“…Educators could look for ways to incorporate texting into their classrooms to increase student engagement. There is an interest from students for teachers to use cell phones to increase engagement (Humble-Thaden, 2011). Clicker technology, which now can be accessed through smart phone apps, has been used as a way to increase student engagement in a college classes (Vaterlaus Beckert, et al, 2012).…”

“…Although there is less research covering texting in school specifically, researchers have examined cell phone use in schools. Humble-Thaden (2011) conducted a study using 142 college freshmen, asking them to reflect on their high school experience with cell phone policy, and how cell phones might be used to enhance the educational experience. The participants indicated positive perceptions of the potential use of cell phones as educational tools.…”

“…Yet, college-aged students and high school students have different rates of use, and different purposes for using text messaging (Tulane & Beckert, 2013). Researchers note that high school student perceptions are important to further understanding cell phone use in school (Humble-Thaden, 2011). As mentioned previously, high school aged adolescents are those who are most likely to be using this medium, and it is a phenomenon that is impacting the daily life of this particular age group.…”

Text messaging, used by people of all ages, has become the preferred method of communication for teenagers. Teens spend a significant amount of their daytime hours in school. Schools have not readily accepted the use of cell phone technology for fear of academic dishonesty, distraction, and cyberbullying. The current study examined adolescent (n = 218) attitudes concerning text messaging in school. The majority of adolescents (71%) supported text messaging in school. A phenomenological qualitative approach revealed that adolescents' experience with texting and school centers on student attention, connection (with family, friends, and emergency responders), and levels of regulation (personal, circumstantial, and school).

“…Results of another study (Ferry, 2009) indicated that modern mobile phones can be used to help students to access web based contents, remix it, share it, collaborate with others and create media rich deliverable for the classroom teachers as well as global audience. Results revealed in an investigation (Thaden, 2007) to determine gender effect or influence on the students' perception focused an overall positive perception regarding the usage of cell phone technology mainly in secondary education. Positive responses from surveys suggest that there is interest in and potential for educational implementation and use of mobile phones as learning tools in schools.…”

As India has the world's second largest mobile phone user base (over 893.3 million users, May 2011) and Wireless communication has emerged as one of the fastest diffusing media on the planet, fuelling an emergent 'mobile youth culture', it will be interesting to explore the attitude of undergraduate students towards the use of mobile phones for educational purposes. We all know that mobile phones provide multitude of features and services so much so that mobile phone has become an important part and parcel of everyday modern life. Thus, increased popularity of cell and smart phones in recent years has attracted research attention. The present study seeks to discover whether it is blissful for students regarding their studies and whether there remain significant differences in their attitude towards using mobile phones for educational purpose with respect to gender, medium of education, academic discipline and residence of the undergraduate students particularly focusing on the three main dimensions of usability, barriers and preferability of using mobile phones for educational purpose. The study deals with 55 samples comprising both males (27) and females (28) from different colleges under University of Calcutta. Data tools included a General Information Schedule and an attitude scale. Significant differences were noted in the attitude of the students with respect to gender, medium of education and residence while with respect to academic discipline the difference in the attitude of undergraduate students was insignificant.

Measuring cyber wisdom: preliminary validation of a new four-component measure

et al. 2023

Cyber-wisdom is the ability to know and do the right thing at the right time, when using digital technologies, and is a concept that is gaining attention from educators. Whilst the theory and practice of cyber-wisdom education is established, to date there has been no attempt to investigate how the virtue of cyber-wisdom might be measured. This is a lacuna as it limits future research in the area, including, in particular, proximal evaluations of cyber-wisdom interventions. This article introduces a new four-component measure of cyber-wisdom, which is relevant to how the virtue may be cultivated in practice via formal education and the teaching of what is generally referred to as digital citizenship education. The measure was piloted with 1,331 13–16 year-olds. The findings provide initial evidence that cyber-wisdom literacy, reasoning, reflection, and motivation can be measured. This study provides preliminary validation of cyber-wisdom sub-measures that might be used in evaluations of educational interventions that seek to help children and adolescents live with wisdom in the digital age.
