Why Cell Phones?
“Some of the most crucial steps in mental
growth are based not simply on acquiring new
skills, but on acquiring new administrative
ways to use what one already knows.”

For the first time since 2003, when asked
to identify the major obstacle to prevent
use of technology in school, students in
grades 6–12 said “I cannot use my own
cell phone, smart phone or Mp3 player in
school.”

How Student’s Use Cell
Phones for Personal
Productivity
Research on cell phones in learning says…
1) "The proportions of textisms that kids used in their sentence
translations was positively linked to verbal reasoning; the more
textspeak kids used, the higher their test scores”
2) "The younger the age at which the kids had received mobile
phones, the better their ability to read words and identify patterns
of sound in speech.”

In that dim monument where Tybalt lies."

Life Consequences: Sexting
 Six teens face child porn (13 to 15) charges
after being caught "sexting" each other.
Criminal Charge!
 IN PA, 3 girls (12, 12, 16) charged with child
pornography for sexing. Picture of them in
bras.
 15% of teenagers have risqué photos of
themselves or their friends on their cell
phones.
 1 in 5 sext recipients report that they have
passed the images along to someone else
http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/bestoftv/2009/01/15/pn.sexting.teens.cnn
"If you take a picture, you can be accused of
producing child pornography; if you send it to
somebody, you can be accused of distributing child
pornography; and if you keep a picture, you can be
accused of possessing child pornography.
Anywhere along this chain of transmission of the
images, you can be charged as a registered sex
offender."
-Parry Aftab, an Internet privacy and security lawyer.
Cyberbullying Most Popular
in…
 Online gaming and virtual worlds
 Chat/discussion rooms
 Social Network Sites
 Instant Messengers
 Text messages
 Video sharing sites like Youtube
“The girl’s parents, wild with outrage and fear,
showed the principal the text messages: a
dozen shocking, sexually explicit threats, sent
to their daughter the previous Saturday night
from the cellphone of a 12-year-old boy. Both
children were sixth graders at Benjamin
Franklin Middle School in Ridgewood, N.J. “
Punish him, insisted the parents.
“I said, ‘This occurred out of school, on a
weekend,’ ” recalled the principal, Tony Orsini.
“We can’t discipline him.”
COPPA
 If a children’s information is posted online, and
they are under the age of thirteen, notify the Web
site or online service that the children are under
thirteen and that COPPA (the Children’s Online
Privacy Protection Act) requires that they remove
the information immediately.
 If they don’t respond right away, contact
privacy@wiredsafety.org privacy [at]
wiredsafety.org or the FTC directly, at
http://www.ftc.gov/.
 CyberLaw Enforcement
http://cyberlawenforcement.org/
Be a Proactive Teacher
 Talk about cyberbullying and what it is and
why it is not tolerated.
 Send home information to parents reminding
the monitor their child’s online and mobile
activities.
 Review the school’s policy on bullying and
harassment
 Talk about consequences for bullying behavior
Discuss Mobile Safety & Appropriate Use
 Part of digital footprint
 Your digital dossier that includes Internet activity such as social
networking, email, chat rooms,
 YOU can’t erase this!!! Permanent record
 EVERYTHING you send via text message (pictures, videos, text,
audio…etc) is PUBLIC!!!
 Example: Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick
 Mobile “bullying” and “sexting” is public
 MTV Special on Sexting and Quiz
 Students should know their plans
 Bring in their cell phone plan and a bill
 Discuss what is charged and how much
 Give Students a Survey
Learn more specific safety tips at Connectsafely
Rules and Consequences
 Cell Phone to Cheat
 Enforce school policy on cheating
 Cell Phone as Distraction
 Enforce school policy on tardiness
 Cell Phone as Bully
 Enforce school
bully/harassment/violence/threat policy
 Cell Phone to send inappropriate
pics/videos
 Enforce school policy on harassment/threat
Step 3: Social Contract
Tips for Social Contract
 The teacher should explain to the students that there should be some rules
concerning how their cell phones will be used in the classroom, and students
have an opportunity to be part of the rule making process (the goal is to have no
more than 5 simple rules to follow and a consequence for non-compliance).
