While this article is about the workplace, I could see this happening in schools a lot.  The change from taking notes via pen and paper to smartphones may result in a lot of misunderstandings.  The digital natives and non-digital natives will have to find a way to understand each other, and that will take time.

it is so common that people have already developed a mindset of when mobile should and should not be used. As times change we should be open to all ideas.

Riding the wave of BYOD: developing a framework for creative pedagogies

thomcochrane's curator insight, September 24, 2014 7:57 PM

Moving innovation in teaching and learning beyond isolated short-term projects is one of the holy grails of educational technology research, which is littered with the debris of a constant stream of comparative studies demonstrating no significant difference between innovative technologies and traditional pedagogical approaches. Meanwhile, the approaching giant wave of the bring your own device (BYOD) movement threatens to overwhelm education practitioners and researchers preoccupied with replicating current practice on mobile devices. A review of the literature indicates that there are yet few well-developed theoretical frameworks for supporting creative pedagogies via BYOD. In this paper, we overview the development of a framework for creative pedagogies that harness the unique affordances of BYOD. This framework has been used across multiple educational contexts and scale from short workshops through to full courses and international collaborative projects. Our key design principles for supporting creative pedagogies via BYOD include modelling collaborative practice via establishing teacher communities of practice to learn about the affordances of mobile devices in relation to new modes of student learning, collaborative curriculum redesign in response to shifts in conceptions of teaching and learning, and collaborating with ICT Services for infrastructure development across the campus. Keywords: Mobile Learning; augmented reality; creative pedagogies; communities of practice; social media (Published: 28 August 2014) Citation: Research in Learning Technology 2014, 22 : 24637 - http://dx.doi.org/10.3402/rlt.v22.24637

20 BYOD Resources For The 21st Century Schools

20 BYOD Resources For The 21st Century Schools | Mobile Learning | Scoop.it

"BYOD policies–Bring Your Own Device–allow schools to bring technology into the classroom with a “bottom-up” approach. Such an approach can save money, allow students to use their own devices, and encourage a student-centered approach to learning."

Ness Crouch's curator insight, April 4, 2013 3:04 PM

Let's make learning student centred. It's really important that students have access to the web and as we know many schools do not have the funds to provide devices one to one. A solution is BYOD but obviously we need to ensure that there are protocol around the use and expectations of being a good digital citizen. 

Alan Ovens's comment, April 4, 2013 7:18 PM
I like this concept and prevents particular companies from monopolizing the educational landscape and limiting student options. Apple seems to dominate classroom space, although increasingly Android is the choice of young people. BYOD allows the relative strengths of each platform (and device) to benefit the learning opportunities available in the classroom and not just the commercial interests of some multinational company.
Harvey Chambers's curator insight, April 13, 2013 11:02 PM

Read this and consider trying JUST 1 in your classroom over the next three weeks.  Assess the pros and cons and determine whether what you used has value for future use.  If not, try another and do the same.  You'll be surprised at how beneficial the attempts are including technologies in your class will be.

With budgets tight, many schools are hoping to bring technology into the classroom without having to shell out for a device for each student. A solution for many has been to make classes BYOD (short for “bring your own device”), which allows students to bring laptops, tablets, and smartphones from home and to use them in the classroom and share them with other students.

Gust MEES:

Most of articles, blogs and Tweets witten by educational people are showing the advantages of "Bring Your Own Device" (BYOD) and they embrace very well BYOD, which I do also; but...

 

 

 

There are some more things to consider such as:

 

- A BYOD Policy in the campus, school...

 

- Prepare for BYOD in your organization 

 

Read my complete curation about it here:

http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching?q=BYOD

 

 

===> Read and learn also about IT-Security, YES that is a MUST in 21st Century in Education, especially when using BYOD: <===

 

http://gustmees.wordpress.com/category/get-smart-with-5-minutes-tutorials/

 

 

Learn also about eCitizen, Digital Citizenship where Teachers should stay there as good example and knowing about their responsability:

 

http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching?tag=eCitizen

 

Responsability as eCitizen for the Government, be a good patriot and know how to defend your Government against Cyber-Attacks and Cyberwar, why and how?

 

http://gustmees.wordpress.com/2012/05/21/visual-it-securitypart2-your-computer-as-a-possible-cyber-weapon/

 

 

===> The above mentioned must be included in Education and especially when using BYOD, read these blogs and curated articles and you will understand that they are a MUST ;) <===

BYOD and 1:1 are two popular trends in today's educational system. The common thing between these two trends is that they are both technology-induced, that is based on, applied to, and came about as a direct result of the wider uptake of digital technologies. Also both of these trends aim at a better integration and a wider access to technology within formal educational settings.

The growing headache of protecting mobile devices

The growing headache of protecting mobile devices | Mobile Learning | Scoop.it

Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) schemes have become increasingly prevalent in most businesses worldwide, as employees look to use their own personal devices in a business context. When asked if employees valued certain devices over others, 89 per cent of those surveyed claimed this was the case.

 

“Rather than fight against the tide, organizations should embrace the use of these devices and work alongside staff to ensure that comprehensive IT policies and best practice guidelines are put in place to assist and inform employees about how their devices should be used. End-point protection for these devices is also crucial if businesses want to safeguard employees against an ever-changing, increasingly sophisticated threat landscape.”

Especially, since business, unlike our sector, is driven by markets and profitability."
