Benefit Of Mobile Phone In School

Satisfactory Essays

Mark Brom Ms. Karubas English III Accel 22 December 2017 Phones Nowadays, everyone and their mother has a phone, even those who cannot afford them get them solely because they have become a social norm. However, in terms of school, phones have become both the biggest help, and the biggest nuisance, to teachers everywhere. The real question is, are they more of a help or a hindrance to teachers and schools. Phones help in terms of using things like kahoot and the internet to help with questions that the teacher cannot answer, or while she is busy, but can also hurt the progression and the learning that the children should be receiving. In terms of the beneficial side of having phones, the potential is unlimited. Many people throughout schools have been enjoying the use of phones and their numerous benefits, which include, but are not limited to: music, kahoot, and research. In my personal opinion, music has helped me most through school, I have never gone through a day of high school without listening to music, it keeps me going through the very mundane repetitive school days. Also, kahoot has proved very useful in terms on learning in classes such as French, AP European History, and so many more. I have also used it for research many times, using Google Translate again for French, research for previous English classes and much more. Permitting cell phone use would ultimately encourage personal responsibility, something students of today’s generation severely lack.
