Reflection on Cell phones in the classroom debate
this week we worked on how to debate and a common topic was chosen, cell phones and how they affect the classroom.
POSITIVES
- strong ideas were gathered
- some members spoke with a strong/confident voice
NEGATIVES
- some speakers were not so high in confidence
- more facts need to be in the speeches
OPINION
I Believe that cell phones should not be part of the classroom as they are a distraction and limit learning time. Here are some reasons, why to believe this:
1) They can get in the way and distract students 2) They can go on social media and could talk to anyone! 3) Who knows what the kids could be doing on them they could search for anything.
This is a great topic to debate Henry and I think a problem in a lot of schools. How did your debate? Did the audience support the use of cell phones or did the side with your team's opinions? Elizabeth
