Something to think about… How can we make Eastern Kentucky a hot-bed for technology jobs in the future? What can we do to prepare our students for a world that is driven by technology? Thoughts?!? Love to have some great conversation!!!

I was wondering, how many of our districts allow our students to use their SmartPhones in classroom? I found this article on how smartphones can be moved away from a toy to a tool. At the end of the article you will see 5 tips for getting started with smartphones. Check it out and tell me what you think.

In the last couple of years, I had been allowing students to use their smartphone in my classroom. We used them as clickers, ways for students to post to my blog, capture video and photos, and to create pod casts.
