Some teachers (and schools) in NZ and overseas are starting to use cell phones in the classroom more and more as part of the learning programme. An interesting article here from the US. A good point made about some of the current phones in students pockets have more computer power that was used on the trip to the moon and back.
This article is an interesting contrast to Rangitoto College in Auckland that currently ban cell phones as they want the students to interact more (this was the current policy as of week 8 Term 3 this year - from one of the leaders at the school)
Where do you sit with cell phones in the classroom?
