"A smart phone is like your own personal tutor"

I have not seen this but it's not surprising...  

 

All a smartphone does is distract kids... hell, it distracts me.

 

I can't imagine sitting in a classroom now with my phone.  I would never pay attention.

 

 

I suppose there's some argument to be made for having net access while you're studying, but you don't need a smartphone for that.

The ad I heard on the radio had kids talking like historical figures are posting on their facebook timeline.

 

IE "Alex Bell posted again.  Gee, just because he invented the telephone doesn't mean he can blow mine up all the time"

 

Then it goes into the personal tutor garbage.

 

Jimmies are rustled.

I think if used properly a smart phone can have some educational purpose. I'm constantly googling things throughout the day on day things I'm pondering about. Like how things are made or how they work. And I tend use to auto correct as a means to learn how to spell certain words as opposed to a crutch that I have to have.  Not sure it would work in a school system though.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
