make it easy. Embed the Twitter feed on your teacher page.
  • Send students reminders in-class/after-class through ClassParrot and Remind 101.
  • Have a silent discussion via Todaysmeet.com.
  • Write on-the-go during a field trip or active lesson on campus with Tripline.
  • Create a mini-presentation, skit, or formal response to a prompt and e-mail the video to teacher’s Posterous blog spot.
  • Use the stopwatch and timer apps to manage class time.
