Digital Devices-- YES AGAIN!
Many of you have different opinions about bringing digital devices to school. If you could bring ONE digital device to school to help you learn, what would it be? How would that device help you learn? (For example, if you pick an I-Phone, I am curious to know how an I-Phone might help you learn? What could you use it for?)

I would like to be able to bring my i-pod to school because i belive that with this device, it will help me concetrate with my work. And ill get my work done faster. Because when i listen to my i-pod i get work done faster and it actually gets stuck in my head. Its also good for putting your notes on their. Because it gets boring just sittin there in the quiet. Its annoying because its just so quiet.
ReplyDeleteWell you could use a I-Phone as a calculator or on the internet, and still pay attention in class, but one of the devices i would bring to school would be my phone.
ReplyDeletei think that we should be allowd to bring music player because some people consentrate more like that but it should be allowd only when we are doing work not when the teacher is talking
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree with you more, Stephanie. You could use your I-phone to research stuff on the internet or create a really cool podcast about something you have learned. What a much more cool way to show the teacher you know something than to do a yucky poster. Great thinking!
ReplyDeleteMaybe i'll help the student because when the student listens to music it gets their mood on and when they get to school (they take the bus to school and listen to music) their happy beacause they listen to a song they like>
ReplyDeletei would like to bring a small laptop so we have so accses to more places or probably an iphne cause is like a smaller laptop. . . .
ReplyDeleteI think teachers, counselors, and principles should be more leneant when it comes to cell-phones. If you see it and we're not playing around with it then don't take it away. That's dumb.
ReplyDeleteIn my school SWMS it woudl be more better that we use the best electrical devices right now, from SWMS.
ReplyDeletei would bring an iphone because we could use as reasearch in class while also listening to music we like
ReplyDeleteThe I phone could help us by searching up stuff in Google for example.If you have a project about animals or cells or anything else you can just go and use ur I phone or psp.The school could provide us something like that then we could just pay half of the price for the electronic device.
ReplyDeleteDo you all think more kids have an iphone or a laptop at home? Do most of your friends have access to the internet outside of school?
ReplyDeletei would bring a g1 cuz it has complete access to internet
ReplyDeletei would want to be able to use eaither or ipod or our cell phones
ReplyDeleteNot everyone has an I-Phone. So I dont think it would be fair that all these other students have something and most [some) are singled out. It would be best for the district to cool down about bringing MP3's and Phones. Dont take it away imediatly just let them have it while its off atleast.
ReplyDeletei think that we should be able to bring electronices cause some electronices help u constentrate like ipods mp3s and i phones
ReplyDeleteProvide students with better supplies. Dont spend the schools money on something not even important to the kids learning.
ReplyDeleteMy Cell Phone just because i think it will help me&& The Schoolsz Shouldnt Make a Big deal over us haveing our cell phonesz out! <33
ReplyDeletelaptops!!!!because it has internet...and for example whenerver you are doing a project you can reserch on it or on whatever you want.We can also use ipods or phones they are so fun!even thoug i don't have an ipod but some of the students do.
ReplyDeleteEither a laptop or an MP3 player. A laptop can help you do things like solve math problems. An MP3 player can help us, too. Music helps me study. So, if we could listen to our MP3 player while we're working, that would be cool (I mean, if we're too busy listening to the music so we don't do the work, that's OUR fault).

