I do not mind students to have cell phones in class for high
school students. The students are already carrying their cell phones on them
and really have grown up with them. To most students it is an extension of
their hand. With smart phones especially, there are a lot of functions that can
be used for educational purposes.
Like physical behavior there is a correct way to act and a
wrong way to act. By allowing cell phones in the classroom it simply gives our
students another resource to utilize, but we must teach them how to use them
appropriately. When we teach our students how to use their cell phones
appropriately, they will be able to use this knowledge at their future
workplace. So we are not only teaching our students how to use their phones
appropriately in school but teaching them what is appropriate in the workplace
as well.
