[quote=Anonymous]I am not an absolutist. I agree that cellphones have no place during instructional time, but I'm less worried about lunch and transitions, particularly in high school. How can kids learn how to use tech responsibly if we take it away from them until they graduate? There were very convincing arguments about flexibility too, about how kids used phones for in-class projects at teachers' discretion prior to the total ban. Why does everything have to be black and white? The people who are cheering about the cellphone ban are now gunning for the iPads and laptops. Which again, I can be convinced really aren't developmentally appropriate in K-2, but older kids gotta learn about it anyway to remain part of an interconnected global society. I remember someone saying in the old AEM that it was just election-year red meat. I agree. [/quote]
