Abstract
Imagine the looks I got from my freshmen composition students as I started class with these words: fear, surprise, confusion. Is he going to take them away? Is he testing to see who will take out their phones in class? Is this a trick? Countless memories of teachers proclaiming their classroom a “no cell phone zone” must have flooded their brains as their faces quickly became painted with thick apprehension. As the students dug through their bags and pockets, I presented a website over the previous night’s reading onto the projection screen—a poll created on the website PollEverywhere.com .
