I am actually cool with this

Students find ring tone adults can’t hear – Wireless World – MSNBC.com

I really haven’t discussed this with other teachers but as long as the phone doesn’t distrupt my train of thought, I don’t really care.

In fact, I told my summer school students today, as I made sure that my ringer was off, that if they needed a calculator, feel free to use the one in their phone — and then whipped my phone out about 20 minutes later when I needed a calculator.

I honestly don’t even care if they text message as long as it doesn’t bother my train of thought and they aren’t cheating.
