battling cell phones....really?


gosh - if we only realized....the things we are asking for are in the room with us. free to us. being wasted on and adding to triteness.

take a look at this post, especially the comments from ira socol.

i keep hearing november - ....who owns the learning...

funny - the more we give it up - how the trite conversations on their phones diminish. they become too busy using it to learn.

respectfully - notice - when we don't give it up - how trite our battles are.

gosh - if we could only listen to students more. it's not about them being disrespectful, it's about them being disengaged.
