Social Media
There are students who live on social media outlets. You observe two students making a video in your classroom during a lesson. It is obvious they have consideration for you or the students working on the assignment. How should this be handled? |

I have had this happen. I immediately asked the students if they could please put their phones away while they were working. The students were harmless and put their phones away. I was prepared to contact their parents if they did choose to make an issue out of filming during class. A meeting after class to remind them about "time and place" and this... was not the place. I made my feelings known to the students. |

The teacher should address this as an issue with classroom management. Ensure students are aware of the established rules and follow through with consequences. Focusing on the "ring leader" may help. |

This could be good for some teachers and not good for others, depending on what works for you. |

It is important to give students a chance to correct their behavior so first provide them a warning. If it continues, talk to the students one on one. Finally, if that does not work it may be best to contact the parents about concerns. |

Starting off with warning are always a good way to go. |

I think by having specific rules in place for social media and electronics should be in the classroom. Maybe incorporate social media into a lesson to give the students that's "thrill" of being on it but also doing work, monitoring this of course would be a given. |

I would tell the students to put their phone away letting them know that this is not the time nor place for making videos. If the behavior continues I would tell the whole class that there are to be no phone use allowed unless you tell them. I would also contact the students parents if they continue to not follow the directions. |

Students should be told to get off their phones and put them in their backpacks. Then I think it would be a good idea to split up the two students who were making the video and put them in different groups. They should also get a warning and be warned of what their consequence will be if it happens again. |

One approach that could help in solving this distracting situation is to address the class as a whole in regard to classroom policies and procedures in relation to respecting others' right to learn without being subjected to distraction. This ties into the teaching social concepts about respect and consideration for their peers and teachers. |

Something that could work well for that class is phone pockets. These could be used just during instructional time and will be visible in the front of class so students are not worried about it getting stolen. The big thing with phone pockets is they can feel like a punishment for students that are not being disruptive so my philosophy with phone pockets is to only use them during instructional time and allow the students to have the phones back after the lesson is over. |

Simply asking them to put their phones away should work. However, there are boundaries that need to be set in your classroom to make sure that it doesn't happen again. Setting those boundaries will allow for a more functional class period, where the students are engaged and learning instead of goofing off. |

I would first ask the students to put their phones away and I would later have a conversation with them about how the use of phones during class as well as recording videos is not allowed. If they do not listen, I would contact the parents. |

Ask the student to put away their phones. Its not the time for that and if they do their work you can come to a compromise later, but they have to be respectful to where they are and who is in the video. A teacher should not be a video with their students. |

I do not think it is appropriate for students to be videoing in the classroom, there can be some students in the video who might not want to be and its not the place. If they want to outside the classroom in open spots on campus that might be acceptable. But it can also make you look bad if someone sees the video taking place in your class. |

I would have an increasing ramp of disapproval. First simply look over at them, disapprovingly. Then, perhaps ask them specifically. Pull them aside the next time and directly ask them to stop. If things still go beyond that, you may need to look into what your schools policy is on apprehending phones. It may help if you allow certain uses of it for classroom work, for example maybe allowing a custom video in an assignment. This would use that love of the phone, and also showcase there are times it should be and shouldnt be used. |

This could be handled by taking the device away entirely if it's causing a big disruption. There should be some rule in place and enforced about students being on and having their phones out in the classroom, whatever this rule is should be consistently followed and enforced. |

There should be class rules stated about cellular devices. If the cellular device rule for the class is broken and students are not listening to the teacher addressing the problem or are repeat offenders they should be reprimanded accordingly. |

In my classroom students are not allowed to even have their phones out. I think if you make it a rule that they put their phones in a designated safe place at the beginning of class and then they can collect them at the end of the day, then this could possibly solve the problem. |

Deal with the issue by gently reminding them of the classroom regulations, requesting them to put their gadgets away during classes, and highlighting the value of concentration and consideration for others' learning processes. |

I do not think that putting phones away is a good idea since some schools let students use their phones for in-classroom exercises. I think that social media rules should be placed not just in school rules, but classroom rules. |

I believe their is a time and place. If the students are done with homework and are being considerate and not playing music/have earbuds in then what is the problem? If you do have an issue with this make sure you offer alternatives as to what they can do because limiting their activities can cause them to act out. |
