  Case: Cell Phones
I am an intern in a high school EBD classroom. The students have great difficulty putting their cell phones away, and often ignore me the asked or take it right back out. We are not supposed to confiscate the phones. What should I do to get them to put their phones away?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
There are interactive games called Kahoot that students can play with on their phones but if they switch taps it signs them out of the game. It is a great game and students love it! Kahoot is a game that teachers can make for their students

Comments: I love Kahoot, however, it does not always sign you out when you switch to a different app on your phone. Although students may be participating in the activity, they can simultaneously be texting.
