Many educators struggle to figure out how to use electronic devices in the classroom. Some educate students about the negative effects and encourage them to regulate their use. Others even emphasized the possible uses of mobile devices in classrooms. However, many people just try to ban everything. A school principal in British Columbia raised the school’s ban to a new level by setting up cell phone jammers. There is only one problem-the device is illegal in Canada. The director ordered the Chinese device online, but some angry students quickly discovered it and told him it was illegal. This idea is very important. It looks bad now, and the use of mobile phones in schools seems to be a civil right for some students.
Mobile phone affects learning initiative
Almost all students in the school now have mobile phones. To make matters worse, mobile phones have become a "weapon" used by many students against teachers. In the lecture, most students were found to use mobile phones to surf the Internet. Many students listen to music or play video games during class. It is very common for a mobile phone to ring suddenly during a lecture in a classroom, and it is often distracting. Even worse, some students are using their mobile phones to help them cheat.... According to reports, a new phenomenon "cyber bullying" indicates that students communicate electronically while torturing others through text messages and social networks. Pay attention to class.
Some countries/regions allow companies and government organizations to install GSM jammer in areas where the use of mobile phones is considered public harassment. In December 2004, France legalized mobile jammers in movie theaters, concert halls and other places through performances. France is completing a technology to transfer emergency calls to emergency calls. India has installed jammers in parliaments and some prisons. According to reports, Italian universities have adopted techniques to prevent fraud. Students use camera phones to take photos of the test and send them to classmates.
Since the classroom is usually not very large, it is recommended to carry and operate a portable mobile phone jammer that is very convenient. All you have to do is press the button to turn it on. You certainly don’t have to worry about emergency situations where someone might need to make a call. You can walk out of the classroom and make calls without disturbing others. Or, you can simply turn off the jammer unit as needed.
Mr. MacNeil has taken measures to prevent its past use, including the purchase of signal jamming equipment, which will interrupt the service. He said that this device is considered illegal, but no one in the United States has been charged for possessing such a device. Mr. MacNeil added that when he bought Jammer, he was discussing the issue with teachers in nearby classrooms who were fully supported. Since this jammer is outdated, it is less effective. It can only block 3G signals at best, and students with smartphones can still use WiFi.
My friend has a professor who will simply ask the students to stand up and read aloud the content of the text message, and then explain the conversation related to it. His usual words are: "Since your text message is much more important than the course I am going to teach, please share with us so that we can all benefit from your information." After reading the first embarrassing text, The cell usage rate dropped sharply. It is not appropriate to use a short-range cell jammer during the inspection. I believe that professors have an obligation to do everything in their power to prevent cheating in exams.
