Right, and I encourage students to look things up instead of asking me. I had (and this was weird, but it happened more than once) a student who insisted that he writes essays on his phone -- not even a laptop. He took notes on his phone and like that. Convergence has made the phone and associated technology very helpful in class. So we take the good, we take the bad.At our local high school students have the option of all their books being digital and viewing them on their tablet/laptop. So both of those are now present in every classroom and there is no putting the toothpaste back in the tub
Right. A parent could still always call the school itself and ask to talk to their kid if it’s something sooooo important it can’t waitCell phones are not "necessary" for safety. People existed long before that technological blight ever came upon us.
Isn’t that a thing already?So where does each poster stand on using 'laptops' in the classroom.
Forgetting 'cell phones' for a moment, just the use of laptops in the classroom.

Haven’t been in a school in a long time, but I assumed most kids take notes and stuff on laptops already

Supplied by the school. The laptop stays in the classroom.
I just wanted to see if posters support or oppose the use of laptops in the classroom.
I oppose the "Use" of a cell phone in class, simply because they have a laptop.
A child might try to say or ask "Why can't I just do it on my phone"
Simple answer, "because you have a laptop",
and filters can control what they can and cannot do on the laptop.
Cell phones are allowed in my school, but they must remain in their backpack.
Sadly, we have to watch carefully for students trying to sneak use of their phone.
If they get caught, the phone gets sent to the office, and the student can get it at the end of the day (1st offense).

If a school district cannot afford computers or laptops is this fair?
That's not what I have found in my classes.Not "very helpful," very distracting, very disruptive, very negative.

Do you want to come visit my classes? You can decide something is suspicious if you want, especially in the lack of any supporting detail. But the proof is in the pudding.Highly suspicious.
I would like to visit, because I have been in hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of classrooms and I have seen the effect of just having cell phones around and what you are saying sure sounds like a big fat load of bullshit to me.Do you want to come visit my classes?

Great. I have almost 30 years in the classroom but feel free to have an opinion about what I live each day.I would like to visit, because I have been in hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of classrooms and I have seen the effect of just having cell phones around and what you are saying sure sounds like a big fat load of bullshit to me.
