My Personal Insight about The Use of Cellphone in Classroom

       In this era, technology is used in almost every aspects in life. As an example, cellphones, it could do anything, really. We could communicate, we could read books, we could play musics and games, etc. As a student, I believe that the use of cellphone in class could be beneficial. According to our latest curriculum, teachers should persuade their students to learn by themselves whatsoever. In that case, most students choose to study on the internet (and use their cellphones, of course) because some of them have no time or money to buy/borrow books. But somehow, some students use it for bad things such as cheating, using it in class and not paying attention to the teacher, etc. In conclusion, the use of cellphone in classroom is beneficial, but we as a student should use it wisely.
