I couldn’t care less. I honestly wish cell phones could be de-invented most days as my students completely lack the ability to put them down for even a nanosecond to actually listen to what I have to say.
Well, can’t go backwards in history. Forward is all we have. But you can thank Apple for the current state of affairs as they brought this new device to the masses. Apple is definitely to blame on that count!
Easy solution. Just prohibit the use of smartphones in your classroom. Anybody that violates that edict flunks out of your class automatically.
All smartphones are nearly alike these days. I have a LG G3 and like it because the battery life is great and it came with fewer apps and the easy ability to root it (with LG’s and T-Mobiles ok with it) so I can get rid of other apps that came with the phone and also change the look of the phone with themes. My Samsung Galaxy S4 I had was difficult to root and the battery life was not so good because of the imbedded apps. Android is the best OS so there. : )
