How teachers make cell phones work in the classroom
There are many ways to incorporate cell phone usage in a classroom. Cell phones can gauge student's understanding of a concept, can capture notes and ideas to be used and studied later, to calculate, to communicate, and to express ideas. Cell phones can be used as a warm up. As the students walk into the classroom, you can send out a mass text asking a challenging question that is related to that day's lesson. Students can also use a poll taking application to take multiple-choice and short-answer quizzes. When using cell phones in a classroom, it is important to remember that all your students may not have a cell phone, and that before using you will need to go over digital citizenship.
