We need to begin to empower students to take more ownership of their learning by promoting Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and the use of mobile learning devices if schools do not have the means to go 1:1. By BYOD I don’t mean just allowing kids to bring in and use their own devices in the hallways and during lunch.

Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiatives are being adopted by districts and schools around the globe. In theory this all sounds fantastic and there are many benefits that I have witnessed firsthand after successfully implementing a BYOD initiative over five years ago at my high school. In any case the ones who suffer are our students.

As devices have become more affordable over the years, parents have bestowed a variety of mobile technologies upon their children. This has resulted in a growing trend of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiatives being adopted. However, many schools and districts that have adopted BYOD have done so without proper planning and support.

It really puts into perspective why we make many of the decisions that we do at New Milford High School as to why we decided to implement a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiative and don''t mandate the use of one specific tool to support learning. Let it support learning."

I am a huge fan of using mobile learning devices (i.e. student cell phones) in class as part of an anticipatory set, to review prior learning, to check for understanding and/or assess, or as a form of closure. To learn more about Celly and to get started creating your own cells click this link.

Students need to fully understand that they are tools for learning. Make consistent efforts to refer to them as mobile learning devices. When using these devices in the classroom, the teacher must ensure that there is a specific learning outcome connected to the device. Treat students like 21 st Century adolescents.
