I agree with Athina’s comment regarding the use of mobile phones as an assignment tool as suggested in “Pay Attention” video. The points she made need to be taken into consideration when using any type of technology in a classroom. The reason for this is that besides computers, which are provided by the school, most of other gadgets would mainly be students’ own possession.
However, from the way I see it, the video was only highlighting the issue of the use of technology in everyday lives, stressing the importance of incorporating it into the classrooms. I think they only gave mobiles as an example to demonstrate how they are widely used powerful computers, and so why aren’t we using them to teach? It is up to each individual teacher to decide which technological tool would be appropriate for a particular class and a subject.
