YOUR PHONE OR YOUR EDUCATION??
Have you ever just sat and thought about how much you could be missing what the teacher is saying in class because you are too busy on your phone texting or browsing the web. While cell phones are very fun use they can also be a tremendous distraction and rudeness in the classroom not just to you but also your classmates and your teacher. Most teachers usually take your phone as soon as they see you using it in class, some give it back after class others take it to the office and you don't get it back until the end of the day. While cell phones in the classroom has it pros it also has some major cons; like cheating on tests Zach Miners wrote that about one third of teens use their cell phones to text their friends answers on tests or they themselves keep the answers on their phones to look at while taking the test, this is a very big problem everywhere and its only getting worst. Administrators think that they have found a way to make people stop cheating on tests by creating cheat resistant computers, but the thing is people will always find other ways to cheat on tests if not by the use of their cell phones.
