What Students And Parents Think About Mobile Technology – Edudemic

See on Scoop.it – Social Media: Changing Our World of Education

Mobile Technology Takeover?

Look around at any restaurant or mall and it’s easy to see: adults are always connected to their mobile devices. But as this technology becomes even more ingrained in our lives, what can we expect for our children? Studies show that – used wisely – technology can be an important part of their everyday lives as well.

Check out the infographic below to see how mobile technology is integrated into the lives of even the youngest kids.

Coolwired‘s insight:

  Mobile technology is still so new, in education. It is everywhere in our daily lives, but what are the effects on children’s

learning skills? How does it affect their social attitudes and physical growth? The Pros and Cons are still being studied and determined. Tell me what you think.

See on Scoop.it – #LearningCommons

Did you know that Twitter is grabbing more new registrations than Facebook, with more than half of its entire userbase compromised of people who have signed up in the last year, compared to just 19 percent for Mark Zuckerberg’s baby?

These, and several other amazing social media statistics, can be found in the infographic on social media statistics.
