about ways tablets can
be used in the classroom
Pro
s
★ “...mobile teaching encompassing tablets produce new
possibilities for communication and commanding
teaching” (Algoufi 115).
★ “Interactive and vigorous learning mechanisms help
learners to obtain knowledge as well as increasing the
21st-century proficiencies (Wang, Chen, et al., 2009)”
(Algoufi 115).
★ “They assist the students to think decisively, solve
situations and to make accurate choices” (Algoufi 115).
Cons
★ “ ...the widespread availability of devices and
tablets have posed a challenge”(Algoufi 116).
★ “Herrington and Herrington (2007) warned that
lack the theoretical foundation for integrating this
magic technology in education can lead to a wide
gap between the willing of new generation
learners and the ability of education institutions to
adapt to trends and changes (Herrington and
Herrington, 2007)”(Algoufi 116).
