Although phones may be used to help students with work, North Eugene high school should ban phones because how much of a distraction they can be in a classroom. Schools that have banned phone at school, 82% of students have a phone on at school.(Document #3) If North Eugene at least has a policy with not having students bring the phones in class, that will help with test scores and participation in class. “Students with laptops had a lower test result than those without. The reason? They were not paying attention to their teachers. We should expect the same thing from cell phones.” (Document #6) When using technology at school it may help but there also needs to be an extent to where it needs to stop.

Practically everyone owns a cell phone. Cell phones can be valuable tools. They’re helpful if you’d like to call someone or want to research something up on the web. All though they have their practical uses they can also be used to just waste time and distract you from things you should be doing. High Schools are having a huge problem with this. With everything available to them on their phones many students are becoming obsessed with them. Instead of doing their work in class they are on their phones. Different high schools are handling

Some can argue that cell phone use during school is highly uncivilized but it's extremely useful in many different ways and in different scenarios.Instead of viewing cellphones and other gadgets as negative additive distractions , we should view the positive side of celluar devices. Cell phones can help resolve issues and help make the school environment much easier, however do believe there should be restrictions , for instance not to use a phone while the teacher is having a discussion or teaching lesson. If a student can obey these rules and not use it in a disrespectful manner , then there should not be any issues. Cellular phones should be allowed in schools for threatening emergencies, to avoid double standards between teachers and students and most of all to help students with research purposes.

From personal experience, I can say that high school students are going to have cell phones in class regardless of the punishments associated with getting caught; the main reason is that they seldom get caught. With one teacher and roughly thirty students, it is easy to sneak by the teacher’s gaze and send a text message here or there or find the score to the big game that you missed. Michael Rich, pediatrician and media expert, says, “Pandora’s box is open here… What we need to do is take control of them instead of them control us” (Teachers vs. Texting). To help reduce these disruptions from occurring, we need to incorporate cell phones into high school classroom with the other technologies to promote interactive and kinesthetic learning.

Cell phones are distracting in school and disrupt learning. Students should always be giving their teacher their undivided attention. Cell phones in school create problems and they affect students’ grades. Although some may claim these reasons to be true, they are undeniably wrong. The proponents of cell phones should not be allowed in school argue, “We know for a fact that the use of cell phones on school property around the country has led to a number of problems around safety.” This is wrong because cell phone use on school grounds is only beneficial to individuals on and off school property. Cell phones do not necessarily prevent problems, but they do help in times of emergencies. They promote safety in situations such as school shootings or hostage situations. The proponents of cell phones should not be allowed in school also argue “Student’s whose minds wander during a lecture or discussion may find the temptation of texting instead of listening hard to resist.” While this is true, it is up to the student to pay attention. However, texting instead of listening is the same as doodling and not listening, or playing on a school issued laptop even after being told to put it away. It is up to the student to restrain from texting in class. The more schools put an emphasis on no phones in school the more

I think phones should be allowed in school. My first reason for having this opinion is because they sometimes need to contact their parents. The second reason is because the phone has many uses. The third reason for my opinion is that students often need to contact the teachers as well.

Hmm, phones in the classroom! What do you think? That is a debate between billions of people in the world today. Children all over the world have phones, but they can not have them out during school hours. Cell phones are important to so many kids and adults. These devices have been around for so long, and many people can not live without them. All around the school campus, students are miserable without their phones. In the world today, about three-fourths of the U.S. population have phones. A cell phone is an important thing to some people. Without cell phones, kids wouldn't have access to their social media accounts like Snapchat, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and more. So take this into consideration, even if it is in one class, students should be allowed to get on their cell phones during school hours.

The students would not have to make time to go to the computer lab to use a computer, they could instantly research at their desk (Funding , 2014). For students to use a cell phone in the classroom, they would have to be greatly monitored to keep them focused on research, not playing games, texting, or browsing social media. If the students are not monitored when using a cell phone in class, their learning process is hindered greatly. Statistics show that seventy-three percent of teachers admitted that they or their students use cell phones in the classroom (Bautista, 2013). Cell phones can be a distraction for teachers as well as students, if teachers are too wrapped up in their social networking profiles and not concerned with the students sitting before them, they are failing to do their job

Although some people think that if phones are allowed in school the students will play games and text each other during class. They also would find it as a distraction to the students that don’t have phones. Though it would be pretty hard for students to play games and text each other if the teachers are monitoring their class to make sure that the students are doing what they're supposed to do.

One reason why cell phones should not be in allowed in school is because kids cheat with their cell phones. 35% of teens admit to using cell phones to cheat while in school. Also some kids that use their cell phones in school to cheat don’t admit to it. More than half the kids admit to cheating. But cell phone now and days are a real game changer for education. Parents need to be notice about this because if the kids parents were right next to them during school I bet they wouldn’t cheat. Kids always find a way to cheat but tool now and days are a big

Should cell phones be allowed at school? I do not believe that cell phones should be allowed at school.

I feel that cell phones should be allowed in school for many reasons. One of the reasons being that we live in a crazy world were anything and everything can happen. Sometimes we need to get away from the school or your being bullied and you need a parent. With a cell phone that is very useful. Sometimes you feel sick and the nurse wont send you home if you feel that bad you can call or text your mom.

Disrupting class with texting, playing video games, inappropriately using the photography feature, or receiving calls can affect students’ class participation grades as well. Some school take the phones from the students and never return them; other schools keep them until the end of the school day Others label the phones and place them in a container on the teacher’s desk until the end of class. California and Kentucky as well as other states impose fines if a driver is caught texting while driving. Scheduling and safety are the main reasons parents want their children to have access to cell phones during school hours.

Smartphones have become a part of everyone’s body. Almost everything can be done through smart phones. Paying bills, doing grocery, buying food, and more time consuming tasks can all be done almost instantly by smartphones. Many jobs and institutions today do not allow the use of smartphones during a certain time, especially schools. Prohibition of cell phones in school is a good idea to prevent students from getting distracted. However, high school students should be allowed to access their cell phones at school, because high school students are mature enough to use their cell phones productively and beneficially. Having access to internet is very important to high school students. Many students could not afford to have all kinds of devices, such as laptop, tablets, and cell phones. Entirely banning the usage of cell phones can make students hate the school causing them to be more arrogant.
