I've already answered this but since it seems you're looking to be agreeable I'll just say it again to get it out nice and clear. Take their device away, give them detention after repeated incidents, dock their participation grades. Same thing you would do to any troublemaker or student who is goofing off or distracting others when they weren't using devices. As for finding out if they are goofing off, there are assistants. Even if a classroom doesn't happen to have assistants, the teacher isn't going to be at one spot the whole period. They can move around the room while talking to see the screens of each student. Sure, students can hide multiple times a day every time that happens but if they're that dedicated they probably aren't the type of student who'd be very studious even with no electronics too.How about we take it to the near future of student monitoring Chinese school used AI to monitor students https://digitaledition.chicagotribune.com/tribune/article_popover.aspx?guid=11858e27-1f9d-434c-b53c-ab397b25e732 Cameras, software used to evaluate teenagers behavior Using the latest artificial intelligence software, the devices tracked students behavior and read their facial expressions, grouping each face into one of seven emotions: anger, fear, disgust, surprise, happiness, sadness and what was labeled as neutral. Think of it as a little glimpse of the future. While American schools, as well as students and parents, are worrying about the increased emphasis on standardized tests and the loss of classroom freedom that comes with teaching to the test China has carried things to a whole new level. Here, the surveillance cameras took the data on individual facial expressions and used that information to create a running score on each student and class. If a score reached a predetermined point, the system triggered an alert. Teachers were expected to take action: to talk to a student perceived to be disengaged, for example, or overly moody. https://www.latimes.com/world/la-fg-china-face-surveillance-2018-story.html I can see a future world where every student in every class has cameras in all 4/8 corners of the class room, monitoring all students behaviors and recording them, making sure they're paything attention and documenting things.

Yes, there's cellular data but that's not as practical, especially for laptopsThe best 4G LTE laptops in 2021 https://www.laptopmag.com/best-picks/best-4g-lte-laptops Too late, Wireless Cell connections have already come to LapTops The genie is out of the bottle, and it ain't going back SerperiorThanU posted... Have the parents not have or have limited internet and SMS access on their data.That sounds an awful like what we had with DumbPhones and the recent resurgence of modern DumbPhones. It'd be cheaper on parents to hand children a modern DumbPhone than a pricey SmartPhone to bring to school. Back to Basics: The Best Non-Smartphones https://theinformr.com/cell-phones/p/best-basic-phone/ SmartPhones aren't nearly as useful if they don't have Internet connection, at that point, you might as well give the kid a DumbPhone, they aren't missing out on that much without the internet.

There's also the fact that some classes will have moments where you're using laptops for doing assignments, sharing essays, and practicing presentations, and moments where you're not like having a big group discussion or doing hands-on work.For most of my generation, we did those things in person, on paper, together in groups. We huddled our Tables/Seats together and just did things together. Face to Face. Talking/Discussing/Laughing/etc. Older teachers who don't know how to handle electronics or prepare lessons that utilize electronics would probably be better off doing what they're used to too with a classroom without electronics.Most of my teachers used their computers to make all the assignments and printed out everything to hand to each student in each class. We always have our 3-ring binder filled with countless assignment sheets. --- Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T - Johnny Depp 'Once Upon A Time in Mexico' ... Copied to Clipboard! |
