LAPTOPS IN CLASSROOMS AND FINGERS ON MOBILES Sue Greener, University of Brighton, United Kingdom All teachers are faced with
decisions about allowing and/or encouraging the use of highly mobile
devices in classrooms. Some writers in the literature, and many
teachers, propose strict rules governing the use of highly mobile
devices in class; other researchers demonstrate added value through
the affordances of highly mobile devices in class (e.g., Swan,
Kratcoski, & van t’Hooft, 2007). This paper will draw on recent
research to clarify the main issues in this debate and help teachers
in Higher Education (HE) to consider the best approach to adopt in
their own practice. |
