The teacher is seems to be the one sending out the message to the students, you can tell because of the enlarged phone screen that shows the message the teacher is sending to the students. In this Cartoon it is showing how kids tend to use their phones during the school day a lot. And so the teacher has found out a way for the students to use their phones, and to get work done for him, by using his phone and messaging them all saying to turn in their homework via text.  

There is a teacher at the front of the class and there is students holding up their phones as if they were recording whatever the teacher was doing. There’s a caption at the bottom showing what the teacher in the class is telling the students. The message is that students need to take notes on paper instead of taking videos which is the easier way of “taking notes”. ]]> 2018-04-03 16:39:46 UTC https://padlet.com/rebv9686/i4xqlr5mfij6/wish/248201880
