I sometimes find it concerning that a student has a laptop or is facedown in a cellphone. Some of them take notes in their cell phone and laptops, but most times I find that they are actually on Facebook or focusing on something that is not the topic of discussion. Then they usually do poorly on the test. I hate to make them put away these devices that they live through, or restrict the ones that legitimately use this technology. Does anyone have any suggestions for controlling this for the benefit of the student?