Its said that people concentrate more on the thing they are doing while listening to music. We should be allowed to bring an I-Phone. We can take notes in it so we wont have to worry about writing...or sloppy writers.
ReplyDeleteFrom;SWMS.
I would choose a laptop because its just about the same thing as a computer but portable
ReplyDeleteit would be a phone for calculater and music players ms.mclure rules and ms.lambert
ReplyDeleteDo most kids have a phone with internet? Not necessarily an I-Phone, but another kind of phone? Or, are most phones kids have for calling people and texting?
ReplyDeleteI would bring my Ipod, because it helps me concentrate while listening to music doing class work, not when the teacher is teaching.
ReplyDeleteMY psp so i could use the internet insted of going to the computer lab ^_^
ReplyDeleteAsael Estrada
I think that bringing devices like a cell phone to school would be good... and i have one very interesting idea of a way we could use it but it would be good for teachers too... if we get bored after we've done all of our work and we've done it right... we get to be on our cell phones... and when the teachers tell us we have to put it up we will..
ReplyDeleteI would bring an i-phone because I could GOOGLE for information.
ReplyDeleteI would bring my DS so that I could play math games to help me learn math. A DS would make math fun.
ReplyDeleteI want to invent a machine to bring to school that would teach me HARD math.
ReplyDeleteIt would be a phone.
ReplyDeleteboth ipods and i-phones would be good both could help you learn in some ways
ReplyDeletei would like if we could bring i pod touches to school because we could use the internet to do research and listen to music too or if the school could provide us with one that would cool
ReplyDeleteWow if i was to bring only one device to school i would bring my iPod to school.I would bring it becuase most of the time music helps kids concentrate better.I do concentrate better.I would love to bring my iPod.

SWMS!!!!!!!!CHYEA GO HAWKS!!
Yes, I think we should have more Technology(i think i spelled it wrong)but anyways the more cool stuff the funner it is and we would learn more if is fun...I know i do
ReplyDeleteWow- RCE in PGP- hard math???? I am not very good at math. I would love to meet you. Maybe you could teach me a thing or two!
ReplyDeletei would bring my PSP to researcch
ReplyDeleteI would bring my ipod touch to school because it can go on websites while you are in class and it can help you with your project.GO SWMS
ReplyDeleteYes I Think We Should Be Able To Bring Cell Phones To School Because What If It Is An Emergancy & You Have No Way To Get Ahold Of Us.
ReplyDeleteCell Phone i think itsz not a distaction&itsz helpful haha:] -Clarissa garcia;D
ReplyDeleteWe have phones to text basically.
ReplyDeleteWe are looking at making I-Touch available on campuses for kids to use. Your library should already have some of this kind of technology. do you all at SWMS get to go to the library when you need to go (for research and stuff)?
ReplyDeleteI think mobile devices for school is an excelent idea, if the school would let me, I would bring my Nokia N810, I have a TI Emulator I use on there I use so I don't have to buy an actual TI calculator for about 100$, I'm pretty sure there are TI emulators for Ipod touch as well, this will definately useful. These mobile devices could also help students access teacher's blogs, SBISD website, etc.

hi. my name is brandon andrade and im a senior at spring woods high. i think i would like to bring my cell phone because it has music to help me relax, and a clock to help me keep track of time. also i could text my friends instead of getting in trouble for talking lol.
ReplyDeletei go to SWHS and i really wish i could bring my laptop to class instead of having to carry around a binder i could be able to carry it around and i would never again lose an assignment because it would be on the computer
ReplyDeletespringwoods student,
ReplyDeletei would bring my iphone because instead of going to the library..you can get look it up on your phone.
I attend Spring Woods High,
ReplyDeleteIf i could choose a digital device it would be a cell phone. I wouldnt use it to learn just to chat with other people.I think any digital device would be a distracton to learn
I would bring a laptop because you can get done with your work a lot faster and i think you can learn more stuff like that to me
ReplyDeleteSpring Wood High
I would choose the I-Touch because there are many useful and helpful apps that can be used for school work. One cool thing teachers can use is a feature called podcasts. A podcast is a video recording that can be used for many ocassions like, assigining homework or projects, also give explanations for specific things.
ReplyDeleteBringing a ipod would be great. It helps me do my work.
ReplyDeleteSudent laptops would help us learn by loading texts books loaded onto the laptop. This would help by that each student could contact the teacher for help.
ReplyDelete-SWHS student, Alex Richardson
If I could bring one digital device to help me learn it would be my iPod Touch, Because I can use the internet to do research.
ReplyDeleteWell I'm not really sure, but probably a laptop. Just so we can have the textbooks online, and if the teacher needs us to type a paper we have something to type it on. I know we have school computers, but it's not open during the weekend, and some students don't have transportation to the local library.
ReplyDeleteRobert Arnold, Spring Woods High School
At Spring Woods, I believe we should be able to use our electronics during lunch. it is our only free time of the day at school. I also know it could cause problems with people texting people that are already in class, but I believe if that person in class is texting, then they will have to suffer there punishment because they know they can just text when it’s their turn at lunch or listen to their music or anything.
ReplyDeleteIm from Spring Woods and i have acouple of things that I think would help me learn. First I would like my I-pod,or mp3 because this way I would cosintrait because im shut off from other destactions. Next labtops the school system waists money on things every year. If the school system got labtops for every student they could have down loaded text books and lessons could be on the computer. It would make the load of things that we have to carry go way down
ReplyDeletei would bring an iphone because it is small and portable and has internet access,a calculator and youtube for videos so u could see current events and educational videos
ReplyDeletei dont want to be negative but people could use the music player to play there tests answers or notes without anyone knowing
ReplyDeleteI would bring my iPod because I have a way to download review sheets onto it and then I can study during school! Also music is a way that I concentrate better so I could listen to music without distracting anyone else.
ReplyDeleteA laptop. It has the whole packet - internet, calculator, word processor, and music player. it would make taking notes so much quicker and would leave more time for hands-on activities, it also would reduce paper use.

