It is okay if they use them on their breaks. They might need to get in contact with their family or friends. Also, their phones can be used for games such as kahoot. I do not think that younger students should be allowed to though. They will just get distracted and what do they really need it for? They may just be texting their parents because they miss them. They could also lose them or get them stolen very easily. ]]> 2020-10-26 12:40:17 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/861413420 snewman91 https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/862193226 I think that students should have access to their phones during school. I feel that students should be able to have this access for many reasons. One being that if there was an emergency  they would have a way to call for help. Two if they need to use there phone as a calculator or for educational purposes they will have access. And three, if college students can pay for an education and have access to their phones, I feel that school grace students should as well. I feel that this should be allowed, except for during tests. I found this website that goes more into detail on whether or not students should have their phones in class. ]]> 2020-10-26 15:28:00 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/862193226 kgalla https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/863043640 I think that students at the secondary level should be allowed their phones because as long as they are paying attention to your lesson and are performing well in your class, then there should be no reason to stop them unless they are causing interruptions within your class. As we move to middle school and elementary; however, I think that it should have more restrictions. If a student is having an emergency, then they can have access to their phone, but if it is just to be on it during class, it will mostly serve as just a distraction. Because I am going to be a middle school teacher, I do believe that students should be allowed access to their phones because it is not school property. This why I would provide brain breaks where they do an activity on their phone and can contact or message whoever they may want to socialize with in that time frame. ]]> 2020-10-26 18:16:59 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/863043640 taykay961 https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/864258219 I feel students should be able to have their phone. They should be able to use them in the hallways, lunch or downtime in a classroom. Their phones can be used for valuable links such as Kahoot, if you don't allow phones you are gonna spend majority of your class time trying to keep them off of their devices.]]> 2020-10-27 03:12:38 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/864258219 denisegonia https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/866661509 I do not feel that student's should not be allowed to have access to their phones during classroom instruction unless the teacher suggest it. It becomes a major distraction because there are no filters blocking the students from accessing unnecessary content that could be browsed. It can also be disrespectful to the teacher who is trying to teach students. I do feel that they could allow certain times to where the students can check their phones during the day.]]> 2020-10-27 17:04:31 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/866661509 ahoelzeman5 https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/867380031 I do think that students should have access to their smart phones during school, but only if they have free time and only if the class as a whole is caught up with assignments. I feel like if one student is allowed on their phone while others are working, then everyone else will be distracted by the student on their phone and not get their assignments finished. ]]> 2020-10-27 19:48:01 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/867380031 wisnermollie https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/870193529 I do believe that students should have access to their smart phones in school, but I believe that it should be little time they spend on them. I think smart phones should be used in free time that the students have throughout the day or if they need to contact their parent. By taking the phones, you are losing that trust between the student and the teacher. This video shows a great debate over this topic.]]> 2020-10-28 15:52:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/870193529 zharvey2 https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/875604252 I personally do believe that students should have access to their phones during school, but to a certain extent. There are instances where a phone would come in handy for a classroom, like Kahoot or quick access to a calculator or a timer. There are times when a phone should not be accessible during school, like during a lecture or while doing independent classwork. ]]> 2020-10-30 04:43:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/875604252 charmon111 https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/877957127 I would say that students should not have access to their phones during school (or at least in class). I actually went to a high school where our phones had to be completely turned off and in our lockers. If we got caught with them, it was an instant detention. Now, I don't agree with that.. I think it was a little silly and unnecessary. I think it is fine for student to check their phones in the halls, at lunch, and at their lockers; but I definitely don't think they should be allowed to have them out in class. ]]> 2020-10-30 21:38:52 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/877957127 chococat9 https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/880555855 I believe students should be able to have their phones at school, but during class they should be put away. Just like in college. Turn the ringer off and step outside if you need to check your phone or make a call. ]]> 2020-11-01 22:10:02 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/880555855 presnullsabrina https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/1365160173 I believe that students should be able to access their phones sometimes, not all the time. The times they should be able to is when there is an assignment in class that requires them to use their phones. Besides that, the only other time they should be used if its for an emergency.]]> 2021-03-29 17:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/1365160173 jailengriffin19 https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/1380203171 I think students should be allowed to carry their phones with them, but that they should be put away in class or at least with the ringer off. If there is an emergency, they should be allowed to know about it immediately and without their phones, they wouldn't. They should stay off of them though and should get warnings if they don't that they can be taken away. ]]> 2021-04-04 02:59:12 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/1380203171 swicegoodtynley https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/1380299345 I believe that students should be able to have their phones with them in case of emergency, but I do not think they should be able to be on them at any point during the day. ]]> 2021-04-04 05:33:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/1380299345 miathompson1119 https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/1381390985 I believe students should have their phone in school encase their is an emergency or they have lunch breaks but I do believe that when students enter classrooms they should have to turn their phones into a cubby and they'll be able to retrieve it after class ends. This would take the use of the phone problem away and I would make sure that there was no way for the students to steal or lose their phones. ]]> 2021-04-04 21:21:31 UTC https://padlet.com/lnbranch12/75e5a1jrhkb1b8bs/wish/1381390985
