setting up the classroom norms for when it’s appropriate to use a phone – and when it is not – is

Lisa Highfill, an instructional technology coach at the Pleasanton Unified public and
secondary school district in Pleasanton, California, believes letting students have phones helps
them prepare for higher education and eventually the workplace. “How many people go to work
each day and turn their phone in?” she asks. “To me, getting ready for career and college is
learning how to avoid the distraction of your phone.”

Parental debate: Should your kid have a cellphone in school?

Law

prohibiting the use
Lawmakers in France recently passed a ban on the use of smartphones in schools,
affecting students in their early to middle-teens. In U.S. school districts cell phone regulations in
school are all over the map; parents and teachers are divided on how to prohibit or permit phone
use in the classroom.

Some schools have students stash their phones in their lockers – as they do for middle
schoolers in my Northern New Jersey town. Others have kids place them in a canvas “pocket
chart” – essentially a hanging shoe organizer – in the classroom.

What most everyone agrees on is that screen-time addiction is a problem for young and
old, an issue that companies such as Apple, Google and Facebook are finally tackling with
recently announced software updates. You hear all too often how kids who are fixated
on smartphone screens are only modeling the behavior of their parents. (It’s also not unheard of
that a teacher also may use a phone in the classroom, to check on his or her own family at home.)

According to nonprofit family media watchdog Common Sense Media, 24 percent of kids
from 8 to 12 years old have their own smartphone and 67 percent of their teenage counterparts
do, with tweens using an average of about six hours’ worth of entertainment media daily.

5 Compounding the confusion is the age at which families give their kids a phone – often,
but not always, when the youngster is about to enter middle school. But what effect does a kid
who has a phone that’s visible at school have on a classmate who doesn’t have his or her own
handset? It may be distracting for others when those bright little screens are out during classroom
activities.

6 Keeping all this in mind, there are many arguments made for and against a stricter
cellphone-use policy in schools.
7 “Have a plan, not a ban,” says Liz Kline, vice president for education at Common Sense
Education in the San Francisco Bay Area, a group whose mission is to help kids thrive in a world
of media and technology. “There are legitimate learning contexts for using devices in the
classroom,” Kline says, whether students are making movies or studying photography.

104 Kline adds another dimension to the let-kids-have-phones-in-school argument. In some
lower-income areas where there’s concern surrounding the digital divide, the school might offer
the kind of speedy internet access that is not available at home. “I think there is some nuance
around this,” she says.

20 “When we’re asking these 12 to 13 year olds to carry the phone and not be on them, we
100 percent know that’s not happening,” says Delaney Ruston, a physician and director of the
documentary “Screenagers: Growing Up in the Digital Age.” “You can go into any classroom or
ask any middle schooler, and they will tell you consistently how they and/or their friends are
sneaking being on the phones during class times.

The consequences? According to the “Away For The Day” initiative Ruston developed
with the team behind “Screenagers” to try to institute policies requiring phones to be put away,
56 percent of middle schools allow students to carry phones on them all day, yet 82 percent of

22 The Away For The Day website cites various academic studies that point to potential
negative outcomes of classroom phone use. In one such study, 75 percent of teachers
reported that the attention spans of students have decreased. In another study, students regularly
interrupted by text messages had test scores that were 10.6 percent lower.

Ruston believes that putting the phones away can improve a child’s emotional well-being
in school and help with their focus in and out of the classroom. “Kids nowadays already have a

24 And while she recognizes that a teacher might ask a kid to pull out a phone during a
given lesson, “to do X, Y, Z … the reality is that many of these kids now on their personal device
have gotten so many notifications that they’re actually not going to whatever the teacher is
saying they should be doing, but instead sending and receiving messages or going onto their
video games.
25 “You’re already going to have those struggles with (school supplied) educational

devices,” Ruston adds, “but it gets exponentially more challenging when it’s a personal device.”
Even if a device on a student’s desk is turned off, the worry is that it still becomes a

27 Ruston also dismisses the safety argument. She pointed to an NPR report in
which security experts have said that letting a kid have a phone in the classroom during a
lockdown makes them less safe, not more. When students should be quiet, for example, a ringing
person withagan

youngsters in an emergency might jam communications and interfere with first responders. And
the kids might miss instructions from the authorities.
