Ban the use of cell phones during instructional time in high schools.

Created by S.W. on January 26, 2013

Some high schools have started the "bring your own device" trial.

Since my local high school has started this, an uproar of photos and statuses posted onto Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook have filled my news-feeds.

If students are using their phones to take photos instead of listening to a teacher, then valuable time is being lost. Test scores will eventually go down if they haven't all ready.
