Now, one of the objections is "expense." I send a note home the first day of class explaining that we do use the texting feature of the cell phone (not the Internet feature as that it expensive now) and ask if the student has unlimited texting. If they don't have unlimited texting, I ask if the student has permission to send about 10 text messages the first week of school and 2-3 thereafter. If not, the student doesn't use their cell phone and uses an alternative (using the Google Cell phone text simulator.) I want them to know how to use the cell phone. Now if you want to see my own lesson plan and outline for how I start the year with these, please see the post Kicking the School Year Off Web 2.0 Style with Cell Phones.
