The Mobile Learner

To assist in your quest for educational resources for ipods and smart phones this week check out: Mobile Learner

There are thousands of apps and many are educational.

1. Look at the 2 poll boxes to the right.  Choose answers.   How do you predict this poll will play out?

2. Comment on why you think more teachers don't use mobile devices in class.

3.   OK...now go for it! You have been commissioned to speak at the next teacher staff meeting. Highlight the attributes of ipods/smart phones.  Convince teachers of the potential benefits in using these devices in their classroom.  Consider what their objections might be and comment about how you'd alleviate those concerns.
