The use of cell phones by students should be encourage

I rebut against my opponent argument. According to him or her statement ,he or she stated that "we are advancing in technology" In modern traditional days we communicate through drums but this days we use phone to communicate which make us lazy and dependant on machines ,we go to farm with combine harvester,tractors etc this decrease the skills of our knowledge. To proceed to my argument the Classroom , Technology, Mobile Phone In modern classrooms, instructors face many challenges as they compete for students' attention among a variety of communication stimuli. Rapid growth of mobile computing, including smart phones and tablets, presents a double-edged problem: along with previously unimaginable access to information come previously unforeseen distractions. Of wide concern to many instructors is the potential distraction caused by students using their mobile devices to text, play games, check Facebook, tweet, or engage in other activities available to them in a rapidly evolving digital terrain. That concern has potential merit; recent statistics from the Pew Foundation show that the median number of daily texts for older teens rose from 60 in 2009 to 100 in 2011 (Lenhart, 2012 ). Moreover, 64% of teens who own cell phones have texted during class, even in schools where cell phones are technically banned (Lenhart, Ling, Campbell, & Purcell, 2010 ). Those texts potentially come at the expense of learning, as texting during class reduces students' ability to self-regulate and give sustained attention to classroom tasks (Wei, Wang, & Klausner, 2012 ). Cell phones, and the broader array of digital mobile devices, pose unique communication challenges for both users and those with whom they interact. Some critics argue that texting and other digital communication behavior potentially diminish key social skills like effective listening. As one commentator noted, "We think of phones as a communication tool, but the truth is they may be just the opposite" (Skenazy, 2009 , np). Other views suggest that people are adapting to new communication norms in an increasingly digital world, learning to quickly attend to, process, and respond to multiple and sometimes simultaneous messages (Davidson, 2011 ). Given the many possible ways that digital communication tools will continue to influence practices of teaching and learning (Schuck & Aubusson, 2010 ), instructional communication scholars should enact programmatic research to understand how these tools impact classroom communication and subsequent learning outcomes. The present study builds on past research by examining whether texting or posting to a social network site has negative impacts on students' note-taking behaviors and subsequent performance on exams. To resolve my argument,cell phones brings about Disrespect : Cell phones are so small these days and using them surreptitiously that detecting their use is difficult. The issues of cyber-bullying, sexting, and other forms of serious misconduct are increasingly common and easier to conceal with cell phone technology. Cell phones in the hands of problem students just make the problems harder to discern and harder to handle. Some argue that the teen angst common in that age group is exacerbated with cell phone use: everything from gossip to sexuality becomes a bigger issue when cell phones are involved.
