Technology- Asia Mapp

Technology is the world’s new thing now days, it is used for just about anything and almost everywhere including hospitals, office buildings, and fire departments, even in schools. I feel there is no need to ban the use of cell phones in schools they can help in many different ways such as keeping our families updated if there’s a problem at school or we need to be contacted for any family emergency.

As a student at Skyline High School I feel that the use of cell phones should be allowed. In class there are not always enough calculators for every student to use, most likely every student in the room will have a cell phone, and on that cell phone there is always a calculator. Allowing the use of these phones for school use can possibility lower the district’s budget. Every phone has either a memo pad or a notepad to write down important things such as assignments and work needed to be completed or to keep organized. In this world today every teenage student has a cell phone that does help a lot with keeping organized. If students could have their cell phones in class they could put their work into their cell phones with an alarm and never miss an assignment due. I think teachers should give their students a certain amount of time to put their assignments in their phones so they will only be able to use their phones for school related things. During class the teacher may ask the students to research something, while taking the whole class down to the library, many students have internet on their cell phones which could be used at the tip of their fingers. This would save time and would allow the teachers more time to teach. The camera devices on the cell phones can come in handy also, if a student is absent a friend can take a picture of their work and send it to their friend to keep them updated with missing work.