ReplyDeleteAn itouch because it has music, internet, calculator, and other things that can be used for school research. But its not a phone so there wont be any texting.
My name is Al, I'm a senior at Stratford, and I have a voice recording device on my Iphone that if I could use it, would help me to retain information. As an audio learner, this would be great for studying. recording devices should be allowed, even if it is the Iphone.
ReplyDeleteMy name is Samantha Ehlinger and I'm a junior at Stratford and I would love to be able to bring my laptop. Taking notes on a computer is much easier than taking them on paper, and they never get lost! I could record notes with an audio recording device or type them up on word or text edit. It would be a very easy way to stay organized, plus I could access the online textbooks for my classes and not have to bring those to school either!

ReplyDeleteif we can bring an i pod to school. We can add a app on the i pod. For the thing that we need help on. some of the students don't under stand some teachers and the app mate help us a lot more.
ReplyDeleteIf we could bring laptops to school it would be assume. i think this because when our teacher tells us to take notes some people have bad hand righting to if you have a laptop you don't have to worry about hand writing. Also i think this because some people use the computer so much that they have fun do anything with it.I say thins because i don't think i have the best right and when i rush (witch i do all the time) my hand writing is allover the place. I think this would really help. I a student from Spring Wood Middle School think we should have laptops.
ReplyDeleteIf someday all of the schools could have i phones I would have the teachers keep them away until needed. Sometimes a few kids will need to go to the library beacause we dont have computers in the class room. Its like a tiny computer that doesnt take up space. It's a good idea- Spring Branch Middle
ReplyDeleteLaptops would be nice. Spring Branch Middle School would supply laptops for students. It would help with projects, homework, or anything else that needed to be done.
ReplyDeleteI would like to bring a mac laptop to school because I could do my research in class instead of going to the computer lab. Also, if I had a question I could ask my teacher because she's in the room with everybody.
ReplyDeleteI would also use it to find answers for my questions on google.
The i phone would help you learn because, you can go on the internet to search up things you might need to know. Or check answers with your i phone calculater.

my name is alexis andi go to sbms we are allowed to bring our phones to school they just have to be off during the day I think that you all should consider this also I think you should be allowed to bring electronics to class but only for educational uses
ReplyDeleteI think we shoyld have mac labtops instead of dell computers because they dont go as fast as macs do!
ReplyDeleteI think we should be allowed to, because you the school administrators can decide what to allow on the phone and what not to allow
ReplyDeleteMan i just my freakin fone in class cause i lik it and i can goof off
ReplyDeleteI think that we should be able to bring our ipod to school because in my oppinion Music helps me pay more attention to my work! I think that it would be awesome if we could take our Ipod to school! Spring Branch Middle School
