Conflicting attitudes toward students who "multi-task" with mobile devices in classroom. "All the advances schools and colleges have made to supposedly enhance learning - supplying students with laptops, equipping computer labs, creating wireless networks - have instead enabled distraction. Perhaps attendance records should include a new category: present but otherwise engaged."

shared by Jennifer Hern on 07 Dec 09 - Cached

Much more attention has gone to the ways students might use phones to cheat or take inappropriate pictures. But as the technology becomes cheaper, more advanced, and more ingrained in students' lives that mentality is changing.
...
