et al. because notetaking doesn\u2019t keep their  minds busy enough\u2026. if my theory is true, then we can minimize digital  distractions by giving our students more to think about and do during  class. and since those little smart phones our students carry around  with them have more computing power than the computers that put humans  on the moon, perhaps we can think of some ways to use those powerful  devices to engage our students in learning?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<address>image: \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/46259794@n02\/6732937215\/\">questions from the
