Should Electronics Be Allowed In School

Should phones be allowed in school? Many people argue a lot about this. In many schools there is a controversy about this. Some people think that it is a good thing to have phones in school, while others´ do not. Many teenagers have cell phones nowadays. About 78% of teenagers aged 12 to 17 have cell phones. Technology has a great impact on teens. They have good ways in which teens can enjoy them, but also they have bad ways. Many adults worry about the bad things that technology can do to the youth. They worry that the youth might get to addicted to phones. Adults also worry about how it can damage their brains. Many researchers are saying that teenagers are getting to addicted to phones. One of the symptoms of this is by texting all day, and by also feeling the need to check your phone everyday. However In my paragraph, I strongly go for phones not being allowed in school.

Are you always on your phone? Either Snapchatting, on Instagram, scrolling through your twitter feed? It can be pretty temping to pick up your phone and do this stuff in class but you can use them in good ways in school. George Washington Middle School currently has cell phones banned in class. Although most teachers think that cell phones are a distraction, cell phones should be allowed in class because students feel anxious without their phones, there are many educational uses, and allowing phones is more convenient.

When people talk about cell phones in classrooms, people can be very split. People say that it can distract students and fellow classmates, with text messaging and video games so present with our day and age. But, what I believe is that with new and upcoming age of technology, Cellphones are going to be much more relevant in the world we live in. This is the reason students should be allowed to use this tool in places like the classroom.

Tap Tap, Tap. Students are constantly using cellphones in class when they should be paying attention to important materials in class. Some schools have banned cell phones. Some schools are taking advantage of cell phones and trying to them to open new possibilities for new learning experience. A cell phone is a piece of technology that can have a positive and negative effect. For example you can use it find out what you need to study. It depends on the user. Cell phones can also be used to cheat and then you wouldn’t be learning anything, except how to cheat. Do you really think that we should allow these with children that don’t know how to use them correctly? I wouldn’t. Although cell phones can open new opportunities to learning, we can not assume that students will use them for academic reasons. Therefore, cell phones are not the best thing to have in school, they shouldn't be allowed in school to ensure a good environment for the future generations of mankind. The negative effects from cell phones can distract kids from the subject they are learning in school, reduce the amount of respect students show teachers, and make schools less empathetic. The only thing that schools will get from allowing cellphones in class is nothing but trouble.

Most schools do not allow the use of cell phones in school or in class, so the school feels like changing their policy of cell phone use might be a bad idea. Students could take advantage or miss use the privilege of phones in class. There will always be students who act out in class, but the school must discipline those who do and reward those who do not.

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.

In each school there are absurd rules; ours by far has the most. Ok I get it, the staff is trying to us learn with a cleaner environment, but they have to be able to understand that phones CAN help you learn! Phones give us opportunities to hold many useful things such as calculators, passwords, and our schedules. I can see that they would want to take it away because it is “distracting”, but I honestly think that it is more distracting not having it then actually having it, now all we can think about is checking our phones. Although much of the public debate is against it, there are pros associated with allowing cell phones in school. These advantages should not be ignored since cellphones in schools can actually add value to the

Electronics are believed to interfere with learning. Jose Antonio Bowen states in his article, “NO: Classrooms Must Be a Place of Focus and Mental Stillness,” that instead of improving education, technology “doesn’t solve the problem, it only brings it into the classroom.” However, these problems could be prevented if students were given restrictions while still having the ability to find different and unique ways to boost their knowledge. In “YES: New Tools Let Students Learn More, and More Deeply,” Lisa Nielsen explains that just because they have access to electronic devices does not necessarily mean that they are doing something other than texting or cheating, and that teachers are monitoring their students at the best of their ability.

If your are allowed a cell phone in school and you get caught doing something you shouldn't, you could get in trouble. If cell phones weren't allowed in school there wouldn't be problems over the phone. If you have a phone in class it is a distraction from your learning. If your were a teacher would you want your students to have phones. Students would be on their phone while they should be doing homework. As students we go to school for seven hours. In those seven hours there is no reason they need to be on there phone. School is for learning, not looking at a phone.

Should cellphones be allowed in school ? With the increasing use of electronic technology most every student has a cellphone. some feel that cellphones are useful in the classroom. Others feel that cellphones use is not useful in the classroom. After much thought and research it is my opinion that cellphones should be allowed in school.

Many places in society are setting policies on digital device. The principal at my school has also set policies on banning cell phones in school. Students should not be permitted to use cell phones in school. Using cell phones during school allows students to cheat. Students will be more distracted by cell phones and pay less attention to the teacher and to the lesson. Students have a higher chance of getting in trouble if they use cell phones in school rather than if they are not allowed to use digital devices in school.

Kardaras claims that technology cannot be used in schools, however I recommend that technology should be used in schools because it helps students keep in good health, save money and get good grades. To begin with, I think computers are easy to carry. Specifically, textbooks are too heavy for students to carry resulting a lot of students get shoulder disease. If they have e-books in computers, they would carry a computer to school without a lot of textbooks. In addition, e-books are cheaper than paper books. If a student has e-books, each semester he could save more than 400 dollars. That would ease students’ financial pressures. Furthermore, students can restudy lectures again and again because all lectures are on the internet. They can arrange

I think that it is okay to bring a phone in school and in class, but the teacher should only give the students one minute to look at their phone so that they will not get distracted while the teacher is teaching. Most of the things we do in our everyday lives includes phone, phone also helps us to search for information, I think phone should only be allowed when you have something to search on subject related.

In the article, “Why a Leading Professor of New Media Just Banned Technology Use in Class,” the author states that the use of technology while learning is not rationale. Professor Clay Shirky’s decision to ban students to use technology in his classroom is that those devices are distracting their learning. I do agree with Professor Shirky’s decision when he switched it from “allowed unless by request” to “banned unless required,” because this will not allow the students to use their device unless the professor allows them making the students feel a lot more restricted. Whereas if the devices are allowed unless the professor tells them to put it away, students will feel more at ease when they use their cell phones even when it is not related
