There is a problem in schools with smart phones and most teachers would prefer if these phones were banned. Sometimes a little humor will do more to solve a problem than a lengthy investigation. Miss Suzy, a Gen Y er has a dozen friends over for the evening where they plan to look at their phones. When texting became popular, my first thought was that it would help students with their reading and writing but that was not to be the case. If you look at what they punch in with their thumbs you would understand that this cannot help with writing. One saving technology coming down the road may salvage the whole tech issue. They will get to the point where you voice your text on your end and the other end uses voice to hear the text. We will then have progressed back to talking except there will be an intermediary in a satellite 18,000 miles up. At the dinner table everyone could save $30 per month by talking to each other if they just forget about texting.
