5 Reasons to Allow Students to Use Cellphones in Class

I love this article! The author really explains beneficial ways to get kids to make use of their cellphones in the classroom instead of letting them become distractions. I love the response to the fear that cell phones will allow students to cheat. The author says that traditional tests just ask the students to recall information, it does not require them to put into practice the skills they learned to see how they are applicable in real life situations. By incorporating cell phones in an educational way, teachers will actually be better preparing students for 21st Century professions. It is all about how you use the technology!