 Students should be asked to brainstorm rules. During the brainstorm, students
should be encouraged to support their rule with reasons why it should be
implemented (such as “cell phones should be on vibrate at all times”, the student
should then explain why this is important. If they can’t, ask for other students to
help explain it.)
 Once there is a workable list of rules, students should be encouraged to narrow
the list to about five rules. The teacher may want to do this himself, or to use the
analogy of a professional job where one is given a cell phone and a contract.
One could ask the students to imagine that they were given a professional
contract, hen they could be asked which“rules” they think should be implemented
in their classroom. Using this analogy may also help to eliminate some
redundant or unnecessary rules.
 Once the rules have been selected. The students should be asked to brainstorm
consequences for not following the rules. Once again, asking students to
decide on the best option.
 The teacher should let the students know that she will be adding these rules and
consequences to a permission form that will be sent home to have parents and
the students sign.
5 Rules for Cell Phones in
Schools
Set rules based on business regulations for cell phone
use (look at business contracts)
Social contract with students
 Must be on vibrate at all times
 Keep them in the front of the room until you are
going to use them.
 All messages/media sent or published must be
related to lesson.
 If you are referencing someone else in class, you
must have their approval before posting or
publishing.
 Create a permission form (in addition to the
School’s AUP)
Step 4: Permission Form
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We are starting a new project this year in our biology course. The
students will be taking pictures of different biological species that
they encounter in their everyday lives and posting on a private
class website. In order to capture the species in the everyday
lives of the students, I have given them the option of using their
cell phones to take the pictures and send them to the class
website. While the students are not required to have a cell
phone for the project, they are welcome to use their own if they
choose to and if you allow them. In class, we will be discussing
issues of mobile safety and etiquette before starting the project. I
will be using the ConnectSafely Guidelines for Mobile Safety
(http://www.connectsafely.org/safety-tips-and-advice.html ). If
you would like to participate in this conversation, please feel free
to attend the class sessions on March 5th and 6th during any of
the biology class periods:
8:00-9:00
9:10-10:10
2:10-3:10
In addition, I will be holding an information
night about mobile safety and the project
on March 3rd at 7:00pm. I will go over the
project in detail, show you how it works,
and also answer any questions you may
have about using cell phones in learning.
There is some research that supports the
need for using student cell phones in
learning and teaching students how cell
phones can be a productive and important
tool for their future professional growth.
This will be discussed in detail at the
information night as well as during the
March 5th and 6th class sessions.
Finally, you are welcome to participate in this
project! We are using a private space in a
photo-sharing site called Flickr, where all the
photos will be sent and eventually posted to a
map at the exact location they were
uncovered. You are welcome to take a picture
of a biological species that you encounter,
send it to kolb@flickr.com along with a short
text message on what you think the species is
and the location of where you took the picture!
Feel free to check the website each week to
see the learning progress. Login: Kolbbiology
Password: Biokid
I hope to see you in class and/or on the March 3rd information night. In the
meantime if you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to
contact me at kolb@gmail.com or by phone 777-222-5777.
I give permission for my child to use their cell phone for phone calling for
this project:
______________________________________________________.
(parent signature)
**They can only use _____ number of calling minutes for this project
I give permission for my child to use their cell phone for text messaging for
this project:
______________________________________________________.
(parent signature)
**They can only use _____ number of text messages for this project
I give permission for my child to use their cell phone for mobile Internet for
this project:
______________________________________________________.
(parent signature)
I give permission for my child to use their cell phone for taking and sending
pictures and/ or videos (circle one or both) for this project:
______________________________________________________.
(parent signature)
**They can only send _____ number of media messages for this project
Rules agreed upon by students and teacher
1. Cell Phones Must Be on Vibrate at All Times
2. Cell phones should be placed in the front of the room at
the beginning of class (at the designated table in your
numbered slot) and whenever they are not needed for
instruction
3. All mobile messages or media sent from your phone
during class MUST be related to the lesson or activity
4. If you are referencing someone else in class, you must
have their (recorded verbal or written) approval before
posting or publishing.
