To use or not to use, that is the question!?  This course will discuss the use of cell phones in the classroom and in schools.  Educators will examine how cell phones can get in the way of learning and can be a daily distraction.  We will also talk about how phones can help our students on a day-to-day basis.  Teachers will discuss how phones can help our students with research or other areas of study if their laptops are not charged.  Topics such as what it was like before cell phones were around will be discussed.  This course is a must for all educators grades K-12.
