Nice to read @rooneey, beautifully explained different aspect of using cell phones in school. Well smartphones, tablets and other devices can be very handy at school. Curious about something the teacher said? A quick Internet search can turn up more facts. Want to prepare charts and present top-notch class reports? The positive side.
The negatives - In extreme cases, using mobile devices and social media too much can turn into an addiction. Even where phone use isn’t quite addictive, the habit of using mobile technology can pull at our attention,
We can divert our attention; For example, turn your cellphone or tablet off, or at least put it in airplane mode. Then you won’t wind up checking texts or using social-media sites without thinking.
Closing your laptop or tablet and putting your phone away more often could be good advice even outside the classroom.

Just following you and would love to read more on such topics.
