This resulted in loss of learning and even disciplinary consequences. \r\n\r\nHowever, now that there is a safe place for cell phones to be locked away, I was able to modify classroom expectations. Students are much more personally responsible for the proper use of their personal devices. \r\n\r\nAdditionally, now that students are distraction free, they have deepened their focus on academics. Grades are increasing, and they are learning how to collaborate in more effective ways.\r\n\r\nLastly, other teachers are following suit, requesting cell phone lockers, and increasing learning in their classrooms.