Consequences
The student will be asked to write a letter home to
you and explain why they did not follow the rules in
class. They will also be asked to come up with better
class guidelines around cell phones use in schools so
this does not occur again.
I will adhere to the classroom rules for cell phone use
__________________________________________

Thank you
Liz Kolb
Step 5: Alternatives
Alternative Ideas
 Select an online resource that couples with cell phones, but also has
web-based options for uploading or sharing. For example if you use
Flickr to send pictures to and from mobile phones to a private place
online, students who do not have a cell phone, can still upload to Flickr
via the web.
 Grouping students. Purposely putting students in groups or pairs where
the teacher knows that at least one of the group members has a cell
phone that can be used for the project is a simple way to keep the
students who do not have cell phones anonymous (because the teacher
can say, “someone in each group should take out their cell phone to use
for this activity.”)
 Allow students to use your own cell phone.
 Landlines (many web-based cell phone resources have toll free calling
numbers) for phone calling activities.
 Center activities for K-8 students where the teacher can use one cell
phone with all the students during center time.
 Allow students to use hardcopy options that they hand in to you, and
you upload the work to the online resource. This is important since a
few parents do not want their children using cell phones in any capacity.
Step 6: Parent Information
Night
Parent Night Ideas
 An overview of why you are using the student cell phones.
 Mobile Safety for Parents
 http://www.whereoscope.com/ (track your kids via cell phone)
 http://www.safetyweb.com/ (monitor mobile use)
 http://www.picture-alert.com (parental control on mobile pics)
 Describe the project(s) that will revolve around cell phone use,
and any cost associated with the project and student cell phone
use.
 Alternatives that the students have for completing the project
without using cell phones
 Any change in school cell phone policy as a result of the
project(s).
 Rules of the cell phone use during the project and the
consequences for the students who do not follow the rules.
 Parents should be invited to participate in the activity (within
reason).
 Provide parents with multiple ways for feedback (email address,
a text message number, a voicemail (Google Voice would be

  • 89. Step 3: Social Contract
  • 90. Tips for Social Contract  The teacher should explain to the students that there should be some rules concerning how their cell phones will be used in the classroom, and students have an opportunity to be part of the rule making process (the goal is to have no more than 5 simple rules to follow and a consequence for non-compliance).  Students should be asked to brainstorm rules. During the brainstorm, students should be encouraged to support their rule with reasons why it should be implemented (such as “cell phones should be on vibrate at all times”, the student should then explain why this is important. If they can’t, ask for other students to help explain it.)  Once there is a workable list of rules, students should be encouraged to narrow the list to about five rules. The teacher may want to do this himself, or to use the analogy of a professional job where one is given a cell phone and a contract. One could ask the students to imagine that they were given a professional contract, hen they could be asked which“rules” they think should be implemented in their classroom. Using this analogy may also help to eliminate some redundant or unnecessary rules.  Once the rules have been selected. The students should be asked to brainstorm consequences for not following the rules. Once again, asking students to decide on the best option.  The teacher should let the students know that she will be adding these rules and consequences to a permission form that will be sent home to have parents and the students sign.
  • 91. 5 Rules for Cell Phones in Schools Set rules based on business regulations for cell phone use (look at business contracts) Social contract with students  Must be on vibrate at all times  Keep them in the front of the room until you are going to use them.  All messages/media sent or published must be related to lesson.  If you are referencing someone else in class, you must have their approval before posting or publishing.  Create a permission form (in addition to the School’s AUP)
  • 93. Dear Parents and Guardians, We are starting a new project this year in our biology course. The students will be taking pictures of different biological species that they encounter in their everyday lives and posting on a private class website. In order to capture the species in the everyday lives of the students, I have given them the option of using their cell phones to take the pictures and send them to the class website. While the students are not required to have a cell phone for the project, they are welcome to use their own if they choose to and if you allow them. In class, we will be discussing issues of mobile safety and etiquette before starting the project. I will be using the ConnectSafely Guidelines for Mobile Safety (http://www.connectsafely.org/safety-tips-and-advice.html ). If you would like to participate in this conversation, please feel free to attend the class sessions on March 5th and 6th during any of the biology class periods: 8:00-9:00 9:10-10:10 2:10-3:10
  • 94. In addition, I will be holding an information night about mobile safety and the project on March 3rd at 7:00pm. I will go over the project in detail, show you how it works, and also answer any questions you may have about using cell phones in learning.
