Analysis: Are Cell Phone Bans Worth The Trouble

Using the search engine Google. I found an article from the journal.com asking “Are Cell Phone Bans Worth the Trouble. In this particular school, if students were caught on their technology devices the first time they would have to pay a fee of $15 to get their cell phones back or convince a parent to come and pick it up. The second time the student is caught on their device a parent has to come and pick up the phone and also pay the fee. According to the article 32% of school districts had the same policy for personal technology devices. Although in 2010 51% of principals said they were going to allow the use of personal devices in school. In the particular school the principal came to agree with the 51% of the principals allowing students
to use personal technology devices in school. He came to agreement that as much as they would like to prohibit personal devices, the district couldn't keep the students from using their technology devices. How schools have integrated mobile devices in the classroom as a vehicle to enhance learning is when it came to the classroom the use of personal technology devices was left up to the teachers. Often times teachers allowed students to use their personal devices when the student has forgotten their school laptops. Other teachers embraced the use of persona technology devices. These teachers used the students personal technology devices to their advantage to enhance the students learning.
