DEVICES IN SCHOOLS:

I remember the times when it wasn’t any sidekicks, I pods, different types of ring tones on your cell phones, and etc. But in the following days these things are here and are growing everyday with new transitions and remodeling. Unfortunately many schools don’t want to allow such things in the building, that’s because the kids take advantage of the devices in the school building. While in the class the kids are playing the ring tones loudly disrupting the lesson, and texting each other instead of writing down notes. That I can understand why the principals are not feeling the new technology, but to say to students don’t bring it to school period isn’t going to solve anything. In many emergencies having a cell phone is very much needed in society today and I pods are something we like to listen to on our way to school, it doesn’t bother anyone. The schools should be stricter then maybe the use of these devices in the building would be limited like, taking it away as soon as you see it, and having the parent come and pick it up, etc. Then the kids would know that you are not playing.
