Students are needlessly punished for a malfunctioning chromebook battery and no way to charge their chromebooks. According to Samsung “After a year the chromebook battery lasts about 4 to 5 hours,” but the school day at Hebron Middle School lasts around 6 hours. After one year students are experiencing this problem. A student at Hebron Middle School could use their chromebook in all 8 periods of the day. Once the student reaches 7th or 8th period their chromebooks may die. To help better the Hebron Schools the “No chromebook chargers at school” should be improved because it is ineffective.
The rule states that “Chargers don’t come to school; devices should be fully charged daily.” The rule have proved to be an issue because students already

By changing the rule the school could improve because teachers will not need to loan out as many chargers. The new rule would allow students to not be penalized for bringing their chargers to school, and would even solve the problem of the chromebooks dying randomly. The rule change would let students have more freedom to chose whether or not they bring a …show more content…
The batteries in the chromebooks are malfunctioning instead of changing the batteries, allow chargers at school. Yes, some teachers and principals may disagree but the alternative is making batteries that increase the carbon emissions that hurt the environment. Letting students bring their chargers can even be more cost effective than buying batteries for every student. The improvement to the rule could help improve the school for the
Most of the time, while the teacher is trying to teach, some students get on their Chromebook pretending to work when in reality they are
What were educators thinking when they decided to enforce Chromebooks into the school’s education system? They were thinking about the connection between student and teacher, but they forgot to mention other important details. If Chromebooks are introduced into the school’s system, it would end up being a lot more complicated and a hassle than most would think. Chromebooks should not be introduced to the school’s system due to poor policy in privacy, due to WiFi connectivity problems, and due to conflicts in affordability.

One rule that i strongly should change is the thought of open campus lunch. Over the years, schools with open campus lunch have converted over to closed campus lunches. Meaning the students are to stay on school ground and can not leave during said lunch period, as to where with open campus lunch students are able to leave the school to get food. Schools have changed this due to saftey reasons and complications with students not returning to the school.
Teenagers today always have their eye on their phone, and their grades gradually go down. Many people think that it is because the students don’t pay attention, they do not know why they are not focusing more on their grades rather than everything else in the room. Adolescence will always never pay attention because they live in the moment and don't care what their grades are. Although this phone bucket rule is a terrible idea, it does have a few good
First of all, teachers won't have anything to teach. Teachers are all over chromebooks, because they find websites to help students learn. Teachers always want students to be successful in life, but obviously the school boards really don't care about students being successful since they’re taking chromebooks away.
Chromebooks also offer more learning programs and things like that for students. Noredink, Vocabulary.com and Teentribune are some examples.
Students think they are taking good care of their Chromebooks, but there is a rule getting in the way of that. By allowing their batteries to completely deplete destorys the batteries inside. The lithium-ion batteries lose their ability to hold a charge as they age, and lose that ability even faster if they completely die. New Chromebooks have an average battery life of 7-9 hours on full charge. However, when that time decreases, they can barely last the 8 hour school day, with many over a year old dying in 7th or 8th hour. Chargers should be allowed for Chromebooks over one year old during the day because a Chromebook’s battery life decreases as they are used more, and allowing their batteries to completely deplete can destroy the Chromebooks.
I strongly disagree with this idea because most students don't like being in trouble which resolves disciplinary actions . That has to do with being in trouble because of there actions witch is unacceptable . The reason i say this is that when you get in trouble by the school , law , government , police etc. Its not easy to get out of cause then you have to deal with the parents ,and take consequences in something you do as punishment . So most kids don't like punishment or not having a phone or tablet something they use the most . First, you have to think about what you are about to do or going to do . And how you are going to do it . Students ,teenagers and everyone else may have different rules where they live or how they act
I am convinced many unpleasant things can happen if you take your device to school. Like it might get stolen. What is the bad thing with your phone getting stolen? You have a responsibility by making you sure your cell phone won't crack or get stolen. So it makes you look irresponsible to take care of something. You are losing money it might have been your parents or your.
It cell phones can be a huge threat to school and everyone in it by being used as a bomb or a
Dear Dr. Elena, I appreciate how you are on the students’ side when it come to electronics policy. It is awesome that you made a fifth block for us to do our homework. It helps us so we don’t have to worry about doing as much homework when we are at after school activities, but a change in our school that needs to happen are the lunches. The lunches need to have more time. Us students need lunch time to let all the extra energy drain out so we are calm and ready to learn without distracting anyone in class. We need the time to socialise, so we can talk with friends that we don’t get to see during school. If we do have classes with them we aren’t even allowed to talk with them. We can’t really talk when we have to eat in 25 minutes.
Some students do not use their digital devices for the good that they have, but for the bad. Many students are more likely to get into serious trouble with they law and have serious legal problems. If students are allowed to use their cell phones in school and they get caught doing illegal things on their digital devices such as sexting, they will be punished by the law. This cause major trouble for some students. Many students will also bully other students more during school hours. If bulling numbers go up it will cause many problems for the school administration. Some students may also stop coming to school if bulling gets to severe. Therefore using digital devices in school causes more problems for the students and the school.
In school theirs always been a problem with cell phones and them not doing their homework.
Cell phones aren’t usually that big so it gives the students a great opportunity to cheat. Most of the time during a test, students go to different websites to look for answers .Since they get free Wi-Fi in classrooms; it even becomes easier for them to cheat. In addition to that students can also trade answers with other students in class through Facebook, sms, kik, message and other social apps.Nowadays, cell phones have become one of the most useful source in America. In other words, a month earlier, I was looking through some photographs in my library class .The pictures were about students who cheats on class works, tests, quizzes and homework and can even go to Gail for plagiarism. On the other hand, today’s students take this as a joke. They don’t realize how it affects their grades. You can cheat a lot in life but one day there will be nothing to cheat from or anyone to get the answers from. In spite of this it is not always mandatory for someone to depend on a source more than themselves. This was another reason to explain why students should not be allowed to bring cell phones to school.