  • 95. There is some research that supports the need for using student cell phones in learning and teaching students how cell phones can be a productive and important tool for their future professional growth. This will be discussed in detail at the information night as well as during the March 5th and 6th class sessions.
  • 96. Finally, you are welcome to participate in this project! We are using a private space in a photo-sharing site called Flickr, where all the photos will be sent and eventually posted to a map at the exact location they were uncovered. You are welcome to take a picture of a biological species that you encounter, send it to kolb@flickr.com along with a short text message on what you think the species is and the location of where you took the picture! Feel free to check the website each week to see the learning progress. Login: Kolbbiology Password: Biokid
  • 97. I hope to see you in class and/or on the March 3rd information night. In the meantime if you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to contact me at kolb@gmail.com or by phone 777-222-5777. I give permission for my child to use their cell phone for phone calling for this project: ______________________________________________________. (parent signature) **They can only use _____ number of calling minutes for this project I give permission for my child to use their cell phone for text messaging for this project: ______________________________________________________. (parent signature) **They can only use _____ number of text messages for this project I give permission for my child to use their cell phone for mobile Internet for this project: ______________________________________________________. (parent signature) I give permission for my child to use their cell phone for taking and sending pictures and/ or videos (circle one or both) for this project: ______________________________________________________. (parent signature) **They can only send _____ number of media messages for this project
  • 98. Rules agreed upon by students and teacher 1. Cell Phones Must Be on Vibrate at All Times 2. Cell phones should be placed in the front of the room at the beginning of class (at the designated table in your numbered slot) and whenever they are not needed for instruction 3. All mobile messages or media sent from your phone during class MUST be related to the lesson or activity 4. If you are referencing someone else in class, you must have their (recorded verbal or written) approval before posting or publishing.
  • 99. Consequences The student will be asked to write a letter home to you and explain why they did not follow the rules in class. They will also be asked to come up with better class guidelines around cell phones use in schools so this does not occur again. I will adhere to the classroom rules for cell phone use __________________________________________ _________. (student signature) Thank you Liz Kolb
  • 101. Alternative Ideas  Select an online resource that couples with cell phones, but also has web-based options for uploading or sharing. For example if you use Flickr to send pictures to and from mobile phones to a private place online, students who do not have a cell phone, can still upload to Flickr via the web.  Grouping students. Purposely putting students in groups or pairs where the teacher knows that at least one of the group members has a cell phone that can be used for the project is a simple way to keep the students who do not have cell phones anonymous (because the teacher can say, “someone in each group should take out their cell phone to use for this activity.”)  Allow students to use your own cell phone.  Landlines (many web-based cell phone resources have toll free calling numbers) for phone calling activities.  Center activities for K-8 students where the teacher can use one cell phone with all the students during center time.  Allow students to use hardcopy options that they hand in to you, and you upload the work to the online resource. This is important since a few parents do not want their children using cell phones in any capacity.
  • 102. Step 6: Parent Information Night
  • 103. Parent Night Ideas  An overview of why you are using the student cell phones.  Mobile Safety for Parents  http://www.whereoscope.com/ (track your kids via cell phone)  http://www.safetyweb.com/ (monitor mobile use)  http://www.picture-alert.com (parental control on mobile pics)  Describe the project(s) that will revolve around cell phone use, and any cost associated with the project and student cell phone use.  Alternatives that the students have for completing the project without using cell phones  Any change in school cell phone policy as a result of the project(s).  Rules of the cell phone use during the project and the consequences for the students who do not follow the rules.  Parents should be invited to participate in the activity (within reason).  Provide parents with multiple ways for feedback (email address, a text message number, a voicemail (Google Voice would be
