Cell Phone Learning Strategies
Recording Lectures: The “Flipped" Classroom
Many teachers are structuring their lessons in what is being coined “Flipped Classroom”. These teachers are recording their “lectures” using video or audio and students are listening to that outside of class as the homework and in class they are completing the practice and the teacher serves as a guide, re-teaching as needed. On most cell phones with a data plan students can watch a video of a previous lesson of an appropriate clip on You Tube.
Use Cell Phones as Your Student Response System
Using www.polleverywhere.com and your students’ cell phones, you can track instant answers from all your students. It’s free for classrooms of 30 people or less.
Gina Hartman an eMINTS Instructional Specialist at Francis Howell School District in Missouri shared a fantastic new Web 2.0 site named http://wiffiti.com. The teacher creates a wiffiti screen and students can text in their opinions.
One teacher used this to summarize Act 1, Scene 1 from Romeo and Juliet. They texted in the short summary and it showed up on the screen. In another classroom the students had think about the time period that Andrew Johnson was in office and text something into the wiffiti screen that would have been something he would have tweeted back then. I love this example, talk about engaging students.
Delivering Materials
As more curriculum materials are delivered digitally creative teachers are delivering materials directly to students on their personal cell phones. One such platform is School Town. This learning platform makes it possible for teachers and students to collaborate in discussion areas and chat with each other making blended learning a real possibility.
Awesome Teacher Apps
Dropbox: One of my most beloved apps is dropbox. Dropbox allows all my computers and my phone to interact together. So the photo I take on my cell phone can be put in my Dropbox app and now it is available on all my devices, love it!
Evernote: Next in line of cool apps for the classroom is Evernote. This handy app lets you type a text note, or clip a web page. If your phone has a camera you can snap a photo, and now you can also grab a screenshot. Like dropbox it doesn’t matter what device you are on, they all sync together.

Excerpted from
Cell Phones in the Classroom A Practical Guide for Educators
Liz Kolb
Cell phones have become mini-computers; no longer simply classroom distractions, they are now powerful classroom tools. Your students can use their cell phones to document science labs, record oral exams, and research information. You can use your cell phone to poll your students, communicate with parents, and update your
class blog. In Cell Phones in the Classroom, you’ll get great ideas from educators around the world and from the many lesson plans and tutorials.
This excerpt gives you just a taste of the examples in the book by highlighting two case studies and one lesson plan. Learn how Judy Pederson, a language arts teacher from California, uses Web 2.0 tools in conjunction with student cell phones, and how Jarrod Robinson of Victoria, Australia, incorporates student cell phones into his physical education classes. You can also try out a sample lesson plan and start a live
student radio station.
