Nowadays, practically everyone has a cell phone, and most would agree they are a great convenience. Still, they are the subjects of tremendous controversy. Do they cause cancer? Do they cause car accidents? And perhaps most importantly for millions of students, should cell phones be banned at school?

Many students depend on cell phones to coordinate plans with their friends and family. Mobile phones are especially useful for obtaining rides home from after-school activities. In that context, cell phones most definitely should be available for student use on school property. The question is where and when may they make calls.

The smartest move is to let all students keep their phones with them on campus, but to ban cell phone use ring school hours.

Certainly, people shouldnt be gabbing it up with their friends ring a lecture. Cell phones are a luxury-- not a necessity-- for students. Class is a time and place where learning should take priority over everything else. Cell phones do not belong in the classroom, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed at school.

So what's the point of having cell phones on campus if students can't use them ring school hours? The availability of convenient communication. Most schools have pay phones at students disposal if it becomes necessary for outside contact to be made, but these phones are nowhere as immediate or convenient as a cell phone.

Letting students carry phones on campus allows them this freedom. However, whether schools do the right thing and avoid complete bans on cell phones is strictly their call.

post your email and i will send some papers to u.

The arrival of the cellular (mobile) phone and its rapid and widespread growth may
well be seen in historical context as one of the most significant developments in the
fields of communication and in information technology over the past two decades
(Plant, 2000). The growth has been phenomenal by any standards and Rice and Katz
(2003) claim that there are now worldwide more mobile phone subscribers than fixed
line subscribers and probably TV owners. By 1999 there were just under 500 million
mobile telephones being used world wide, yet US mobile users alone have increased
from 109 million in 2000 to 148.6 million in 2002 (see Aoki and Downes, 2003).
The increase in alt mobile phone ownership has been closely shadowed by an
increase amongst children and young people. One study has indicated that by January
2001, half of all 7- to 16-year-olds were mobile owners (National Opinion Poll,
2001a). Additionally, in 1999, 34% of 16- to 22-year-olds and approximately 28% of
10- to 19-year-olds owned a mobile (see Aoki and Downes, 2003) and by 2001 it was
estimated that up to nine in 10 UK secondary school students had a mobile (Selwyn,
2003).
Although the reasons for the growth in mobile phone ownership are sometimes
the same factors as might be described as the benefits of ownership, the two sets of
factors can be distinguished. For example, the profits to be made by their promotion
and proction fall into the first category and not into the second. The technological
advances that proce ever more sophisticated and elaborate features on mobile
phones, for example, phone mail, voice mail, games facilities, and for those with
third generation (3G) mobiles, multimedia messaging and Internet access may
sometimes be a reason for purchase, but may not always or necessarily constitute a
significant benefit to the owner.
Some of the benefits of mobile phone ownership are more practical than fundamental
or central but are certainly not without significance. For example, once
purchased the non-fixed mobile phone can take and make calls at any time and any
place (Plant, 2000) whilst loosening the structures that once regulated indivials’
lives as well as enhancing indivial mobility (Kopomaa, 2002) and social efficiency
(Katz and Aakhus, 2002). Additionally, the range of phone-features for the mobile,
and the payment methods, offer more choice; and the competition between hand-set
manufacturers and between service providers seem likely to maintain these options.
Thus, convenience, mobility and choice are terms that characterise many of the
factors in this area of benefit.
Indeed, other benefits of mobile phone usage could be described as more psychological
and social than technical or practical. For example, Leung and Wei
(2000), in Hong Kong, list seven factors of gratification sought through mobile
phone ownership: fashion/status, affection/sociability, relaxation, mobility, immediate
access, instrumentality and reassurance. Additionally, Aoki and Downes’
(2003) research with American college students found the main reasons for purchasing
a mobile to be safety (for when driving at night), for cost effectiveness, for
instant information (e.g., phone numbers), for social interaction with friends and
family, and for privacy.
