Pocket-Based Learning: My Cellphone Classroom | Powerful Learning Practice - 1 views

  • ell phones promote the expression of their thinking and learning.
  • In terms of critical thinking, my students research extensively on the web and it is very convenient for them to pull out their phones to access our wireless network rather than going to a computer lab in the school. They can share the links to various sites via text messaging or Facebook in a timely and efficient manner. Many of my students communicate regularly in these mediums so it allows for the ubiquitous transmission of ideas into and out of the classroom.

  • llowing cell phones in classrooms provides the opportunity to discuss proper cell phone etiquette as well as “netiquette.”
  • We discuss how having a positive online presence is important both for obtaining entrance into schools and receiving jobs. I often have students use their devices to “Google” themselves, and we use the results as a springboard for a discussion into what their online presence or “digital footprint” says about them. It has been a very eye-opening experience for many.
  • I believe the ideals of ethical behavior and digital citizenship are the driving factors for BYOD.
  • Our students are immersed in these wireless mediums, and it’s our responsibility as educators to help them learn how to use them responsibly. BYOD provides these real world authentic learning opportunities to almost all of our students.

  • Kids who feel confident, engaged, and motivated to learn do not act out.

  • The key ingredient in effective lessons isn't alignment, it's pizzazz: excitement, engagement, challenge.
  • Stimulating video content can add to excitement and understanding. Hands-on experimentation helps a lot when appropriate, as does competition between teams or against the clock.
  • Classroom management strategies matter, of course, but pizzazz matters more. Motivated, engaged, challenged, and successful students are well-behaved, not because they've been threatened but because they are too busy engaged in learning to misbehave.
