This idea has been thrown around the profession. Should teachers use personal technology such as smart-phones, i-pods, or personal organizers in their teaching methods. The problem that reoccurs with this idea is how to put this items into the students hands. Schools funds by percentage have been decreased because the overall funds have been reduced or the funds have remained the same but student population has increased. The money it takes to equip every student with these types of technology is high. The teacher can use these technologies but the students would not have the equipment to receive the information. I think teachers should use any advantage to teach but at the moment money does not allow these personal technologies to be practical.
