September 5th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized

I am not surprise reading this article, the fact that they upgrade/change their technology gadgets in a blink of an eye..it’s expected that they’ll use it.

So here it goes, teachers are using smart phones as part of the educational tool. Wow, let’s expect more enhancement or additives in the next few ..days or months? You guess ;-)

Teachers and professors are starting to use cell phones as educational tools in their classrooms, after previously banning them as distractions.

Abilene Christian Univ. in Texas is giving two-thirds of its freshmen a smart phone that they’re expected to use for receiving handouts in class and brainstorming. About 100 high school freshmen in N.C. are using phones during their math classes in a program sponsored by handset gear maker Qualcomm.

They use the phones to play math games, network among themselves on problems and watch animation showing problems being solved.
