[Coach Norm]

The school I teach allows students to have cell phones. Students are not to use them during class but we have many that do. If you are using it during class, a teacher has the right to take it away until the end of the period. The second time it goes to the administration office and stays there until the end of the day. The third time, your parent has to come pick it up from the administration office.

Some teachers even students use them in class. I allow students to use it as a calculator if they do not have one otherwise.

We have a math teacher who has the students use text messaging in class. Another teacher used camera phones in class to help teach some concepts.

I am looking at some software that allows people to vote via cell phones during a presentation.

We used the program JOTT team to communicate with each other this year as well.
