#1 edWebinar of the Week With 262 live attendees, Using Smartphones in the Classroom, is the #1 edWebinar of the week! One of the biggest trends in education is the implementation of "Bring Your Own Device" (BYOD) programs in schools.  While these initiatives can bring great benefits, they can also lead to trouble if not implemented properly.   edWeb's TechTools for the Classroom community held a webinar on guidelines for implementing smartphone use in an educational setting.  Webinar presenter, Shannon Holden, technology enthusiast and Middle School administrator, showed teachers safe ways to utilize smartphones in the classroom.
