Abstract

Covid-19 has also had a significant impact on schools, the use of distance learning has raised questions already present, in particular with respect to the meaning of tools and technologies. Leaving aside the aspects related to the use of the network and those of communication, the authors want to provide a brief overview of the fundamental issues related to the use of a smartphone for STEM teaching. A theme that sees two opposing positions (pros and cons) colliding, often unavailable for discussion and dialogue. Without taking a position, the text tackles the problem from three points of view: the hardware, the apps, and some possible activities that can be associated with the main functions activated by the students.
