Would love to hear more teachers thoughts on this issue. Can understand their concerns but are the issues that much different that issues that can arise with using Web 2.0 tools with students? Surely it is all about educating them on appropriate use of these technologies? Sue Thanks Darren for your feedback.

The use of mobile phones in the classroom is a highly debated topic right now in the U.S. Personally, I think that the unfortunate fact of the matter is that until teachers can *control* what their students do with those mobile phones in the classroom, then they simply won't become mainstream tools for classroom use. *Should* they become mainstream tools? Yes, IMHO. Nevertheless, too many teachers simply don't want to allow their students that kind of freedom - for fear of their students not behaving responsibly enough.
