I mean, we can carry on with our owns method to teach in a techonological way for example carry on with our own computer, speakers, also if we have enought money we can buy our personal projector because we used it a lot.

Movil phone in ESL classroom

******

I’m going to start with this question who doesn’t have an intelligent cellphone nowadays?

Well, interesting question in this time is very uncommon don’t know a person who doesn’t have an intelligent cellphone because in the younger life is necessary as well in the adult life because it’s a big tool. As a teacher is important to include a cellphone because, we know it is a good material and makes our life very easy. I read the article and I think this is a good tool to improve our lessons because we are in contact with them. We can use the recording to make good interviews or to practice their speaking as well, also search for an app to practice our grammar or vocabulary. Students can carry on books in the cellphone memory to improve their lecture habit.

Other think, and I think this the most important is using the social networks who doesn’t have Facebook in this days. Using social networks we can practice with discussions and so on.

As a conclusion, the mobiles are very important in our life’s as a teacher and as a student too, because we can perfectly made our homework’s and assignees in an easy way.
