Week11: The importance of using mobiles in the classroom.
Mobile usage in the classroom has become an
important implement for teachers because with it, they might make a lot of
activities in which students may be an aware of having an iPod, phone or
something that helps them to be connected to the technology. Moreover, in my
opinion a mobile user is a tool that can generate communication and connection between
teachers and students, because there are many activities such us make students to
record their voices talking about an specific picture, video, or podcast
in which teachers can ask students to create their tasks and send a prove of it, by email or something related to the technology.
These kind of activities are good to generate classes in a different way, but in some cases it
would be a little difficult to do it because not all the students can have a
mobile user, so in that case teachers have to look to make their students work
in groups or look for someone who has a mobile usage. Furthermore, something
that really called my attention was when the article pointed out that teachers
have to be clear when giving instructions to the students when they can send
the task through emails, and what to
send, because the information can be misunderstood and students can send information
that may not be appropriate for teachers or they might want to be sending texts
that will not be rewarding to the task. And about the time students have to
respectful with the specific time that the teacher has given to them.

Hello violet… I agree with you about the difficulties that teachers can have when they are using cell phones in classes or at home. Additionally, teachers need to know how important is to take into consideration the tools that every student have, for example, if students have a cellphone or tablet because in class not everybody has a cellphone or an electronic advice to use, or maybe if the students have access to internet, and other detail that we as future teacher need to think about is the type of mobile phone learners have, might be it is too old.
