SCVNGR: Cell Phone Scavenger Hunt Builder!
Most of the scavenger hunt type applications online only use smartphones, so it is fantastic to come across one that is more accessible (since over 60% of cell phone users still have basic phones). It is very easy to create your own SMS scavenger hunts. Thank you to Jeffrey Branzburg for pointing me towards a resource called SCVNGR. The hunt can be anywhere!

TextClues.A Scavenger Hunt for Cell Phones
It is a very simple way to create SMS text message scavenger hunts for any cell phone. I have been reviewing a new resource called TextClues. What I like about the resource is that it is much less complicated than a SCVNGR type resource and the teacher can preset the hunt and then the students can text into a simple keyword code to begin their hunt. Simple, simple! My only negative: it is not free. wish they had an educator version with some free options. Right now it costs 14.99 for 100 clues (I cannot figure out if this is the number of clues you create or send?).

Addressing Some More Critiques of Mobile Learning
Many argue that mobile devices are far too distracting as students focus using their devices for sending SMS messages or surfing the internet during lessons rather than pay attention to lessons.  Why not allow students to use their iPod to listen to an audiobook or to use their cell phone to either access the web or to access their productivity tools?

ClassPager for SMS and Polling Students!
It also allows you to set up sms polls (they can be free text polls). In addition it DOES NOT use shortcodes (it uses real phone numbers) so it will work with just about any cell phone (YAY for Metro PCS!). am really enjoying using a new resource called ClassPager. It is 100% free! Additionally, it is private. classpager metropcs

Create an Email address for your phone!
site called Mailbliss , which allows anyone to create an email address for their phone. Well, once you create an email address for your phone, anyone can use that email address to send you a text message! The email turns into an sms message that you receive on your phone. can envision many teachers using this (especially those who do not want to give away their cell phone number) to text message with parents and students. mailbliss sms textmessagingThere is an interesting web2.0 Why is this beneficial? It is 100% free and very easy to use.
