CELLY

Teachers are continually fighting against the ever-growing list of distractions that a smart phone offers to bored or shy students in the back of the room.

Celly is a text-messaging network that allows anyone to create a network anywhere- at a rally, event, in the classroom, or on a field trip using smartphones.

Teachers that have used this in their classrooms have noted that those who normally never speak up…do.

It forces students to write their thoughts clearly and concisely.

Rather than fighting the tide against texting, instructors are using it for academic purposes.
