A brief addendum to the September 11 blog:

It was brought to my attention by Dr. H Peach, that I need to clarify what the term cell phone means, and a more vague term I often over-use, which is the term devices. For the sake of Action Research, it needs to be defined what these words actually mean.  Perhaps to fit in to the model of being worthy of scholarly research, hence not assuming the reader knows.

when referring to these “devices,” the two main technologies I would like to see students us, are their smart phones with touch screen interface, such as droids or Apple Phones, and/or IPad devices. 

Since the latter is far more expensive, I only include it since it is a viable option to cell phones, and have larger easier to navigate screens, the same web access capabilities, and can share the same applications between the phones and these IPad devices, in other word “personal technology. 

Here is a very good link I wanted to share and enjoyed reading:
