  • Discipline issues nearly vanish:
  • The iSchool Initiative estimates each $150 iPod touch would save at least $600 per student per year.
  • ebook learning experience can be enjoyed anywhere for free.
  • Whether schools will allow ad-supported technology in the classroom remains to be seen.
  • Any notes she made on any platform would be saved automatically. This content and extra portability cost the student and the school nothing.

  • A recent survey explored the strategies used by postsecondary students to gather information using Internet-capable cell phones, or smartphones. Notably, users of iPhone and Android devices are beginning to use new search input tools, such as spoken keywords, geographic location, camera images, and barcode or quick-response code scans. Most of the student respondents who conducted information searches on these devices understood the need to evaluate the reliability of what they found. Even though students claim they can read on their smartphones without being distracted, the evidence shows that disruptions did occur in homework sessions and during class time.

    Published in March of 2011, this article reports on the results of a survey conducted of students at the University of Scranton on the strategies used by postsecondary students to gather information using Internet-capable cell phones, or smartphones. The article concluded: Information literacy instructors should become familiar with new search methods (such as quick response codes) to help students use them effectively and efficiently. Students should be encouraged to review a range of search results, particularly when searching for academic information. Information literacy instructors should help students understand how to evaluate information, especially when it is presented in a nontraditional form, such as a native app. Students may need assistance from educators in applying information literacy skills they have learned while searching on a laptop or desktop to the mobile environment.
