A question that Rob brought up during Dwayne’s Connect lecture was,
“How do you deal with the distractions that mobile devices create?  Do
you have rules for use during class?”  Dwayne’s response was that the
problem wasn’t the technology but the content or how the mobile
session was managed.  This raised another question for me, “How do we
organize a mobile class so there is little distraction with the
technology?

After watching the youtube video of the ASU, it seemed like the
students were excited and using their iPhone for mostly personal use.
The first 7.5 minutes of the video painted a picture that it’s like a
party.   I’m wondering if there has to be a stage of novelty before
the learner starts to use the device more for educational purposes.
Don’t get me wrong I think everyone should have a smart phone, but I’m
wondering if there has to be rules in place, like Rob suggested.

Does anyone have an idea.
