Assigning students to use mobile devices can teach them that these devices are learning tools and offset the distraction that can come from their presence

Engaging students in the material being taught means showing them how they will be able to use this material out in the real world, and by extension teaching students to incorporate their learning into their professional profile

I have struggled with students using technology during class, and i would like to see more tools developed for how to encourage productive use of technology. I tend to see students finding ways to distract themselves while taking notes on a laptop or tablet, and while I want technology to be integrated into their learning I think it should not be encouraged as the only way that they are engaged
