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!) Some say that it is helpful to incorporate cell phones into the classroom, but I feel as though it is difficult to trust high school students with the responsibility of using their phones for academic purposes only. I would have a phone bucket at the door of the classroom for them to drop them off and pick them up on the way out.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: like this solution Rated On: October 19, 2019 6:11 pm Rated By: hunyry                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case No The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original No Comments: trust is needed for a student-teacher relationship. there are ways to confirm if they have done their assignments or are doing well in the class. if it comes to your attention that they are doing other things, address that individually and with the class as needed.
