Cell Phones used as a learning tool.

   Can cellphones be used in the classroom as a learning tool. I don't believe the cellphone  can be used as tool for learning. Some students can connect to the internet with their phones. But not all students can connect to the internet with their phones. Some helpful information can be found if they use their phones. But those that cant will just be left behind.
   But that's not all; along with finding helpful  information using their phones they will be sending messages while doing it. The screen for some phones will be to small to view the information. Along with that using the internet feature on their phones will drain the battery that much faster. So several students would have to be charging their phones during class. Which would lead to small conflicts over the few outlets in class.
    The cellphone was not designed with education in mind. It was made for the purpose of communication. Attempting to use it for anything else would be meaningless. Cellphones in the classroom can not be used for educational purposes. It will only lead to disruptions in the class room and it would take longer to get any work done. Cellphones should not be used in the classroom.
