I present in this article some thoughts about an experience that smartphones were not used as a teaching tool for teaching school subjects. Throughout the development process of my masters dissertation that analyzed the use of smartphones possibilities in school learning situations I came across another perspective to consider the use of new information technologies and their mobile communication devices in educational practices. This perspective refers not to ways to use these devices for tasks aimed at learning, but the use of its resources on educational experiences that are creative processes. Based on Leite (2011), consider the ways to develop educational practices should go beyond the strictly educational and technical work designing, making otherwise possible spaces where emerging educational experiences. I therefore consider that it is necessary to examine whether smartphones can be considered powerful tools for the implementation of educational practices in which creation can be effective as machinic production (GUATTARI, 1996). This analysis should be carried out observing how the intersections of the social machine (school) with technical equipment (smartphones) can occur extending the possibilities of creation. Experimentation in educational practices will, therefore, beyond the mere possibility of finding new ways of teaching contente.
