Why do our mobile virtual homes take precedence over our real physical homes? Does our obsessive behaviour make us less interactive and engaging with real people? Are we becoming less human and morphing into ‘smombies’ (smartphone zombies)? And if so, what can we do about it to break our habits, change our behaviour and instead of spending our time looking down bathed in the reflective glare of our 5 inch screens learn to look up again?

I want to highlight this quote by AJ Juliani "Don’t lie to yourself, most of us are the same. We pay attention to what we want to focus on, not something else" because she said that she is not against the use of the cellphone in class since she is aware that not matter if the professor spice up the lesson the class do not motivate the students to pay attention.

"Have you ever wondered if all those people you see staring intently at their smartphones -- nearly everywhere, and at all times -- are addicted to them? According to a former Google product manager you are about to hear from, Silicon Valley is engineering your phone, apps and social media to get you hooked. He is one of the few tech insiders to publicly acknowledge that the companies responsible for programming your phones are working hard to get you and your family to feel the need to check in constantly. Some programmers call it “brain hacking” and the tech world would probably prefer you didn’t hear about it. But Tristan Harris openly questions the long-term consequences of it all and we think it’s worth putting down your phone to listen." Via John Evans

Today’s students are hard wired with innate abilities to network using technology. By far, their current ‘technology of choice’ is the mobile phone. According to Cell Phone City Advocacy, “on average, an American receives his/her first cell phone at the age of 12.1 years old, just as he/she is starting middle school. In addition, 73% of teens, roughly 14.3 million, own a smartphone.” A recent study by Young Canadians in a Wired World, reveals that not only do 25% of Grade 4 students have their own mobile phone, but also, more than one-third of teens and pre-teens even sleep with … Via John Evans, Jeroen Rougoor

Le BYOD pour l'enseignement s'impose petit à petit pour répondre à un besoin. D'abord un besoin pédagogique qui va être différent dans chaque discipline afin de répondre à des tâches précises et ensuite et pour répondre à un besoin technique et financierL'organisation matérielle du BYOD connaît différentes structures qui permettent un degré de latitude et un guidage plus ou moins fort pour les élèvesLes points forts du BYOD sont nombreux (responsabilisation des élèves / liaison classe - hors classe / collaboration / différenciation) mais demande une réflexion importante en amont : tous les élèves ne sont pas équipés de la même manière et tous les enseignants des équipes pédagogiques n'ont pas les mêmes compétences techniques.
