Cellphones in School?

Cellphones would be benifical for classroom use simply because of the way technology is rolling these days. Many cellular devices like Blackberry©, iPhone©, and other smartphones have the abilities to have "apps". An "app" is a downloadable application that can be added your
phone system. There could be multiple "apps" created in favor of education use such as a homework generator and assignment reminders. Some assignments could be done on your cellular device, which would save the people who did not attend school that day or even week.

Cellphones would also help ensure safety for the cellphone owner. The child could contact there parents in case of an emergancy and vice versa. Cellphones could cut the costs of the laptops that may have to be purchased for schooling.
