Cell phone use in schools?


I don’t think that the cell phone use in schools is bad for our children. If we take is as an useful tools to trace our child, how is it wrong to give a cell phone to the children? My both children carry a cell phone in school and they use it as a machine to be in touch with the parents. But, as I have found a lot of articles and reviews that claim it wrong to have a cell phone in the school, I have decided to ask you about the matter “cell phone use in schools”.  Please post your comments here.

<p>I also agree with you that cell phone can be used in schools but only if we take it as an useful tools and for good purpose not for bad . some students &nbsp;take it as a good science gift but some student make wrong use of it that&rsquo;s why many schools are not allowing cell phones in school &nbsp;. only some schools allows cell phones in school . one of the main reason in banning &nbsp;cell phones in schools are cheating in exam . As now a days most of the phones have cameras, text messaging, and Internet connections due to which cheating has become more of a concern with teachers and school authority &nbsp;. These invention has made it easy for students to cheat, whether by taking photos of answers, then texting answers to other students, or looking up answers on the web. All those student who are allowed to have cell phones in class can take photos or send a text message during an exam or quiz. . In addition to issues with cheating, there are several serious cases of students taking inappropriate pictures of other students in locker rooms or bathrooms. in my suggestion only simple phone should be allowed so that they can talk to the concerned person in any emergency .and no camera phone and web enable phone should be allowed . even the parent should not give these type of &nbsp;phone to their child for school .</p>
