Should they grow up without learning how to focus and always be on harmful social media? I think allowing students to have phones in the classroom is destroying their future without them knowing.]]> 2022-02-28 19:22:16 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070162513 jcou9 https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070164225 Imagine you are a teacher. You walk into your classroom and all your students are staring down at their phones. Texting, and scrolling social media when they are supposed to be listening to you. Are you okay with that?]]> 2022-02-28 19:23:19 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070164225 https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070164633 yes

The answer is no, you wouldn't want that. Students should not be allowed to have their phones out in classrooms.]]> 2022-02-28 19:23:38 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070164726 https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070165530 Imagine a classroom where all the students have their cellphones. They all have A's in the gradebook, but only because they use their phones to cheat. They never pay attention because they are distracted by their phones. I think that having phones in class causes the students to not learn as well.]]> 2022-02-28 19:24:05 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070165530 Imagine living in a world where you get home, day after day, tired from spending your life and money on your job, only to be giving away a portion of your income to college students. Some of those students don't know what they're doing there and others are there to live the "college experience" of drinking and partying. https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070166730 2022-02-28 19:24:48 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070166730 https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070168866 Is it fair that not everyone can go to college just because they can't afford it? Would it be right that the same people that can't go to college get judged for it? No, it is not. This is why college should be free for everyone.]]> 2022-02-28 19:26:00 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070168866 College is a great way to enhance your knowledge; however, it's too expensive. This leads to my question, what would happen if college was free? I believe if colleges were free then it will help people have amazing opportunities. Colleges should be free, because it benefits people who can't afford to attend college, people who want a free, accessible education, and for people who want to go to the college of their choice. https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070170268 2022-02-28 19:26:50 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070170268 https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070173438 Think about a classroom where everyone is paying attention and learning respectfully. Sounds pretty perfect, right? Now imagine those same students had access to distracting electronics and social media. If you know students, you know they would get very distracted from what they're supposed to be doing. Does this sound like a good school experience to you?]]> 2022-02-28 19:28:40 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones411/4y1acs0cnlbpk07o/wish/2070173438
