It goes without saying that phones in school can be problematic. Many of us teachers are trying to find ways to incorporate them into our curriculum as research and collaboration tools, with some success. But nothing can fight that dopamine rush that our kids look forward to so much. Maybe they should switch back to sugar. Hyper’s better than apathetic right?

I KID! I did, however, have a parent take a student’s phone away for two weeks during our Meet the Creature conference because he wasn’t working in class. Young man caught up within two days because of all that new found free time, HA!

PHONES AWAY!
