[quote=Anonymous]My class put the phone in their slot (each has its own key) on their way into class. If they want to use it during class they take it to corner. Like a book corner but with quiet phone use allowed. They each get 1 cell phone pass a week and 1 emergency pass for the semester. They put their pass in the slot, start the 6 minute timer, take their phone to corner, return their phone and turn off the timer before it beeps. If the timer beeps they don’t get a pass next week. If I hear them talking they don’t get a pass next week. So they basically get 5 minutes a week to “waste”. If they don’t have a phone they still get a pass. They can’t use the passes during instructional time, only independent work time unless it’s an emergency. At the end of class I pass out the phones so everyone has about 1-2 minutes to check their messages. So easy and all are happy. This year I’m adding a charging station. [/quote]
