I share in your disappointment of developing the app. I am not sure that my colleagues would be on board either. On the other hand, if I put something together to prove to my principal the benefit of the app, I could possibly get it started. The students in my school have the same issues with abusing cell phone use. I agree if they don't use it properly, then they don't get to use it. If you have any suggestions for me and my pursuit of the app, PLEASE let me know. Thank you
At my school we have some colleagues who are for using technology and some that are against it. I have been somewhat against it because as others have mentioned, how do you limit its usage to what you want them to do? I am curious to try to incorporate something but I am still doing research.I have been looking at the PE geek apps which I think will be beneficial once I figure out how to utilize it and figure out how to control the usage of their phones. Have you had any more luck with control?

This is definitely had hot topic. We are supposed to be a 21st Century school yet we are not allowed to use cell phones or IPADs. There are so many apps out there that I am sure doing rotations to 4-5 different centers utilizing Smart Boards, computers, IPADs, and phones could collect enough data to document something. I don't know I feel like we are all trying to play catch up.
