Given the speed at which mobile phones have been adopted by young people Engel and Green (2011, p. 39) believe that the mobile phone has now become part of popular culture and that it has "morphed from a way to hold a conversation with someone into a way to consume more media."  Although mobile devices have been the focus of numerous school policies which exclude their use in the classroom and discourage their very presence in school, Schuler (2009, p. 3) challenges us as educators to be "excited about their potential".  In her report, Pockets of Potential, Schuler (2009, p. 4) recognises the "enormous untapped educational potential for today's generation".  Sharples (2000), Kim et al. (2010) and Passey (2010) argue that the use of this technology represents an opportunity to learn wherever and whenever; such a small device harnesses the ability to connect not only with others but with information and blurs the line between school, home and play.   It is not surprising that Engel and Green (2011, p. 39) ask the question, "Should these devices be used in schools?"
