Students’ personal access to mobile devices

Students are multi-mobilists!
Students’ Philosophy: it just makes sense to use
different devices for different tasks
Create a presentation? Laptop Communicate w/classmates & teacher? Smartphone Read a book or article? Digital reader Take notes in class? Tablet

We are all multi-mobilists!
The mobilist parents – are you ready for them?
• 73% have a smartphone
• 49% have a tablet
• 37% want their child’s teacher/school to
text them with class info

The mobilist parents – are you ready for them?
New Speak Up Question:
What if there were two classes – one allowed use of mobile devices and one did not.
How likely is it that you would want your child in
the class that allowed the devices?
66% of parents said it was likely – they want their child in that “mobile using class”
(42% said very likely!)
