Stephanie Loomis (Teaching and Learning) has published a chapter, Mobile Phones, Arts Integration, and English Language Arts, in the book Affordances and Constraints of Mobile Phone Use in English Language Arts Classrooms.  This chapter considers the affordances of smartphones as tools for arts integration in English language arts classrooms. It discusses the importance of students as creators of content and how teachers may capture the social tools already within student possession to function as learning tools as well. Arts-based instruction is briefly discussed as an important element for students' full participation in the multiliteracies that make up much of communication in modern society. While literacy in the form of reading and writing must always be the goal of the ELA teacher, it is also important to recognize the role of multiple literacies as legitimate forms of text. The chapter also includes specific ideas for students' smartphone compositions that teachers may consider.
