  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!)
A solution could be to have other consequences other than confiscating the phone. Classroom privileges could be taken away for students who have their phones out. Or another solution would be to use positive rewards for having phones put away as a way to motivate the students.

Comments: as long as these consequences are specifically talked about and made a plan with students beforehand, i am all about a system if the behavior gets out of control.
