UM: Cellphones
The Dallas Morning News, in an article about cellphones being used as classroom computers, quotes UM professor Elliot Soloway, who developed software for cellphones that’s being used in some schools. Says Soloway: “Laptops are oh so ’90s – they’re your parents’ generation. While every kid does need a computer, the computer that will happen on will be cellphones. The cellphone is now as important as a pair of shoes or a coat.” [Source]
