The main reason why smartphones aren’t used in classrooms is because they can be distractions. However, if teachers encorporate learning ON devices through apps and websites instead of saying “put that away!” then students will benefit from them and have fun by doing it! #learn
Ken Halla is a 9th grade teacher that supports smartphone use in classrooms. His blog, “World History Teachers Blog” is one of the most used education blogs in the US. Halla’s opinions on smartphone use in classrooms should be better recognized. #teacher#education#smartphones
