10/25 Cell Phone Distractions

I think most student i school's that allow portable devices are distracted by the device, but the others aren't. The students that are distracted most likely are very mobile device friendly; with Facebook, twitter, and etc. The others that aren't distracted may not be device friendly or they can just ignore the fact of being distracted by the device.i have a cell phone and it does distract me sometimes but it also helps me as well.

10/24 Portable devices

I think most student i school's that allow portable devices are distracted by the device, but the others aren't. The students that are distracted most likely are very mobile device friendly; with Facebook, twitter, and etc. The others that aren't distracted may not be device friendly or they can just ignore the fact of being distracted by the device. When I'm outside i see that people are distracted because a lot of people text and walk at the same time. Most people were getting hit by cars and creating accidents. Most states even have laws against text and walking. A lot of teachers don't like the mobile devices because they also feel that they are distracting to students.

10/21 My Tablet

i think the tablet will help us do homework and anything else potable wise. my opinion on the tablet is that most teachers would be very frustrated with the students that are using the tablets. but they wouldn't be able to do anything because the school advised it. i could tell what teacher was against the tablets because the tell you in some sort of way that they don't like it.
One teacher that i had told a student i don't know why they got those things it would only distract you from doing things in class. that just showed me that that person was against having the tablets in school.i think that the tablets can do both but the teachers wanted this to because most of them are very lazy. they don't want to check anything so they wanted the tablets.

10/20 CyberBully

You should never send emails,texts,or IM's when your upset to another person because you are letting that person get the best out of you. The  best thing to show someone is no response. if you do that it would get them so angry they would start to just send you more stuff. after that the best thing you should do is block or delete that person's number. if that doesn't work just saved the text and emails , then tell someone that you trust to a person that you trust.
