10 benefits of integrating mobile technology in the classroom

Mobile technology plays a vital role in our lives as it is involved in our day-to-day activities. The time has come when you can manage a classroom without a pen, but not without a mobile or computer. We should take advantage of mobile technology in the classroom management system and try to use it for the welfare of students.

Here are the 10 features that give a clear idea of the benefits of using mobile technology in the classroom:

1.  Cloud: Mobile and cloud technology transform classrooms and make learning easy and efficient. The professors and students can discuss their curriculum. There will be no confusion about what they are going to learn.

2.  Attendance: This is one of the important processes in higher education which integrates mobile technology in the classroom. professors can mark attendance with a few taps, and this attendance marking is done in real-time and everyone who has access can view the attendance records.

3.  Assignment: professors can upload assignments from mobile and view the status of the assignments and check the students who didn’t submit and other status updates. Students can provide feedback and raise doubts if something is not clear.

4.  Grades: Mobile makes life easier for students and professors as they can be updated by the marks or grades awarded to them for their assignments. The automated grading system enables professors to assign grades and share them with students and parents.

5.  LMS: There are times when we forget the details of the reference materials recommended by the class professors. Now professors can upload the reference documents online in a mobile-based learning management system (LMS), and the students can refer to and download the course materials.

6.  Parent communication: Parents can be updated in real-time about their children’s activities in higher education or college.

7.  Forum: Sometimes, the things done and achieved by mobile are mind-boggling. The classroom activities can be made up-to-date. No need to wait for someone who comes with announcements or displays on the notice board. The professor will get a notification if any new activity or announcement is posted using the activity wall feature.

8.  Calendar: professors can now have access to all the deadlines and exam dates. This allows them to inform students about their progress and create mock test dates using a mobile-based calendar and students can be informed about events well in advance.

9.  Reports: As a professor, my foremost responsibility is classroom teaching and always keeping an eye on the discipline in the classroom. It is impossible to always keep a tab. The automated report management system provides you with every detail for quick decision-making.

10. Notifications: The Notification system enables students, professors, and administrators to send email, SMS alerts and push notifications on events and programs of the institution. Parents can track their child’s progress and receive real-time updates from the higher education or college.
